This is another “revelation recipe”, the sort of thing one never imagines would be so good, and yet works so very well!

This is also one more feather in my cap as far as nailing down another great raw recipe exquisitely highlighting vanilla… a personal quest of mine, since I love vanilla so much, but milk and cooked grain (two ingredients normally providing the blank backdrop that vanilla requires to shine) are excluded from the raw realm.

Avocado and raw zucchini have so far provided the most impressive raw food backdrops for vanilla, and this is a great example of the two of them working together to provide both creaminess and substance in a dish with vanilla.

This “hot cereal” takes just a few minutes to make, doesn’t dirty up your blender (you whip it up quickly by hand), and is true comfort food, raw or otherwise. I finished my bowl and immediately wanted another… it went down much too quickly! When’s the last time you said that about a bowl of zucchini?

:D

This dish is so gentle, comforting, and bland-in-a-good-way it will likely have some universal appeal in your home. When I think that kids could be waking up to this in the mornings instead of sugary cold cereals or packaged oatmeal, it really inspires me to get the word out. Try this and pass the recipe on to your family!

Sounds wonderful but are you sure it is raw?

I will try it, but warm it in my dehydrator I think. :)

Or maybe try it cold.

Just in case……

Yes, it’s most definitely raw if you only heat it, gently, for a minute, even two, over very low heat. You can just “take the chill off” if you’d like, or you can warm it up more, but so it’s still comfortable to touch. What is just warm to your fingers will feel much warmer to your lips…

A living food will start the denaturing process the moment you but into it, so if you want truly undenatured food, only eat it whole. But it’s a continuum, and a brief & gentle warming to below body temperature isn’t going to denature it much at all. :D

Make sure you check out the new hot cereal/warm pudding recipes I just posted. They are just so yummy…
