I got this from a board I belong to - sounds really great. The comments were this could be used to get you raw and get you to stay raw.

It's Really Soup!
=================
By Abeba Wright and Anna Fisk
Serves 8 to 10 (4-5 if the main course) Special Equipment Large blender
(approximately 2 quarts) or food processor*

* Divide the ingredients if you don't have one this large


INGREDIENTS
-=-=-=-=-=-
10 or 11 fresh Roma tomatoes, chopped (look like little pears)
1/2 red or yellow onion, peeled and chopped
4 cloves garlic, peeled
Fresh basil to taste (I used about 6 leaves)
Fresh dill to taste (I used about 4 stalks)
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Celtic salt to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons flax seed oil (optional to get your Omega 3s)
1/4 cup raisins
1 red bell pepper
1/4 jalepeno pepper (optional; I missed the 1/4 part and accidentally put
in one whole pepper! Spicy but if you can tolerate it, it's wonderful.)
1 cup sun-dried tomatoes, finely chopped (divided into two piles)
1 avocado, cubed
1 ear of corn, cut from the cob
1/2 sweet yellow pepper
Finely chopped parsley, for garnish (I used one sprig per bowl)


DIRECTIONS
-=-=-=-=-=-
In a 2-quart blender or food processor*, combine 6 of the tomatoes with
the onion, garlic, basil, dill, lemon juice, sea salt, olive oil, raisins,
red bell pepper, jalepeno (if using), and 1/2 cup water. Blend well.

* Divide the ingredients if you don't have one this large

Add 1/2 cup of the sun-dried tomatoes, a little at a time. Blend well.

In a large bowl, combine the avocado, remaining fresh and dried tomatoes,
corn, and the sweet yellow pepper. Pour the blended mixture over the
chopped vegetables and stir well. Garnish with parsley.
