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 [...]

This is wonderful soup for when you want something comforting, soothing, grounding, and warming… but which will enliven and nourish you rather than put you to sleep and slow you down. And although the recipe is “raw vegan”, it’s not just for raw food purists (which I am not)… there are many health-conscious raw food enthusiasts who do include lovingly raised [...]

If you crave savory, cheesy, meaty, mellow, comforting foods and have [...]

Raw food enthusiasts are always asking how to “stay raw” or keep up their raw food intake during the winter months, when everyone craves warmth. I’m one who thinks there’s a logic to desiring warm foods in cold seasons or locales, and therefore think that Warm Live Soups are just bloody brilliant. No need to [...]

Like many raw food enthusiasts, I find that raw, savory comfort food can be a challenge to make on-the-spot, without the use of a dehydrator or nuts. I’ve got nothing against dehydrators and nuts, but my preference is to make savory, non-dehydrated food made fresh with high-water-content foods… meals I can make and eat right away. [...]

This Holiday Stuffing recipe has all the classic hallmarks of classic breaded Thanksgiving stuffing, flavored with apples, celery, onion, a bit of cranberry, and seasoned with thyme. And it’s warm, as well… or at the very least, you can easily take the chill off the fresh ingredients. The difference here is, it’s juicy, there is [...]
