Green or Red Salsa




6 or 8 Tomatoes (for Red Salsa) or Green tomatillos (for Green Salsa)
2 Garlic Cloves
1 Fresh raw JalapeƱo peppers for mild salsa  or  2 - 3 for hot salsa 
Sea salt to taste
1/2 cup of minced Cilantro
1/2 cup of minced Onion


Put tomatoes or tomatillos in a pot with enough water to cover them. Cook until they boil on high heat, then change the heat to medium and simmer for about 10 min. until they are soft.  Then using a blender or food processor CAREFULLY blend the tomatillos, Garlic, JalapeƱos and Salt.  When finished pour into serving bowl and then fold in the cilantro and Onion.


*TIP: Roasting method Cut in half and place cut side down on a foil-lined baking sheet. Place under a broiler for about 5-7 minutes to lightly blacken the skin. Or place on a griddle and roast the tomatoes or tomatillos and the Garlic as well. Turn each one on every side in order to get the skin lightly blackened.

Day 21: Success!!!!

                      I started this blog with the whole purpose of helping others by documenting our battle with PLEVA and hopefully finding a cure for my son.  Well, we have cured him completely with the help of a healthy diet and supplements that strengthened his immune system.  I ask all of you out there with Mucha-Habberman's disease or PLEVA to try this and hopefully, this also works for you. Keep in mind I am just a concerned mother and I am not a Dr. so you might want to consult with your Dr. and if you can find a Holistic Dr. all the better.                   Since my last entry on this blog things has changed for the better.  My son's PLEVA has been banished.  It has been since last Thursday - April 28, that we noticed he had no more new lesions.  The last day of our Elimination Diet was Friday - April 29.  We started integrating eggs into our diet, so Saturday and Sunday we ate eggs for breakfast and lunch or dinner.  Then we monitored for any changes on the third

The Beginning

  On March 11, 2011, my son (10 years old) had a punch biopsy on a lesion that he had on his leg. Earlier (in February) this year I had noticed him getting these lesions all over his torso, arms, and upper legs only. He didn't complain much as they didn't itch. I of course panicked and thought they were bed bug bites.  I felt so bad and thought that I should have vacuumed his mattress more often.     Of course, immediately I thoroughly cleaned his room, mattress, and bed sheets, wrapped his mattress with plastic, and disinfected his whole room.  The weird thing is that his sister had no lesions; they share a room and sleep in bunk beds.  I still went crazy cleaning every toy and every corner of the whole house. But the lesions kept appearing. So we went from Dr. to Dr. in order to find out what this was.  I did my research on these pediatricians and thought they had the experience in order to know what this was.  But they were all dumbfounded until finally we got referred t

Still no Pleva, YESS!!

It has been more than a week since my son's PLEVA has been banished and I am happy to report no new lesions!!   AWESOME!!
