The Weird Economics of
Health Care
Now with all the complaints about the rising costs of health care, the one element no one seems to be looking at is the input of the patient. First of all, the consumer, or “patient,” should be told up front what will be done and how much it will cost, regardless of who pays. more

Recipe

The Whole-Food Guide to Strong Bones - A Holistic Approach
by Annemarie Colbin, Ph.D.

Cilantro Egg Drop Soup

Here is a quick, simple, and delicious soup. It makes for a nice light spring lunch when served with whole grain rye bread or crackers, Sardine Spread (page 225), and Asparagus with Slivered Almonds (page 160). Many variations are possible; just add 1/2 cup of any leftover cooked vegetable (chopped) or grain.

2 1/2 cups chicken stock

1/4 teaspoon sea salt

1 egg, well beaten

2 tablespoons chopped cilantro

Freshly ground pepper

1. Combine the stock and salt in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.

2. Lower the heat to medium-low and slowly pour the beaten egg to the boiling stock, stirring continuously with a fork (to keep the egg in strands) until the egg is cooked firm and stands out from the stock, about 1 minute. Serve immediately, topping each serving with 1 tablespoon of cilantro and freshly ground pepper to taste.

Makes 2 servings.
