This salad is a great way to enjoy fresh collard greens — it’s light, refreshing, looks pretty on the table… and is delicate enough so that even those who don’t really care much for salad can enjoy it. Because, let’s face it… not everyone is crazy about their live greens! Make it for your next [...]
I love this recipe. It’s quick. It’s small, so you don’t have to commit to a huge investment of ingredients (and cost). And the ingredients list is quite abbreviated, although you wouldn’t know it from the final taste, which is melt-in-your-mouth yummy. The chocolate is a bit delicate (it’s not the hard chocolate you buy [...]
For such an easy recipe, there’s a heckuva lotta mileage one can get out of this little dish. Made from whipped dried Turkish or Greek figs, it tastes like a rich caramel sauce when paired with apples, and has a wonderfully luscious texture (without the teeth-sticking cloying aspect of caramel, and no added sugar whatsoever). [...]
This very mild-tasting Live Green Smoothie (you would never know it has cabbage in it unless I told you…) has less fruit, more vedge & greens, but none of the ingredients I would normally include in a “Savory Smoothie” or “Blended Salad”, such as a bit of garlic, onion, apple cider vinegar and maybe some [...]
Twofold LGS Mission: 1) Make a great lemonade-tasting Live Green Smoothie, and 2) Make a tasty LGS using fresh Aloe Vera Gel…chalking up yet another great way to enjoy the health benefits of Aloe on a regular basis. This smoothie stands and delivers. Because I juice the lemon through the juicer, it’s got a delicious [...]
p “Got Green?” Can’t tell you how delicious this is. Gotta be the best Live Green Smoothie I can think of for beginners… and yet it’s got a Micro-Algae in it (blue-green algae here, but you can use whatever’s your fave) which you’re likely to find in the fridge of most well-seasoned superfood junkies in [...]
The Dream Team Galangal tastes something like ginger, but with a more pungent flavor and with perhaps more heat. Paired with Goji berry, the King of health in Traditional Chinese Medicine (considered its #1 food/herb), the two are like the Dream Team if your energy is lagging. Mango joins them beautifully together. There’s a lot [...]
A friend of mine who loves Indian food requested that I include more recipes for dips, as she loves to munch on raw-veggies-and-dip, and would love healthier dip choices over some of her current faves. I also love Indian food, and was taught many years ago how to home-cook it by a couple of remarkable [...]
p I picked up a beautiful bunch of organic lemons this week and thought they’d make a great lemonade…which I incorporated into this extremely wakifying Live Green Smoothie recipe! I juiced the lemons whole through the juicer, which allows me to get all those scrumptiously healthful bioflavanoids in the peel and pith, but you can [...]
Normally I put my Raw Cocktail recipes out on Friday nights, but this evening has the feel of a weekend night in my home so I’ve officially moved Friday to Thursday. No three-day weekend for me, but Festive Thursdays are a fun treat! This raw cocktail is made using fresh grapes and freshly squeezed lime [...]
