Best Eggplant Walnut Pate By Dr Andrew Weil Recipes
EGGPLANT WALNUT PATE BY DR ANDREW WEIL
from his website. He writes, "Traditional pâtés are often made from high-fat meats and liver. They can be delicious and quite elegant, but less than nutritious. This vegetarian version is sophisticated, filled with flavor, and healthful. Enjoy it on a special occasion or as an everyday spread with whole-grain crackers."

DR. ANDREW WEIL'S GRILLED OR BROILED SALMON
This recipe is based on one from Dr. Andrew Weil's book, 8 Weeks to Optimum Health. Use wild salmon for optimum health benefits as it tastes better and is more nutritious, and eating it does not have the environmental impact of eating farmed salmon, nor the health risks associated with it. Cook time doesn't include the 1-3 hours marinating time in the 'fridge. This makes a great meal with rice and a cooked vegetable or salad.

UMAMI SAUCE
This intriguing sauce is easy to make. Most people can't guess what the ingredients are. Keep a jar in the fridge and use it for steamed vegetables, fish, rice, most anything. It's great on salads, but add it at the last minute so the greens don't wilt. From Colorado Homes magazine, taken from True Food, Seasonable, Sustainable, Simple, Pure by Dr. Andrew Weil MD, Sam Fox and Micheal Stebner.

ROBUST BEET SALAD BY DR ANDREW WEIL
Found this online. My crowd is big on beets and big on things with a hot kick. This looks very promising. Hope to try it soon. If you don't like to boil beets, you can surely roast them instead (yum), or, if in a pinch for time, use canned beets.

Steps:
- Cut off the beet tops about an inch above the beet. In a large pot cover the beets with three inches of cold water and bring to a boil. Cover and boil over medium heat until tender, about 45 minutes.
- Drain the beets under cool running water. Slip off their skins. Trim off stems and root ends and slice the beets thinly.
- Combine the sliced beets in a bowl with the other ingredients, add salt to taste, and chill. Stir several times.
- This salad will keep for a week in the refrigerator.

Substituting chicken livers/fat turns this into pate de foie gras de poulet. To make canapes with the Pâté de Poulet, add 1/4 cup cream and season with a little cayenne or Tabasco sauce and serve on toast rounds or buttery crackers.
