raw challenge – day 25 – d.i.y. sprouting + kitchen gadgets
Before and after: broccoli, red clover, radish and salad sprouts.
As week 4 of my ‘100 Day Raw Food Challenge‘ quickly approaches, my menu repertoire is finally beginning to solidify. I was clear from the onset that keeping proteins and carbs in my diet was going to be an absolute essential. While nuts, seeds and oils [...]
fresh mint and strawberry ’sangria’
Oh yeah! Keep cool this summer with a tasty herbal brew.
Nothing fancy to this, really. It’s just a nice way to keep hydrated in style when the mercury starts to rise. Simply take a whack of fresh mint, place it in a large juice container and top it up with about one and a half [...]

The view under glass at ‘Market Meats’.

raw challenge – day 9 – scrumptious cream of wheat
Raw Cream of Wheat with Date & Prune Puree.
Didn’t think it was possible, did you? How could a bowl of raw wheat actually be ’scrumptious’? I must admit that, when I took my first shot at this dish, my hopes were not particularly high. That’ll learn me. This recipe is creamy, so yummy, dead easy [...]
first from my garden
I’ve been waiting for this moment since mid February…. the experience of eating food grown with my own two hands. Ironically, the seedlings started last winter were not the first to yield sustenance. It was the radishes and salad greens planted outdoors, straight from seed some 5 weeks ago, that grew most rapidly. So [...]
raw challenge – day 3 – kreamy avocado soup
The first 3 days of my raw food challenge have proven to be both demanding and incredibly rewarding. I’ve certainly spent a great deal of time in the kitchen….. recipe testing, inventing, note taking, photographing and tasting. This avocado soup from Ani Phyo was part of tonight’s dinner. Tasty as it was, I found it [...]
