Lazy mans tuna salad:

Garbage Stew:
Stuff you need:
2x Can of tomatoes
can of red beans
can of chick peas
2 cups of rice
bunch of chili powder (bunch of is a valid measurement, probably around a handful)
1/2 bunch of cayenne pepper
1/2 bunch of cumin
water to fill up remainder of pot
------------------------------
The recipe is simply to dump all of the above into a large pot and boil for 40 minutes. The reason its called garbage stew is it pretty much because it involves everything you have left over in your cupboard, fridge, or freezer and can be modified with ease.
Other things that have been added by me include:
2 cups of frozen green beans or corn
pound of ground beef (brown and drain the beef before adding it to the pot)
pound of ground round for the vegan crowd (shut up, I just like the taste of it)
any different type of beans you may have that aren't above
veggies you've fried before placing into stew (tried with carrots, celery and bok choy so far - use olive oil to do said frying and just dump it into the stew as well for extra flavour)
It easily turns into a massive pot of stew which you can keep leftovers in the fridge for microwaving later to eat throughout the week. Sometimes I'll add some bread or salad to eat on the side. Not for those trying to watch their sodium levels. Could possibly replace canned beans with dried versions to make it more sodium conscious. If going that route, boil the beans for 30 min before adding to stew.
i'm still sick but its been up and down, but the alkaline foods have been helping. i was surprised about the lemon too, but it really helps. i was telling my brother about it recently and he said his friends mother drinks lemon water all day when she's sick too. so, power to the lemons!! lol
