Default Re: Calling all wanna-be RAW foodies! pics, recipes, & post your progress! Come on!!

O.k.--I'm starting new today. I plan to do raw for breakfast and lunch and eat whatever everyone else is having for dinner. This worked out well for me last year and I felt GREAT for the 4 months I did it.

So far today:

Cherry smoothie

1/3 bag frozen cherries
Frozen chopped spinach ( I prefer fresh, but this is what I have in the house) About 1/3 cup
1 cup soy milk
1 TBS slightly melted coconut oil (this way there are no chunks)
dash of agave nectar

I have also been known to add 1-2 TBS Raw cacao powder---mmm cherry/chocolate

I have Flax Crackers in the oven dehydrating:

1 cup flax meal (made by grinding whole flax seeds in my extra coffee grinder)
some Bragg's--go easy b/c it's salty
dash onion powder (can use garlic powder, add herbs or other spices)
water to make it pourable

Mix together, let sit for a couple of minutes then spread very thinly on a jellyroll pan or similar (I sprayed mine). Dehydrate in dehydrator or oven. After a couple of hours I flip the whole thing. When they are crisp you can break them up and put in a baggie or container.

I often eat these with sunflower seed paste:

sunflower seeds (raw, preferably soaked for a couple of hours)
garlic powder or onion powder
dash of bragg's
some lemon juice

Mix everything in the food processor till smooth, scraping down sides as necessary. You can add cilantro, dill or other herbs to this.

Today I have also eaten a couple of handfuls of raw sunflower seeds and plan to have salad for lunch, adding raisins, sunflower seeds and raw almonds.
