Had TWO huge GSs yesterday, and one today with kale (yum), a humongous bush of it. :) Had some dehydrated sunflower "burgers" in the fridge, so I ate a bunch of those with a large salad with...

Got a running start! :) Had GS and salad today, sprouted crackers with salsa and avocado, and a chai smoothie tonight (bananas, dates, water, cashews, cinnamon, and cardamom.) YUM! Soaking...

I'm getting ready! I've got sprouted grain crackers in the dehydrator, the fridge is full of greens, fruit, and veggies! I've got some alfa-alfa sprouting, and I made some Rejuvelac, though I'm not...

I'm in! I've been raw on and off since 2006 and when I stay on the raw, I feel great! When I fall off, I'm bored with the same (raw) flavors, and I need to learn a lot more recipes. I'm not a...

Alissa's "crab cakes" are delish.
Raw slaw (shredded carrots, red cabbage, garlic, celery, salt, pepper, and sesame oil mixed.)

"Brittle"

1/2 cup coconut oil
one really ripe banana sliced
handful of cashew pieces or other nuts
1 teaspoon carob or cocoa powder (or more to taste.)
squirt of agave nectar

Mix everything...

Vito,

Sometimes you can substitute with sunflower seeds or pumpkin seeds, depending on the recipe. You have to try to see what works for you.
The best recipes often turn out to be your...

I tried to SPROUT chia seeds last night, and this morning I had the gel. I thought they would sprout like alfa-alfa. They are more like flax. Are the seeds hard and gritty in the smoothie? ...

When the buckwheat berries are sprouted place them in the food processor with some almond milk or a fruit of choice and process until entirely smooth. There might be a few berries left, but the...

Buying organic we also support the Earth. She's staggering under the burden of all the pollution of pesticides, herbicides, etecetera that is KILLING the soil. Organics taste sooo much better in my...

Aleesha, thanks for posting that! I took Pearls brand probiotics for a while, and they seemed to work pretty well actually. I haven't taken anything for a while, so I forgot about those.

I've been taking probiotics too, but not noticing any difference. Difficulty with digestion can stem from lack of HCL in the stomach. That can be tested. There are HCL capsules that you can add to...

Before I went raw my cats loved canned green peas, and the water they came in. She also eats goji berries and nori sheet. She could eat a whole sheet if I'd let her...

Maria :)

On my 50th I would do entirely what I WANT TO DO. That would include doing something I love outside of the work environment! Maybe a day at the spa??

Just thinking...

Maria

The best magnesium supplement I've found is Dr. Gillham's CALM. It's a powder that you dissolve in warm water. I add it to my smoothie every morning.

Maria (sleeping like a baby due to the...

I don't have it, but I would probably just eat it out of the jar... ;)

Maria

Hmmm, maybe it is only a marketing ploy. Obviously I haven't done any research on these. They have replaced the regular FL avocados here. I never minded the "regular" kind of FL avos. They are an...

Has anyone tried the Slimcado that's now available at the grocery store? I don't like that they've tampered with the avocado. It's the large Florida kind, and you can't find the regular ones any...

My fave wrap is nori sheets. They hold the wraps well together. My cat loves nori. I moisten it and tear pieces off the wraps for her. :)

One thing that Victoria Boutenko stresses in her books on raw is that we don't take up the nutrients unless the cellulose in the veg is broken down to very fine particles. That's why it's so...

Sounds delish! I LOVE coconut oil, and I never liked anything coconut before.

Maria

Best to refrigerate it.

Maria

What a transformation! You look WONDERFUL!! Thanks for posting.

Maria

Victor,

please see a doctor for a diagnosis! My mom had severe attacks of dizziness and vomiting for years and she found out she has Meniere's Disease, inner ear/ balance problem. I'm not...

What a yummy sounding dish!! Could maybe substitute with arame seaweed??
