Oh Lordy, where has this simple recipe been all my life? Warming, comforting, mellow, meaty, juicy, enlivening, nose-runningly spicy without an uncomfortable “burn”… it was just what I needed on this day where the Jersey mountain temps are already, in mid-afternoon, beginning to make their trek down to freezing. Using “macaroni noodles” cut from fresh, [...]

This evening I made a batch of my beloved Savoy Cabbage-Tomato-Almond Butter Chopped Salad and decided to make a kissing cousin with Kale. And between the two of them, I gorged my fill, with nothing but a fork as a side dish. No chips, no Ezekiel bread, just the two salads, a big bowl of [...]

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… [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

These look like ordinary nuts, but I assure they are not. This unique recipe coats your favorite nuts in a sweetly savory combination of raw honey, cacao butter, garlic, cumin, and maca, calling up the taste sensation of authentic mexican mole seasonings, tho’ I left out cacao powder to keep them lighter in flavor. Munch [...]

The mushroom recipe trend continues, as we’re in a cold snap here in the Northeast and mushrooms seem to hold a number of keys to enjoying savory, earthy, grounding, warming cold-weather foods. This one is extremely versatile — I leave it to you to discover how many ways you can use it. But do make [...]

  Pasta Night. Big tradition, definitely in our house. And normally, “raw pasta” dishes just don’t cut it for me. But this one… really satisfies. It has a flavor combination that should please a lot of palates, even if they’ve never been into “raw” very much. And if you’re not quite on the 100% Raw [...]

  There are just soooo may ways I can think of creating a raw vegan gyro, it’s easy to get overwhelmed. And I may have to eventually call this “Raw Vegan Gyro #1″ as I begin to bring out the other, more complex, perhaps “meatier” versions I’ve already envisioned creating. But as I’ve received two [...]
