i have begun to discover the wonders of quinoa. its rapidly becoming one of my favorite foods of all time.
i made some kickass sprouted quinoa tabbouleh salad which i know someone has written a recipe for in the past. funny thing is, i made it completely of my own invention the second day i went raw, almost 2 years ago.
it involves, roughly:
2c of sprouted quinoa (takes abt 1c dry, and 12 hours to sprout)
2tbsp fresh lemon juice
3tbsp olive oil
salt to taste ...

well its been a few months of on/off raw days
because money is slow so we dont buy groceries as often. fall semester at SMC is ending in a week or so, and im gonna get another job (preferably at a diner so i can play the brassy fat waitress archetype.. "WHADDAYA WANT?!")

but yeah.
today i ate all raw.
i made this delicious chocolate cashew fruit dip with my remaining raw cacao powder (it was a birthday present) which was amaaaaaaaazing
seriously ...

so ive been really off track lately, eating more and more crap thats bad for me
i know im eating for emotional reasons, and i dont know how to control it or stop it. im gonna do 30 days again in november, its going to be really tough i know because of all the holidays n shit, but i need to do it. i cant let myself get back to where i was before. i know if i let go ill spiral into overconsumption of everything all over again. so i have to stick with it.
ive had more control this time ...

oh so i didnt mention
i work at pinkberry now. trendy upscale frozen yogurt chain in venice. its a lot easier than great wraps and i get as much free fruit as i want cause the boss doesnt care. its pretty chill. my first paycheck was smaller than expected. whateva

i keep going on and off raw, for the past week or so i guess. im not worrying about it, ive had some pretty bad days but i think im over it now.

i had a persistent yeast infection, and some bloating ...

i made it for breakfast this morning, it brings back memories

the trick is to use overripe bananas and to cut them before you freeze them so they need less processing. that way they dont melt as much and stay in ice cream mode longer. yes!

1c frozen nanas
1tsp cinammon
few tbsp water (ben says not to add water but i dont think it matters much)

put it all in a foodprocessor ...
