Bittermelon Okinawan Style

According to my health-conscious Philippina friend, bittermelon is very nutrition, especially for women as it's iron-rich. Well, what female doesn't need bittermelon ... but a word of caution for the unsuspecting, the vegie ... is ... very ... bitter. I actually like it, but I'm not going to eat it like I would a cucumber, although it goes very nicely raw mixed equally with cucumber. In that kind of salad, I grate the bittermelon and cut the cucumber in thin rings. With some cherry tomatoes or a little lemon juice and salt, it's quite the nice salad.

Sunflower Seed and Black-eyed-pea Hummus 1 cup sunflower seeds, soaked and drained 1 cup cooked black-eyed-peas with 1/2+ cup bean broth 2-3 large garlic cloves 1-2 tablespoons olive oil (optional) cumin turmeric sea salt The hummus spread on the raw,dehydrated lentil cracker (this one shaped like a personal pizza). My personal pizza - raw lentil cracker for the crust, hummus, cilantro pesto, fresh parsley and chopped tomatoes.
