Well, I’m back on track. I haven’t posted for a while, as I was dealing with the yeast issue. I’ve taken various pills to kill it, and tried to stay on a yeast-free diet – which is the HARDEST diet I’ve ever done. I consider it impossible if you’re a vegetarian. The yeast is much better and I’ve returned to my “normal” raw diet. I’m slowly adding back the juices and some grains and beans, but in low moderation. A few days ago, I concocted a salad that I just have to share with you. The picture below just doesn’t do it justice. It was wonderful. What’s in it?
RECIPE: Into a mini-food processor, I put a handfull of raw organic cranberries, 4 sections of organic red grapefruit, 1/2 tsp. flaxseed oil, 1/4 tsp. olive oil. Processed until all chopped fine. In a salad bowl, I put sweet butter lettuce (my favorite), 1 green onion chopped, 1/2 avacado in chunks, little sprinkle of gray salt; then I poured the cranberry, grapefruit dressing over it. YUM! This would also be good with baby spinach and a few raw walnuts, pumpkin seeds, or sunflower seeds.
Cranberry-Grapefruit Relish Salad
I’ve been trying to eat one whole avacado each day. Usually eat half at lunch and half at dinner. I LOVE sandwiches, have since I was a child. I get tired of salads, so I put them on a sandwich. I only use sprouted gain bread, preferring the Food for Life brand. Here are a few of my “salad sandwiches”.
- Red pepper, tomato, broccoli sprouts, avacado, seeds sandwich
- Relish Sandwich: Avacado, Broccoli sprouts, Grapefruit-Cranberry Relish, Spinach
- Avacado, naval orange sections, broccoli sprouts, spinach leaves sandwich
- Spinach, broccoli sprouts, avacado, naval orange sections, pumpkin seeds, lecithin granules
- Add lecithin to sandwiches
- Grapefruit sections and organic cranberries in the mini-food processor
I’ve eaten a lot of pizzas lately, too. I use Ezekiel Bread pita for the crust. Most of the time, I use an organic pizza sauce or raw tomatoes whizzed in the food processor with herbs. For these, I used a sugar-free organic ketchup I bought that ended up not tasting anything like ketchup, but it made a good pizza sauce. A little sprinkle of soy parmesan cheese, then pile on the raw veggies. I’ve used red onions, red peppers, chopped broccoli, sliced/chopped tomatoes, chopped spinach leaves, with a sprinkle of a raw milk cheese. I want to make some raw nut milk cheese. I heat the pizza just until the cheese melts. These were WONDERFUL!
