I added some other seasonings to mine and they're great! (I used onion powder, garlic powder and pasta seasoning)

Here's one I like:

Wild Rice Salad

1 1/2 cups wild rice (soaked 3-5 days)
1 red bell pepper, finely chopped
1 cup corn
2 carrots, shredded
3 stalks celery, finely chopped
1/2 red onion,...

Ok, I'm going to chime in here. I've read your posts and can't believe some of you can make it through the day with the amount you eat (see my previous posting in "Can't eat enough!!!") Here's what...

I bumped this discussion up because it relates to what I'm going through right now. I went 100% raw after a serious illness and I didn't find it hard. But recently, I was under tremendous stress...

I've historically had a low libido and this has been one of my concerns in seeking better health. I've been raw now for a year (although the last 2 months have been rough and I've strayed a bit). I...

Shivananda, as usual you are the wise sage who can provide all our answers! I was wondering what was up with the bananas, too! Thanks!

I don't know if this would make a difference, but where did you get it from?

I have been using Maca for about 9 months and honestly don't taste it in my smoothies (I use about 1 tablespoon of...

I have dry skin problems and when they emerge (ie: when I'm detoxing), I take 1 tablespoon of organic unprocessed coconut oil per day by mouth and also spread it on the dry areas. Even water will...

I understand if they do live cell analysis, they can see the candida in your blood....but your "regular" doctor probably doesn't do/know about that kind of test. A regular physical doesn't show it,...

Don't despair!!!! I have had sinus problems all my adult life (including two surgeries to open them up) and have been 100% raw almost a year. My sinuses are still clogged, but some days feel pretty...

I agree!!! Just because it might take 50 months doesn't mean you won't feel great....it just means you'll feel better and better!

Raw Priestess, David Wolfe mentioned the month to year equation in his book, but it might have been repeated.....I've noticed they do tend to repeat each other.

I've been PH testing for a few...

Thanks, Arky, for your kind words. Jenna rose, I love your pictures!

I have a card prepared, too. It's a combination of a few I've seen, including one I found through a search of this site.

My lifestyle involves eating out occasionally because we're invited to...

My father-in-law is currently in my care dying of cancer. I have been trying to get him to give raw foods a go for a year. He was living with one of his daughters, who fed him Mcdonalds, Taco Bell...

I third that opinion. Dr. Cousens does talk about it in his book. Just try to incorporate more acid foods into your diet, like nuts. It would be a good idea to get a hold of a chart that lists...

Coming in late in the game here, but I also feed a raw diet to my dog, a 50 lb Aussie. As Helen said, the trick is to look for the deals. We only do chicken, as it's cheapest and my dog had...

You guys are hilarious!!! :D :p :D :p

I use a 14 year old Cuisinart which is a workhorse and, I understand, assembled totally different (and better) than the current ones.

See Shivananda's comments in the "Cheeep appliances" thread...

I'm taking a big trip in June and thought it would be good to travel with (trying to keep the food bill down). Would it be a good investment for that purpose, or is something else better? I just...

This really made me laugh! Can't we all relate to our childhood when a friend hurt our feelings and we just pick up and go home! Sometimes this might be the best short-term solution.

Thanks,...

Shivananda, you are tireless! (And a good humor, too!)

I agree with everyone above....Alissa's book is the BEST to start with. All the others I believe assume prior knowledge that a newbie doesn't have. Alissa will give you the experience that allows...

You should call the store you intend to go to and ask about availability of the items you're interested in. I know in my store, the manager places orders for the items that move in THAT store. ...

When I was vegan, I was using a kind....I think it was by a company called "Follow your Heart". It is refrigerated and most types contain no dairy or egg. I especially liked one that was lemon...
