If you’re a lover of savory fruit salads, here’s a good one, sweet with juicy pineapple, chewy with finely chopped kale, and pungent with both garlic and fresh ginger.

Who said salsas have to have tomato in them? Certainly not me… Papaya makes a great substitute for tomato in a salsa! This fresh, all-raw recipe would make for an interesting change of pace the next time you entertain. For my part… I ate it all up just as you see, and it made quite [...]
I seriously appreciate dishes that will keep in the fridge for a few days so there’s always something around to dip into, snack on, or use to whip up a quick meal. Cabbage is a great vegetable to work with in that regard, because it marinates well and holds up to dressing. Like a stew, [...]
My son, who dislikes both cabbage and kale, gave this Kale-Cabbage Slaw salad a thumbs-up. With a creamy, zippy Citrus-Garlic Dressing and the sweetness of red grapes, it’s got a lot of zing and appeal to dress up the stronger flavors of the slaw. This salad is perfect for entertaining and a raw pot luck [...]

You can serve this confidently to your non-raw friends and family without saying a word… it’s definitely an easy-on-the-taste-buds dish that [...]
This is one of my favorite salads, a staple in the summer! I keep sun-cured black olives on hand (which I’ve marinated myself in cold-pressed Greek olive oil and Himalayan Crystal salt) for just this purpose. It is just bursting with the sweetness of the watermelon and fresh raspberries, which is highlighted beautifully by the [...]
