What's your favourite raw foods and how did you discover it?

[Raw Jewelrylady]

My latest kick has been Tahini roll-ups.

I take any chopped veggies -my fav combo is cauliflower, avo, little onion, lime juice, a little sea salt & roll into a cabbage or romaine roll spread with tahini ! YUM! :D

I found this as a combo of a recipe that needed an extra touch so I added the tahini.

I also like flax crackers spread with tahini & then thinly peeled cukes-again YUM!

My other fav kick is fruit-esp...persimmons, mangos, papaya & plain banana smoothies.

I make an awesome Mango salad with diced mango on shredded romaine with lime juice, little onion & tomatoe.

Most of these have been cravings so I listen & eat accordingly.

Simpler eating has been working for me lately.

bananas, may be boring, but I loooove them. :D

[trinity082482]

Fav? Hmm.. I love the fruit and nut biscotti's I make. But Im pretty sure they arent that healthy for me. But they are raw. :rolleyes:

[trinity082482]

bananas, may be boring, but I loooove them. :D


Oooo yep yep! Me too. Instead of my usual pancakes or toast, sausage, eggs and home fries.. I grab a banana. Way healthier! :D

Avocados - straight or combined with other ingrediants.

Durian - when I took a two day train trip, I blended durian and froze it in containers. It was great to take one out, let it thaw, and sip on it while sitting in the observation car.

And apples, especially Ginger Golds.

Oh, and green smoothies!!!

[Morn]

I love pineapple!!! (and many others but this one came to mind first)

[juliebove]

I love really good, really crisp celery and also Romaine or leaf lettuce. Also love home grown tomatoes. And onions of all kinds. I remember reading a story written by someone about her grandma and how she cooked in the old days. Every recipe started out, "Take an onion..." Well, that's me. I have onions at pretty much every lunch and dinner and sometimes breakfast too. I like cranberries, either dried or fresh in small amounts. I like lemon and lime juice. And most all kinds of nuts and seeds.

For recipes and "made up" kinds of foods, I like onion bread, RP's brownies and a variation with coconut. I like the lemon chews and also some pumpkin seed bars from GoRaw.

During the summer I like strawberries straight from the vine. During winter I like sprouts. I don't seem to want sprouts in the summer, perhaps because my garden has so many other foods in it.

fruit! my favorite apple is ginger gold too!

right now: persimmons and papaya. MMMMMMMM! :D

[Missrawdiva]

Raw Cocao nibs! I can grind them up, but them in my smoothies, then eat them in RP's brownies..

[rawfigure]

Fuji apples. I read in a book they were good in Green Drinks due to the sweetness. Now I prefer to eat them whole and use the less sweet green apples in my Green Drinks.

[vgloveforlife]

Definitly avocadoes!

[cassidy]

ooo...
Fugi apples are my favorite too.
I love making fresh apple juice out of cold apples.
nut butter/banana smoothies are one of my favorties as well

[meinleben]

my favorite changes all the time....

today it is dates with cucumber....

[Ariannah]

Fresh fruit!! Pineapples, blueberries, watermelon, bananas, oranges, and good old apples.

Just today I had a new fruit that I got at the organic market: A Charentais melon. A small melon, similar to a cantaloupe. Tasted very sweet and juicy and it was my first time eating one (or hearing of one)

[DavidZaneMason]

These days? Pineapple or Papaya. The two great tastes that'll clean you out like industrial pipe cleaner! LOL.

[VeryBerry]

Lately green leaf lettuce.

Also I absolutely love avocados, tomatoes, cherrys, bananas, mangos, pears, apples, walnuts, red peppers. Who am I kidding I love it all!

[glcoop60]

I am really into fruit. A treat for me on weekends is to slice a bannana, top with home amde cashew butter and a rasin or two. Sure beats what I used to eat for breakfast. :D

[Rawzula]

Bananas! I like them better than any other fruit. Not too much into avocadoes:eek:!

[being]

Any berries, pineapples and mangoes, cilantro, celery and dandelions.

They make me smile just thinking about them :D

[RowanC]

Smoothies
Bananas
TOMATOES!
Beet/Pear salad or AppleTurnip salad.. I know, I just LOVE that stuff!

I wish I liked Tahini, but it's so bland to me

[Maria]

Green smoothies!
Gala apples
cucumbers

[Naiad]

Delicious kale salads with macadamia nut oil + lemon juice and sea salt. It's like eating a bag of addictive potato chips.

Chocolate and vanilla mint chip icecream from One Lucky Duck. And their chocolate pudding... omg.

Raw pizza from Quintessence.

Champagne mangoes... the small, yellow, kidney shaped kind that taste incredible. Most of the ones I find in NYC are very hard and taste like turpentine =/

Dehydrated golden jalapeno/flax chips with guacamole and salsa. Mmmmmm....

Raw almond milk smoothie with banana and a dash of cinnamon. This is my reward for a wicked gym workout :)

Grapes and cantelope as of lately. Also vanilla shakes with just a hint of cacao...reminds me of a Wendy's Frosty!
