Homemade Raw Vegan Ice Cream Bars! Yes, another ice cream recipe! Funny that I am posting this today, because I started a juice fast this morning! I feel like I really need it because (believe it or not) I have been eating a lot of heavy vegan food lately…Good thing that ice cream does not go bad, coz these little guys will have to wait for me a while in my freezer Anyway, back to the ice cream! I got these cool molds to make ice cream bars at home and I wanted to make a raw vegan version of the classic ice cream I used to eat as a child. My favorite was the white chocolate covered chocolate ice cream! For the chocolate ice cream I used my basic chocolate avocado pudding as a base. Chocolate Pudding Ice cream Base -4 ripe avocados/ 4 ώριμα αβοκάντο -1 cup raw cacao powder/ 1 κούπα ωμή σκόνη κακάο -1 cup agave nectar/ 1 κούπα σιρόπι αγαύης -1/2 cup water/ 1/2 κούπα νερό Blend everything in a high-speed blender until completely smooth and transfer in ice cream molds. This recipe makes about 10 small ice cream bars. Enjoy!
raw lasagna rolls | The Naked Avocado This past weekend, I did my first 3-day juice cleanse with a good friend of mine – the kind where you buy the juices from a company and they arrive via FedEx at your door the day before you start the cleanse. I chose to go with a local Dallas company call Roots Pressed Juices for the cleanse, and they sent me 6 fresh juices to drink each day. The idea behind a juice cleanse is that you fill your body with fresh juices that are pressed in a way that preserves the most nutrients – vitamins, minerals, and other phytonutrients and enzymes. By just drinking the juice, you omit almost all of the fiber, so your body doesn’t have to digest the food. I have heard stories of the detox symptoms people experience while on a juice cleanse, and I have to say that I didn’t experience any uncomfortable symptoms. Would I do it again? Coming off the juice fast, it was recommended to focos on eating vegan raw foods for the first few days. To start, I got my zucchini lasagna “noodles” ready. Serves: 4

I got a huge lesson from life. I received a huge slap by life, right in my face. I was warded in the hospital and was put through countless of examinations and treatments. I started to include more vegetables and fruits into my diet and gradually decline the intake of fried food and fatty food. My 30 Days Challenge
How to Feel Really Good in 5 Steps - ZenRaw Posted by Joe | February 7, 2012 | Filed under Basics, Lists 1. Meditate We can make ourselves feel good by reaching for stimulants that are quick and dirty, such as caffeine, sugar, fried foods, alcohol, or marijuana. We can also take another path that also makes us feel good, doesn’t take much more time to do, and requires even less effort than going to the store to buy our stimulant. This other path is mediation. Add meditation to your morning routine and you will continue your day with greater focus and clarity. 2. One direct way to feel amazing throughout the day is to eat a mostly to fully raw diet. Green smoothies and green juices will be the most energizing and alkalizing part of your raw diet. For lunch have a ginormous salad that you create yourself or make following some salad recipe. We are supposed to be talking about only raw food on here aren’t we? 3. Enough cannot be said about exercise and it’s link to happiness. 4. 5. Related Posts No related posts.

Vegan Cashew Cheese (yes, it is stupidly easy) | WARNING: This shiz is like crack, you will want more. You will dream about it and you will make it again and again. You will probably even want to roll it up and smoke it. It’s that good (I’ve never actually done crack or smoked cashew cheese, for the record). Not only is this vegan cashew cheese delish times infinity, it’s super versatile so you can easily have a batch in your fridge at all times, use it many a different way and it will never get old and go bad from being ignored. You can put it on pizza or crumble it on a big green salad. This recipe is out of my second cookbook, Bold Vegan – Food for the Body and Soul. Note* You will have to soak the cashews for at least 1 hour. Makes 1 cup (210g) Soy free / gluten free 1 cup cashews (130g) soaked in 3 cups (709 ml) of water for at least 1 hour. 2 teaspoons lemon juice (10ml) 1/2 teaspoon salt (3g) 2 turns fresh black pepper 1/4 cup water (60ml) Notes xo Molly
Raw Strawberry Lemonade Tartlettes I finally ventured outside for a walk today with my boyfriend Eric after work, because I decided that 45 was warm enough. I guess I am being a bit of a wimp about the cold lately that is still clinging to Minnesota, but it snowed last weekend. Last year it was already in the seventies at this time and I was wearing shorts. My Mom had asked if I could make lemon curd bars, and I was going to, but I did not want to make that big of a batch, so instead I decided on lemon curd tartlettes. I love strawberry lemonade in the spring and summer when berries are sweet, and so I knew tartlettes with strawberry lemon filling would be fantabulous! They were delicious as well, the filling was lusiously creamy, the perfect balance of tart and sweet between the lemon and the berries in a sweet crunchy coconut crust. Raw Strawberry Lemonade TartlettesMakes 2 2 4 inch removable bottom tart pans crusts: 2/3 cup finely shredded dried coconut 1/3 cup sprouted, dehydrated buckwheat (or additional coconut)
Fragrant Vanilla Cake Raw Bread Recipes | Raw Buckwheat Recipes It is DAY 16 of "Raw Food Recipes with Excalibur" and have I got a treat for you today! Trust me, if you want to learn about raw food or just get PHENOMENAL healthy recipes you absolutely need to know about Russell James AKA The Raw Chef. I first met Russell when I attended an event hosted by Ani Phyo and Matthew Kenney at Matthew Kenney OKC a few years ago. Russell was the guest-instructor-in-residence there, and the raw food that was served by the students under his direction was SUBLIME. Hailed by The Times as “The UK’s Leading Raw Chef” Russell has travelled all over the world teaching classes, and established himself as one of the foremost authorities on raw food preparation. Russell's food is inventive, artful, and tastes incredible. So, where did this incredible guy learn everything he knows? Russell was introduced to raw foods back in 2004 whilst participating in a fast at a spa in Koh Samui in the hopes of clearing up life-long skin problems. Russell was then on a mission!
Blue Kale Road: Homemade Sriracha A couple of years ago I got hooked on homemade sriracha. I had discovered a recipe on Food52 and made it immediately. Upon tasting the homemade sauce, my family and I declared it superior to the store-bought sriracha which we immediately tossed out in favor of our new favorite. This experience opened my eyes to the world of homemade condiments, and sriracha became my gateway condiment, if you will. Here at Blue Kale Road, I love telling you about new creations as well as family recipes, and sriracha has become a family recipe. I’ve seen quite a few variations of sriracha made in home kitchens, some are cooked, others fresh, some have fish sauce, while others have tomatoes. The clean, fresh, vibrant flavors will make your taste buds sing, and it packs a punch! Sriracha Sauce Adapted from Food52 Makes 2 cups In a large jar, combine the sliced chiles (and seeds), garlic, kosher salt and cider vinegar. The next day, pour the jar contents into a medium saucepan and add the honey.
