What are you eating right now?

[rawstrength]

Post what you are eating or what you just ate (or will eat).

I am eating a very strange salad indeed, rommaine lettuce and sliced banana! With a dressing of sea salt, honey, hemp oil, and orange juice. I'm enjoying the sweet/salty/slightly bitter combo.

[boocake]

I ate a raw macaroon with sun tea for breakfast around 9am and am surprised how that small little thing is sustaining me for so long!! :)

[betty boop]

I'm sipping a beet leaf, parsley, romaine and spinach, pineapple core and apple smoothie.

[Amberly]

I am breaking a short juice fast with PAPAYA.

[Veronica01]

My gigantic plate of navel oranges and grapefruit lol... i always get funny looks when i walk by after peeling them all.

[contessa20]

Banana-Mango "Water Ice."

AKA: yesterday's leftover smoothie left in the freezer overnight and eaten with a spoon, water ice style. :D

[T-Bird]

Just finished my arugula, tomato and avo salad with drizzled evoo and sea salt ground ove it, with a little side of zuch pasta with marinated mushrooms and marinara.

But I'm still hungry!!! If I had another avo - I'd make another salad, lol!!!

[juliebove]

I just ate carrots.

[eating2live]

big huge salad and lemon water

[monkapotapus]

I just ate some red dragon crackers (recipe on this site) - my mouth is slightly on fire.....:eek: .....but it's all good!

I have to make a batch of rich cheddar dip (also on this site) & will probably have that with some cut up red pepper, mushrooms & cukes ....same thing I had for lunch.....:rolleyes: .....YUM!

[SweetTangerine]

I just made the raw lasagna from Ani's book. I decided to follow the recipe exactly for once (well I added raw parm :p but that was it!) and it was delightful.

[janetc]

Sweet Texas oranges: they look awful, but they are SO sweet and juicy!

[qfmother]

This evening we had company and I made everyone a raw meal! I ate falafels with cucumber sauce, broccoli salad, green salad, corn chips, onion bread, white chocolate strawberry cheesecake, and chocolate mousse! That sounds like a lot, but I wanted them to get a good variety of raw foods to get a taste. I only ate a little bit of each one. They loved it!

[rawbabymama]

A mango & a few bites of raw cinnamon buckwheat cereal (made w/agave). :)

[jacsam]

Just had some cut up strawberries with some agave drizzled over them....delicious. My youngest daughter (teenager and not raw but vegetarian) had some I made her last night and said "yum, these are really good with the agave on them".

[Veganforlife]

A WONDERFUL smoothie consisting of:

Water
Red bell pepper
Tomatoes

[rayofsunshine]

For breakfast I had a smoothie of frozen bananas, frozen blueberries, and coconut water. My oldest son shared it with me. I love when that happens!

[katacykls]

FUnny, I also had a mango sprinkled with chili and lime and some buckwheat cereal I made with hazelnut mylk on top followed by a few macadamia nuts with raw honey.

[ReneeH]

Alissa's Eggplant Pizza...I can't go a month without it!!! It's soooo good!!!

[contessa20]

I just finished my first cherimoya ever. A bit reminiscent of a durian, in my opinion. However, I'm thinking perhaps it was over-ripe. I'll try again another time though since I've heard so many good things about them.

[*RayRay*]

'Pumpkin Pie in a Bowl Revisited' from the book Detox for Women, by natalia rose.....

2 cups fresh carrot juice
1 sweet potato peeled and chopped
1/2 avocado
few drops stevia
1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice

Blend and enjoy!

I just tried this a few days ago and thought it sounded wierd.....but it really really tastes just like pumpkin pie, and is SO DELICIOUS, and totally raw! If you like (or used to like) pumpkin pie, you must try this!!!!! (you can also use dates instead of stevia for the sweetness)

[Cynthia Z]

I just ate amazing Jalapeno Poppers! I ordered cheese from Grezzo and used their cheese and emptied out several jalapenos and stuffed them with the nut cheese and then rolled them in ground pine nuts. They had to dehydrate at 115 for 2 and a half days for the spice to be managable for me--but WOW was it worth the wait! So amazing. Even my non raw co-workers were munching down on them (the very ones that called me crazy for being raw--not so crazy anymore hehehe)

With thanks....Cynthia : )

diamonscape - I am having honey cravings, too! I just ate three spoonfuls of raw honey straight, really satisfies that sweet tooth.

[florafauna]

This is what we are having for dinner tonight -

Stuffed button mushrooms

1 lb mushrooms - stems removed

Filling:
2 handfulls of spinach
1 bunch of basil
2 cloves garlic
4 spring/green onions
2 cups soaked sunflower seeds (2 cups before the soak)
salt and pepper to taste

process filling in the food processor until creamy - might need to add a splash of water to get the right consistency

place filling into a plastic baggie and twist the top - snip off a corner and fill the mushroom caps - sprinkle with black sunflower seeds

the filling is so good - my toddler likes to eat it with a spoon! (ahem - I admit - I did too) :rolleyes: it's okay though - there is plenty of the filling - we'll probably use the extra to smear on tomatoes or cukes

We'll be eating this with a greens salad - and a fresh garlic/herb/lemon dressing

[busy91]

Actually, balsamic vinegar isn't raw is it?

I think it could be....must investigate.

[T-Bird]

The original traditional product, made from a reduction of cooked grape juice and not a vinegar in the usual sense,

From the wiki.

Another added to the contraband list!

[T-Bird]

Apparently - some raw available in the uk!

I'm probably gonna be posting on this one a lot because I'm starting to create my own recipes (well, at least my own variations- something I never ever did when cooked)!

Right now I'm having a really awesome-feeling detox smoothie...

3 stalks celery with leaves (juiced or stuck in blender)
one red apple
one lemon
6 leaves mint
tsp cinnamon

:)

PS. and thanks, T-Bird! What a great website.

I've been eating alot of broccolli this week, never noticed how satiating it can be. I'm a member or an organic farm delivery service and get a home delivery of just-picked organic fruit and veggys every week. It makes raw living much easier since they send you different things every week. It helps with variety. This week they send 3 huge heads of broccolli and i've been having a great time with it. They're all organic and the home deliver to the san francisco and bay area. Check them out on www.alberteve.com (http://www.alberteve.com)

Best of Health
