Such a pretty salad… like confetti! And another good template recipe to know because there are so many ways you can play with it. The heart of this one is fresh cucumbers (I generally use the long, thin “British” cukes) with a combination of sweet red, orange, and or yellow peppers. The dressing is made [...]
Super-quick, super-flavorful, and made with Utterly Pedestrian ingredients so easy to keep on hand! Enjoy without the meatballs — super-delish on its own, over “noodles” or “spaghetti” made from fresh, raw baby zucchini — or make a side of meatballs for a heartier repast! And even if you make the whole Spaghetti & Meatball affair… [...]
I just love fresh, jumbo Medjool dates. Not when ground up and mixed into nut balls or energy bars… blech. In fact, I loathe those sorts of things, where the almost-juicy quality of the dates is destroyed by over-processing. No, dates are best enjoyed whole, where their lovely succulence can be enjoyed full-on. I’ve said [...]
When you can make something quick and easy like this, forget oatmeal and any of the other hot cereals out there. This is the kind of dish that kids will go crazy over… and I mean crazy-crazy. It tastes like warm vanilla cake batter. Forget kids… how many adults do you know who still love [...]
Want something warm, savory, starchy and comforting to go with your amazing “Mushroom Tapenade” dinner tonight? You can make this gently-warmed-but-still-raw “polenta” using corn freshly cut from the cob! Probably takes no more than 5 minutes to make, including cutting the corn off, so — as nearly all of the recipes on this site are [...]
I must be doing something right in the kitchen, because here’s another recipe I just wasn’t fast enough to grab my portion! Sure, as the chef de cuisine, I get my taste, but so often everything disappears before I can settle down for a good munch! In this case, my son scurried away with two [...]
If the last recipe I posted, an amazingly juicy & satisfying ”meat substitute” out of Mushrooms, is the “Meat” in your living-foods equation, this dish is the “potatoes”… a comforting, filling, satisfying starch dish that will leave you feeling grounded and full. I love fresh, just-picked corn off the cob in recipes because it has so [...]
This is a potential life-changing, culture-changing recipe, one I wish I knew how to make back in April 2005 when I first embarked on a journey of discovery with raw and living foods. You could be a meat-eater and eat this instead of meat, and be satisfied. That is not only my own sentiment, but [...]
So refreshing… like Essence of Watermelon, but with a creaminess that must come, almost inexplicably, from the mango! Add a wee bit of Citron vodka and, well… let the festivity start. Gorgeous in a lovely glass. So fresh. Eezy-peezy. I mean… what more could you ask for? There’s enough here for two blenderfulfuls, and the [...]
Oh for a bit of jalapeño and a handful of cilantro! They would make this salad just over-the-top yummy, yet my fridge was bare of these two staples. Even so… I mangia-ed this entire recipe for my dinner and it was wonderfully satisfying! Crunchy, juicy, sweet, with some of the comforting squoosh from the bananas [...]
