We're eating enormous amounts of fresh raw food from the garden. Every day we take a bushel basket and head down to collect the daily harvest; we come back with our bellies full and our basket wanting. No dishes! And the kids love it because they think there's something naughty about 'stealing' food right off the ...
My range blew up today. It could be a sign that we're ready to make the leap to raw; more likely, the appliance heard us talking about the new V*****x I'm getting as a late Mum's Day gift, and it was literally 'shattered'. How long can we go without replacing it? I'm eager to find out. I have ...
I don't want to be a "raw foodie". I want to eat raw food. Why? I want to save time. I want to save energy. I want to gain energy. I want my meals to take longer to eat than to prepare. I want my meals to take longer to eat than to clean up. I want to stop cooking. ...
The basics of 'how to juice' are in every manual and at every keyboard; what is harder to find is real advice on how to convert. Chunky jungle juice is NOT a necessary evil on the Path to Invincibility. I found this out the hard way. Of course, my definition of "chunky jungle juice" has changed now ...
Tonight for supper, we had a raw taco salad and a green juice. The juice was one of the best yet - a variation on Juice Me Green Baby! but somehow a notch above. Try this: Juice Me Green Too! 1 large bunch green kale 1 medium field cucumber 1/2 large bunch parsley 1/2 lemon, unpeeled 1 inch chunk of ginger, ...
I've been having a green juice every day for several days now. My favourite concoction is as follows: . . . . . . Juice Me Green Baby! 1 bunch fresh spinach 1/2 bunch of celery 1/2 bunch of cilantro or parsley 1/2 peeled lemon 1 inch chunk of peeled ginger (or 1/4 tsp powder) Run all ingredients through a juicer in the order listed. (If using ginger ...
Herb gardens, salad gardens, cutting gardens, butterfly gardens, knot gardens, rock gardens, water gardens, rose gardens, wildlife gardens, potagers. What about a juicing garden? I've reorganized and replotted my garden four times already. The latest version includes a juicing garden, designed to ease my transition to an 80% raw foods diet. Some of the best juicing choices are ...
This week I dusted off my 'new juicer' and tried some of my old favourites. This is my second juicer. I purchased it about 3 years ago because my first one, which worked fine, sounded like a chainsaw every time I started it up, so I couldn't use it while the babes were sleeping. The new one ...
The first time I made almond milk was eight years ago. It was relatively easy, and satisfying to make, but it tasted like chalk. It hadn't occurred to me that my almonds were stale. The maddening thing was, they had been organic almonds purchased, in bulk, at my local health food store. From then on, I decided to ...
I bought a beautiful bunch of bright red/purple kale a few days ago. It looked pretty on the table. It looked pretty in the fridge too, a trophy vegetable to show the whole family Look at the nutritious foods we like to eat. Another day or two, of course, and it would be making me ...
So, I'm sitting here eating my raw vanilla ice cream, and I've finally got my raw crackers in the dehydrator, after waiting a day and a half for my raw macaroons to reach the perfect crispness, and I'm thinking It's time to come out of the closet. It's been over a year since I ...
