Hmm. Do you know where that article is? Unless I'm remembering incorrectly (entirely possible) I remember her saying that children should not be raw b/c it makes people more sensitive and children are already sensitive enough.

Different article, but good none-the-less.
I may be thinking of an interview that Revvell did then. This is definitely completely different info.
Sorry yes the measurements can be a bit confusing to Americans. We are a British-American family so it does not pose a problem for us.Quote:

WONDERFUL THREAD!
Can anyone recommend a good bread recipe for kids? A sweet one and a savory one? Thanks!

Lush colour pics for each recipe. Shazzies Evie's Kitchen is THE BEST raw kid book hands down. Get it! Not sold on Amazon must get it from Shazzie in the UK.

eachpeachpearplum - MAY I COME AND LIVE WITH YOU? WILL YOU BE MY MOMMY TOO? Your food looks so delicious, so yummy! I still eat very simply raw partically because I am too lazy to make dishes that call for processing or dehydrating. Even when I ate cooked I didn't like to make anything that called for a recipe with a lot of ingredients. Just looking at your dishes is making my mouth water. I wish I could get my kids to eat like that. My precious son is the only one who will touch any of the raw prepared dishes I buy from my favorite raw food store where we live. In fact, sometimes I have to hide things from him because I will got to get something that I have purchased and he will have eaten it all!:D
EPPP what exactly does soaking the oat groats do when you're making the Fig bars? I was wondering if it would make a difference in the recipe if I didn't soak them and just ground them into powder with my coffee grinder? Does soaking them make them super smooth in the recipe? Sorry for all the questions just seems like a long time to soak and I was wondering if it some how makes a difference if you don't soak them? The fig bars look so yummy but unfortunately I don't have any figs right now =(
EPPP, thanks so much for the review of Evie's Kitchen.
I'm aiming to get this as stock for my little market business and am dying to order it (just can't yet as budget wont permit me). Good to hear an experienced raw parent gives it the thumbs up.
Also, have you read Baby Greens by Michaela Lynn? If so can you give me your opinion on that one?
I'd like to get that one in stock, but I'm really wanting some kids books for ideas and helpful tips for my own son.
THANKS!

So about the oat groats. The difference is in taste and mouth feel/textures. When you soak them they become so delicious you can eat them as is. My 8yr old daughter loves a bowl of whole 5 day soaked oat groats for breakfast with raisins & cinnamon!
Sorry to digress. So when soaked they become sweet & soft/chewy as if they have been cooked. When they are not soaked they are dull with a floury/grainy in texture like uncooked flour. I know it's a pain but really worth it! I cannot remember how long the soaking time is for the fig newtons but for my daughters oatmeal it's five days!
Is it difficult to find dried figs in your area? If so I am happy to send you a bag :p
Cheers,

Yes I do have Michaela Lynn's book. She is actaully an active member here. I know that somewhere on one of my threads in this section I revieved all my kid book I will have to think where.
I will get back to via a personal note. How old is your son?
EPPP
OK I have had a look and I did mention some of the books in post 103 of this thread. I will still have a look out for others I have. :rolleyes:
I have Shazzie's book (and although I don't have a family yet and we are starting IVF) I think it is a great book and I love the recipes for myself. The sandwich bread recipe is so simple and quick and roastly veg are outstanding. I was lucky enough to get my copy as soon as they were published and to get it signed by Shazzie. The pictures are beautiful and this helps so much.
I love Shazzie's books and her fab 3 disc DVD series. Have you tried Kates new superfoods book, Raw Magic too? It's great to get other opinions! Good luck on the IVF; I have a friend in Bucks who has FIVE beautiful healthy IVF children, I shall send happy thoughts your way! :pQuote:
