I had friends over last night and they ate 100% raw. Now, it was only snacks, but they LOVED what I made.
I made Mattye's Garlic Cheese from her Frugal Raw book. I put it in baby bella caps, celery, and cuke rings. I took a long cuke, cut it into thirds and hollowed the pieces out and stuffed them with garlic cheeze, then I sliced them so they looked like green rings with the yellow cheese inside. Then I made Gus's Rawlmond Joy recipe (subbing dates for raisins, since we are out of raisins) and I shaped them into cubes. Next I made these yummy nut/seed balls. I ground sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, hemp seeds, pumpkin seeds all in the FP. I added a little vanilla, honey, and gojis and a few dried apricots and blended them again. I rolled them into balls. They were a huge hit.
I also served onion-tamari pumpkin seeds and raw cider. It was great fun to serve them such wonderful food.
And to top it off my dh AC's burger buns were a HUGE hit, even with my dh who's really been STRUGGLING with going raw. He asked me to make them everyday. :cool:
