Recipe Monday!

Today's dish is a little eccentric, but it's always good to try new things. You never know if you like it or not unless you try it! The dish I'm promoting today is Creamy Cauliflower and Red Pepper Casserole. It contains cauliflower and little known fact about cauliflower promotes cancer prevention since cauliflower provides special nutrient support for three body systems that are closely connected with cancer development as well as cancer prevention. Delicious and good for you! A better combination can't be found!

Partake of the beautiful Lotus to inspire your mind. It sedates and seduces..

Lotus - Its God's favorite flower...Its mysticism may also be linked to the  mild narcotic or sedative effects   from flowers that are eaten, smoked or steeped in wine and drank. Also called the world's most beautiful flower, the lotus is the most sacred, and it seems there never was a time when man did not adore it.....Of all the myriad buds and blooms, the most revered and esteemed--by God and man--is the magnificent lotus in the sub continent and all across China and Japan. According to Buddhism and Hinduism, within each human inhabiting the earth is the spirit of the sacred lotus. It represents eternity, purity and divinity and is widely used as a symbol of life, fertility, ever-renewing youth and to describe feminine beauty, especially the eyes. One of the most common metaphysical analogies compares the lotus' perennial rise to faultless beauty from a miry environment to the evolution of man's consciousness--from instinctive impulses to spiritual liberation.
