Try adding 1 to 2 dessert spoons of whole flax to a smoothie - it's best to grind them up in a coffee grinder first or if you havw a Vitamix you can grind them in there.

You need the Essential...

mmm bananas :cool:

I did try dehydrating them but maybe I didn't do it for long enough or something - they didn't turn out that great. Do you slice them quite thinly Jacsam or quite thickly?

I am currently enjoying some slices of apples which I dehydrated (in my new excalibur - wahey:) ) last night and they are delish - if I do so say myself :D

Somtimes it's the simple things that...

I got this recipe of Ani Phyo's website (so I don't think she'd mind me sharing since its in the public domain already :) )

Hey Morn - thanks for posting this recipe :) I can't wait to try it out. I need to find a cheddar cheese substitute big time.

Hey Shazshaw! Greetings from sunny (well sometimes...) Glasgow :D :D :D

Best of luck as you embark on your raw adventure - make sure you blog and post how you are getting on.

Thanks so much everyone for the warm welcome back! :)

I've only just checked back and seen all the other replies

rawgreenyogini - yeh that's spooky hey, I started a day after you! I think we...

No the recipe doesn't say you need to soak them



I have tried her carrot soup and it is delicious. I have also tried the pea soup. I made it with cashew milk instead of almond milk, as I...

Hey - you should get the book anyway though, it is fantastic. Loads of motivational stories and tips in addition to the fantastic recipes :)

Good to know you could use cashews too. Almonds do give a kind of grainy texture but to be honest I really liked that, it gave a great consistency.

I don't think the olive oil is in the recipe in...

It's so great! And really easy to make too - no soaking or dehydrating required.

For some reason I thought I might find it a bit bland / boring, but I wanted to try out a soup recipe so I had an...

Yay - the Banana Cream Pie gang! Try it frozen for sure - it's scrumptious. But it is kind of hard to break a bit off with your spoon. I just left some on my plate to defrost slightly before digging...

Oh my goodness - I just made Alissa's Broccoli Soup recipe (my first raw soup!) and it is DELICIOUS :eek:

This is going to be a staple of mine now - creamy, thick and satisfying -oh and did I...

Thanks dgoddess - yeh maybe my sweet tooth will abate a bit! :D



Yeh it did make a massive amount, I've only drunk about a third of it so far, as it should last me till tomorrow I reckon. That...

Ha ha thanks Revell - guess I kind of answered my own question there :D

Yeh I will check out the threads on diabetes though

Is it 'bad' to use loads of fruit in these? I don't mean bad terrible, I mean bad too much fruit sugar! ;)

For example this morning I pretty much filled my Vitamix up with kale and romaine...

Carrots, celery and tomato dipped in eggless egg spread and guacamole - YUM! :D

Thanks guys for all your tips :) - I think I just need to get into a regular habit of getting some things prepared in the morning before I leave for work

While eating SAD I just grab a sandwich...

:D Come on the Banana Cream Pie crew! :D

Thanks SuBu!

Great ideas - I think keeping it simple sounds like the key. I want to regularly make a green smoothie for breakfast anyway so I could always just make extra at the same time for...

Yeh you should definitely give it a go - it's delish!

Just don't make the filling too liquidy like me - doh

Hi all

I'm just starting back on raw after a long break and am hoping you guys can give me some ideas for easy and portable raw lunches?

I've just made up a batch of guacamole and eggless egg...

Ahhhhhhh! Oops I thought it said 1 and a 1/2 cups! :rolleyes:

I'm such an idiot - thanks garden granny, that would explain things! :)

Still, my frozen banana pie is scrumptious, so at least I...

The recipe does call for 1 1/2 cups of apple juice and only 1/2 cup of coconut to thicken (the other half cup to sit on top of the pudding) - so I don't see how it can be thick enough really?

Yeh...

I just used dried shredded coconut - is that right?

Maybe I just used the wrong amounts or something
