Clean That Juicer!

Do you clean your juicer?

Sure, after each use you take it all apart for washing, but have you cleaned the actually juicer?

Don't stress, it's easy and takes a few seconds.

With your machine ready to go, combine 3 cups of Water with 1 cup of White Vinegar.  Set machine to low and slowly pour the mixture down the chute.  Be careful, the water could shoot back up.  Turn off the machine, empty the pitcher and repeat again with Water only.

That's it!

This doesn't need to be done with each use, but it wouldn't hurt either.

P.S. This trick works well for your coffee pot too!  Just run the same Water/White Vinegar concoction through one cycle and chase with pure Water for another cycle.

Ask The Hoff: Why Healthy Hoff?

Hello!

Why is your blog called Healthy Hoff and why do you sign-off as The Hoff?

Thanks!
Long time follower, first time commenter




Hello back!

Thanks for asking!  Well, my last name is Hoffman (hence the German references) and my friends nicknamed me Hoff and well I'm really into all things healthy, so the Healthy Hoff was born! I sign my posts as The Hoff as a shortened version of Healthy Hoff.  Make complete sense?  : /\ )

Keep It Healthy!

SSS: Corn, Mashed Potatoes & Gravy

This Super Simple Supper came together in under 10 minutes thanks to some canned organic corn, instant mashed potatoes and Simply Organic Vegetarian (it's really vegan) Brown Gravy Seasoning Mix.  All made via the stove top!

When I can't get organic corn from my local farmer, I opt for frozen or canned organic corn.  But, explore your options - I've found that some brands can be sweet and crisp, while others are dull and mushy.

Hoff's Kraut Soup

Hoff's Kraut Soup
Yields: about 10 cups
meat-free, dairy-free, egg-free, gluten-free


Ingredients:

• 6 cups Water
• 3 tbsp. Water
• 1 cup Sauerkraut Juice (reserved from Kraut)
• 2 15oz. cans diced Potatoes (rinsed & drained)
• 1 15oz. can Navy Beans (rinsed & drained)
• 2 cups Sauerkraut (rinsed)
• 2 vegan Sausages (chopped small)
• 1/2 medium Sweet Onion (chopped)
• 2 Garlic Cloves (minced)
• 1/3 cup Alstertor Dusseldorf Mustard
• Pepper to taste
• Sea Salt to taste

Directions:

1. Using a Blender - blend 1 can of Potatoes & 3 tbsp. Water until you get something resembling mashed potatoes (creamy, but lumpy), set aside
2. In a large stock pot over medium-high heat, sautee Onions until browned
3. Add Sausage and lightly brown
4. Add Garlic and stir constantly for 30 seconds to prevent burning
5. Pour in Water & Kraut Juice
6. Add Potatoes, blended Potatoes, Beans, Kraut & Mustard
7. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes
8. Season with Salt & Pepper

Hoff Thoughts: You should be able to get about a cup of Kraut Water from a 32 oz. container of Kraut, if not, just substitute with Water to get to 7 cups of liquid total.  I have found Alstertor Dusseldorf Mustard at Giant Eagle and World Market.  Just use your favorite Mustard if this one eludes you, but you can't get any more German than Dusseldorf!
