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 [...]
What a great salad. Seriously folks, if you haven’t tried any savory fruit salads, give this one a try! My 20-yr-old son who does not like tomatoes loved it. And the dressing… it’s amazing what you can do with fresh corn and zucchini! Here we have the sweetness of crunchy watermelon mixed with the [...]
I could eat this every day, for any meal. In fact, if you would kindly rummage a plate up for me now, I’d be quite pleased, thank you. It’s lusciously juicy, creamy, crunchy, sweet… with a bit of good salt to perk things up all the more. And completely pedestrian. No exotic superfoods here or [...]
The theme of pairing watermelon with tomato continues. I’m a big one for having multiple options for similar ingredients, because there’s a lot to be said for getting into a groove of having a consistent family of ingredients in the house at any given time. You just gotta know what to do with them so [...]
This is a non-fat recipe with no added sugar, and a non-savory (no onions, no garlic, no olive oil) way to enjoy the health benefit of your jucy summer tomato harvest! If you’re trying to lose weight, if you’re watching your sugar, if you follow a Weight Watchers program, or looking to increase your tomato [...]
Okay, so clearly this isn’t true “pesto”, and as it has neither onions nor garlic, it’s not really a “salsa” either. But you get the gist… call it what you like, just call it good. And you can always add some red onions or a bit of fresh garlic to this recipe, or sprinkle some [...]
This makes for a very pretty first course, buffet side dish, or a main dish salad for one. It’s super-easy and made from ingredients so easy to pick up at your local grocery store… or perhaps you even have all the items growing in your own garden! Tomatoes, zucchini, tomatillo, fresh basil… paired with garlic, [...]
