Another recipe that reflects the exquisite simplicity when following nature’s natural measuring system: “one tomato, one avocado, one banana, on green onion…” Banana Guacamole? Is anyone else doing this? Surely it must have been done before, I just never heard of it. Wish I had heard of it sooner. It’s delicious. And with the amount [...]
A tomato, a banana, a green onion… who knew these guys made such a great team? But it’s not so surprising, really… Bananas have been used in all sorts of savory dishes around the world, and tomatoes are technically a fruit. The combo makes me think of fried sweet-banana cuban “maduros” with fresh salsa. [...]
When I served this, the kids at the table loved it… “Looks like blood!” Well, that’s not exactly how I’d put it, but.. yes… it sure is a striking dish. Substitute several mangoes instead of the cantaloupe and you’ll have another gorgeously simple dessert or breakfast option. It’s absolutely company-perfect, and you could probably whip [...]
Some of my favorite moments are when I try something completely new and find it to be so tasty and satisfying that I wish I’d been eating since I was a kid. This is one of those recipes. Don’t let the monochromatic appearance fool you… this is wonderful. Traditional Greek-style seasonings — garlic, fresh mint, [...]
Absolutely delicious and as savory and juicy as a buffalo burger… but entirely raw, living, and vegan. Not only that, it’s made from Utterly Pedestrian ingredients, which is currently becoming a theme for the Live Green Smoothie Diet site. The more I “jack up the raw”, the more I crave non-sweet, non-chilled, very-savory dishes. And [...]
I love rose water almost as much as I love great vanilla. Almost. And if you’re like me, and you appreciate quick & filling meals that also taste great, you’ll love this combination. Which, by the way, you can also make with either vanilla or orange blossom water instead of the rose water! *swooning on [...]
Talk about a quick and uncomplicated dinner…! Alas, I’m munching it for lunch, as is my son, and my mother… so, there’s nothing left of it for dinner! This is a dish to eat with a fork, at room temperature. Don’t chill it. Let the air, even the sun, warm it a bit, and enjoy [...]
One of my absolute favorite raw recipes is my Savoy Cabbage/Tomato/Almond Butter Salsa/Chopped Salad. It’s a mouthful, I know, and suffers from an identify crisis when it comes to its name because it can be Just So Many Things! A salsa to enjoy with raw chips or organic tortilla chips… a great filling for a [...]
Who knew that raw broccoli could be so tender? And when paired with this slight sweet Creamy “Ranch” dressing, it’s sweet and almost juicy. And you can make the dressing by itself and use as a dip or sandwich spread. My 20-yr-old enjoyed nibbling this right along with me. So much for raw green vedge [...]
Bet you never had watermelon and broccoli together before! After this recipe, it might become a fave for ya. This recipe is sweet, crunchy, filling, and substantial. A great one for anyone watching their weight, that’s for sure. You’ll be so surprised how well watermelon and broccoli go together when treated this way! Note: You [...]
