Simple recipes

[VeryBerry]

Does anyone own Fred P. book "Instant raw sensations" ? It is a collection of really easy raw recipes with common ingredients. This book pretty much descibes my style of "uncooking". Seeing a long list of ingredient just makes me really confused. And it usually means that the foods will be miscombined.

So I would like to share some of my own simple yammy recipes.
Please share yours.

Semami Calcuim Rich Smoothy.
2 table spoons of semami seed
Banana
Pear
Mix in the Vitamix with some water.

Green Monster Smoothy
Spinach
Banana
Pear
Mix in a Blender or a Vitamix with some water.

The Bunny Rabbit Salad.
Carrot
2 Apples
Banana (optional)
Nuts (Walnuts work best)
Dates
Mix carrots, apples are bananas in a food procesor. Add nuts & dates.

Red pepper soup.
Red peppers (2 per person)
Avocado
Cucumbers
Mix red peppers in the Vitamix, (chop fist, then blend, this way you can blend them without water)
Add small slices of cucumber and avocado for garnish.
This one is surpiringly delicious, even if you don't generally like peppers.

Spinach soup.
Spinach
Tomatoe
Avocado.
Cucumber (optional)
Mix in a blender or a Vitamix.
I usually blend some of the veggie, and then chop some and add them to the mix, this makes the soup more chucky and filling.
