Dr. Sunyattas Sensual Mango Salsa

This salsa is so good on its own you may be tempted to eat it straight from the bowl. A little bit of fresh Habanero pepper brings the heat to this concoction, but if you can’t track down fresh peppers just use Serrano or Jalapeno.

1 peeled mango, seeded and diced (about 2 cups)

1/4 cup minced white onion

2 tablespoons minced red bell pepper

1 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro

1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

1/2 teaspoon finely minced Habanero pepper

1/8 teaspoon salt

1tsp fresh grated ginger root

Peel mango and cut flesh from pit. Cut mango into 1/4-inch dice and in a small bowl toss with onion and lime juice. Stir diced jalapeno into salsa with coriander and salt and pepper to taste. Chill salsa, covered, at least 2 hours and up to 24. Enjoy it with someone you have a passion for!

Yields 2 1/3 cups.

Hot Healthy HUMMUS

Chickpeas are a powerful aphrodisiac, especially for men. In ancient Rome, Arabia and India they were fed them to stallions to keep them virile. Thats all we need to hear!

1 15 oz can (~1 1/2 c) chickpeas/garbanzo beans, rinsed and drained

½ cup pumpkin seeds

2 T extra virgin olive oil

2 T Udos omega 3 oil

6 T water (just over a third of a cup)

1/4 t lemon juice, preferably fresh

3/4 t salt

cayenne pepper to taste

2 cloves garlic, add more to taste

¼ tsp cayenne

Peel and crush the garlic. Let it sit a minute. Letting garlic ‘breathe’ a little before cooking enhances the bioavailability of its nutrients. Put everything in a food processor. Blend until smooth, and chill thoroughly.

Other options: add in parsley, cilantro, roasted peppers before blending
