Hi all. I'm making a cracker recipe from the book, and even when I divided the ingredients in half, and skipped a couple of bell peppers, it still is WAY too big for my food processor. It's...

Is there a trick to scooping out the coconut meat without getting the brown part behind it? I failed miserably at using a regular spoon (just feel like I've got no arm strength lately in general)...

Hi everyone! I finally got brave and pulled out my omega juicer that I got off craigslist, and discovered that I did have all the parts to juice with it. Bought some little 'pint' sized trays of...

Thanks! I will call Azure I guess, and check out the other sites, too! Have a beautiful weekend!

I am going to be needing to purchase more and more of my raw foods via the internet, and was wondering where ya'll order your goodies from?

Looking for nuts and seeds (particularly really raw...

Okay, looks like I didn't specify in my first sentence up there that I meant RAW meat and dairy, so sorry for that, and I'm not trying to beat a dead horse, honest, LOL!

I know that this site...

I respect your position Roman, but I'm just as Bible-believing as my hunny, so I won't be attacking the Bible anytime soon. :-)

I still, however, would love to see some more resources on why...

I hear ya, Roman, but that's not going to resonate at all with my civil-construction-working hubby, LOL! Plus, as a conservative Christian, he heavily weighs the Biblical references to different...

Okay, I have watched Supersize Me, although as I recall, it's talking about commercial food sources, not raw, not home-produced.

I just finished watching May I Be Frank, and that was really...

Thank you all! Of to read, watch, and order! :-)

Hi everyone! I'm looking for book recommendations on the subject of why meat and dairy are not good for us. All the things I've referenced so far refer only to studies and statements made based on...

Oh, wow - that could be it. I did first notice it right after the Fettuchini Alfredo recipe, and it got worse after that. Well, it wouldn't be a huge loss if I don't eat pine nuts anymore, they're...

Hmm, thanks for the replies! A few possibilities. I do have the old silver fillings, but I don't know that it's a metallic taste - more like bitter or very sour. Ketosis could be it. I will see...

Hey all. I've been doing raw for a few days now, and I'm noticing that I have a pretty icky aftertaste at the back of my mouth after almost everything I eat. This has been going on for a few days,...

How do you melt the cocoa butter to get it to mix in well? I tried it in the dehydrator once but it was taking forever, LOL!

If we don't soak the nuts that have enzyme inhibitors, does that mean our bodies will need to pull from our supply of enzymes to digest them? Because right now, for me, I'm all about NOT using any...

Hey everyone. I finally got Alissa's book and DVD and am loving it! I am wondering, however, if we should be soaking the nuts for all the recipes in the book? It doesn't specifically say to, and...

Thanks! I'll just rinse it again and go for it!

Hi there. Quick question. I have some raw buckwheat that I got from my food coop a while back. It is brown, so I'm guessing it's unhulled. I have sprouted it (took about 2 days) and am planning...

Uh oh, maybe I've been doing it wrong. For crackers, I've been grinding, THEN soaking my flax seeds. It seems to be working good though, I get really light-textured wafer-like crackers that...

Thanks guys, for the tips. I will try adding the ice and water, and maybe reconsider getting a dedicated wheatgrass juicer. I'll also try watering the grass an hour or so before I juice. And...

I finally got my courage up to try doing wheatgrass in the vitamix, and it didn't go so well. I used an entire little pint-thingy of grass, cut it up into about 1" lengths, and put it in. Started...

Is there anything that CAN'T or SHOULDN'T go in the frig?

I know that bananas will at least have the skin turn brown really fast in there, but I've heard that the banana itself will stay good...

Woo hoo!! Enjoy it!!

Even my basic morning green smoothie makes about a quart-and-a-half, so I wouldn't ever use the smaller container. I doubt you will miss it at all! Enjoy your vita mix!
