Welcome! Solar dryer would be cool. Being in a warm country you must have easy access to a lot of yummy, tropical fruits?

Thanks for the recommendations! xox

Welcome fellow Canadian :) I am an east coaster myself!

Hello!

I have been raw for 2.5 years and I have only met very few raw foodists, since I live in a rural island in Canada :) I too wanted to shout to the rooftops but found that most people weren't...

My fav. raw nutritional yeast recipe (besides kale chips flavoured with it):

Raw mac and cheese:

2 cups cashews
3/4 cup water
1 tablespoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon sea salt (or slightly less)...

Here's a good one for ya!

1 cup of roughly chopped cauliflower
1/4 cup cashews
1/2 garlic clove
3/4 cup water
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon celtic sea salt
1/2 cup finely chopped cauliflower (reserve -...

Hi! You sound like me.

Almost five years ago my husband and I were living in a big city in Canada. But we wanted to do the country thing and simplify our lives so we sold everything we owned and...

Welcome Ann Marie - from one double-name to another :)

You sound similar to how was when I first started - pescatarian for ten years. But now I've been raw for about 2.5 years with no looking...

I don't generally hear of fruit/veg mixture being discouraged. Fruit/nut combo is discouraged though.

As for green shake recipes, try doing a search here for "green smoothie" - you'll find oodles...

You can do it, my friend.

"It's going to take everything I am to be all that I can be."

I have a weird situation. I live on Prince Edward Island in Canada and apparently they gather irish moss here to export. But I still can't find it anywhere to buy from locally! It's bizarre. I keep...

If you have a phone with a camera try to snap a photo of everything you eat before eating it. You don't have to post these anywhere, just the act of taking the photo will help you stay on track.

Alfredo sauce (serve over zucchini "noodles"):

• 2 cups unsoaked cashews
• 1/2 cup pine nuts (or just use more cashews if you don’t have pine nuts)
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 3 cloves garlic...

Give it a shot anyway. You might be surprised!

This sounds good. I often add pecans to my salads as well. I never add them whole though, I grind them up in a mortar and pestle and then sprinkle them and mix them into the salad. It gives the salad...

I completely agree with Revvell. Just listen to your body, and, as long as it's raw, you'll do fine.

I certainly eat 1 avocado per day if I feel like it. Quite frequently I will use an entire avo...

Haha, this is a weird concept to me, as well. I also add garlic to everything!! I too love to make basic soups with a bit of garlic, like this one:

Tomato soup
1 cup of roughly chopped tomatoes...

Mystic Tree -- The cheese flavor is more like the flavor of Kraft macaroni and cheese sauce. It's kind of like a creamy cheddar flavor.

I think most raw vegans would eat both. They are just used for different purposes in different recipes (provided that you're actually making your own almond milk--not using store-bought of course).

Do not use dry active yeast. That's totally different.

You want "nutritional yeast flakes." Try your HFS bulk area.

I didn't read everyone else's answers but here are mine:

What do you make in your Vita-Mix that a regular blender couldn't do as well? Sigh... About a gajillion things!! Mostly, it just blends...

Sorry, I've never used it myself

I really need to find me some lucuma too! It's called for in so many recipes. I can't source it locally (rural Canada) but I need to bite the bullet and order online.

Wow, thank you so much for sharing your story with us. It sounds as though you are very aware re: your triggers and what has contributed to you being where you are today. Awareness is the first step...
