WHAT IS THE FOOD REVOLUTION?

"This Food Revolution is about saving America's health by changing the way people eat. It's not just a TV show; it's a movement for you, your family and your community. If you care about your kids and their future, take this revolution and make it your own. Educate yourself about food and cooking, and find out what your child is eating at school. Make only a few small changes and magical things will happen. Switching from processed to fresh food will not only make you feel better, it will also add years to your life. - JAMIE OLIVER

Greener Dishwasher Detergent

DateMay 5, 2010

This dishwasher detergent has worked quite well in our dishwasher. No yucky film and the dishes come out as clean as they would using the toxic detergents I used to use. This recipe does use some earth-friendly store bought detergent which I then "water down."

In a plastic container combine:

2 cups BORAX (Sam's Club or Costco)
2 cups BAKING SODA (Sam's Club or Costco)
2 cups SEVENTH GENERATION® DISHWASHER DETERGENT (Whole Foods)
4 packs generic Kool-Aid LEMONADE (about $0.17 a pack)
20-40 drops of ESSENTIAL OIL

Fill the main wash compartment with 2 tablespoons and the pre-wash with 1 tablespoon. I would love your feedback?
