Thx!

I slice them kinda thick and you want the bananas nice and ripe so they're really sweet.

Sunny: Mmm, do you dip in agave or honey? How long do you dehyrate?

I have the eggplant bacon on my list too. I hope it's not like the Mac & cheese!

Have have you Kenney fans looked on page 128 of Everyday Raw? Holy mother of pearl! That is so doable and easy looking. I hesistate though. What if it's as good as it looks? If so, guess what I'll be eating morning, noon and night!

From Peter's current Newsletter:

My favorite salad

Ingredients:

* spinach,
* kalamata olives,
* pepperoncini,
* sunflower seeds,
* raisins,
* crushed tomato (I like the flavor of a tomato crushed by hand better than one that is cut up.),
* olive oil,
* lemon juice,
* sea salt,
* cayenne pepper or a little diced, fresh jalapeno pepper,
* carrots,
* celery and
* optionally, whatever other vegetables or fruits you have and like, such as pineapple, broccoli, mushrooms, grapes, fennel, asparagus, etc.

It's important to alternate various kinds of greens because eating one kind exclusively, such as spinach or romaine, can create mineral imbalances or even kidney stones!
You need to know when you are preparing raw food, that although cooked food or prepared foods always taste the same, raw food varies in flavor. For example, pasta always tastes like pasta, but this is not true of fresh tomatoes or pepperoncini—sometimes more flavor, sometimes less. So measuring is out. Tasting is in.

Also, always try to ensure you have all five flavors in your dishes:

* sweet (This makes a big difference in taste—big!),
* sour,
* salty,
* spicy, and
* bitter (usually herbs)

They don't have to be intense, but just a little of each really enlivens the taste.

I maybe outta line here (But hey, thats how i roll)
I got this thing I put together kinda often.
PIZZA !!!... yes Pizza, ya know, with that "BadThing called dough?)
BUT, dont blow a gasket just yet, you can add more 100% pure,
organic, Holier-Than-Thou VegtableStock and use it for a soup too
....thats what I love about this...

Blanch-n-peel 1/2 doz tomatoes
Crush 4~ Chop 2

Dice up 2-3 cloves-0-garlic / 1 med onion (I prefer RED)
Slice about 4-5 Shrooms (I like Shitake)


Get a bit of OliveOil nice-n-hot and toast the garlic, then add the onion & shrooms
All stirred up nicey nice, then add the tomatoes and lower the thing to a simmer.

All stirred up, add 1.5 or 2 bags of chopped Baby Spinach, Stir, cover-n-simmer for 15-20min.

You can spread the mixture on 6" round PitaBread, or FlatBread, top with Mozz
and place in 425deg oven til cheeze is the way ya want it
~OR~ add VeggieStock and have a soup that tastes good & good for ya.

PS... I usually add other spices while spinach is all wilted. ie; Six Blend Pepper,a nd our
ever popular Cayenne

Hope ya take the pizza thing with a grain of SeaSalt...enjoy
Oh yeah, by the way, that pizza goes GREAT with GUINNESS!!
...hey thats why I cleanse once/year!!!

HAHAHA, yeah well I do Lamb Stew (brunswick) with Guiness and Irish Soda bread. WINK WINK! I've discovered that currently my favorite beer is the Red Chimay (made by monks and I'm not kidding). I had it once and fell in love. I'll be having it again when #3 son comes down in 2 weeks for a visit! Mmmm Pizza and beer.

[R.B.]

I'm happy to see another lover of good beer, I wish there was more than soup for recipes.
Since cleansing, I admit that less meat is consumed, but, by NO means eliminated.

I had made an EggPlant Chili that turned out pretty good, but I didnt go by a recipe. Just went with what I found in the fridge...I'll be sure to document the next attempt and post it here. I DO remember adding Guinness since I ran out of VeggieStock

You guys have great recipes. End of day 10 for me today, my very first cleanse. I'm getting ready to break the fast tomorrow, and go Raw.

I have a dehydrator but it's one of those round black called Ronco Food Dehydrator. I used to make a lot of beef jerky during the Holidays. I'm not sure if it's going to work as good as the Excalibur, since it doesn't have a temperature setting. Does anyone think that I can use the Ronco and get great recipe results too?

I've purchased a few Raw recipe book from Amazon. I will be coming back to read more posts recipes from everyone, it's been very helpful to me. Since I love to work in the kitchen, I will be creating Raw food recipes and will share them with everyone also.

Res: You have great recipes, thanks so much.

I'm looking for a raw bread recipe using rolled oats. I remember my grandmother used to make thin bread using rolled oats but my mom cannot remember the recipe. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks again, and God Bless.

Hello everyone, I am so happy after working all day in the kitchen and created something so yummylicious . I tried to be creative with the recipe for Sundried Tomato Bread, since I didn't have time to make sprouted buckwheat, I made some substitution and was very successful with it. I made Sundried Tomato Bread with Avocado Spread, oh it's to die for. Here's the recipe:

Sundried Tomato Bread

1 cup raw wheat germ
1 cup raw sunflower seeds
1 cup sundried tomatoes, soaked (save the water)
2 garlic cloves
2 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sea salt
Handful of fresh herbs, or pinch of dry herbs
1 large tomato
3 tbsp flax seeds

Blend all ingredients in food processor. Spread on teflex-lined dehydrator 1/4-1/2" thick, dehydrate for 3 hours at 110 degrees, flip over and dehydrate for another 8 hours, or longer depending on the texture you prefer. You can use some of the water used to soak the sundried tomatoes if the mixture is a little dry. It has to be spreadable. You can use dry herbs but I prefer using fresh rosemary. 8-12 servings.

Avocado Spread

1 ripe avocado
juice of 1 small lemon (oh my!!, I am a lemonhead )
dash of sea salt (optional)
dash of Bragg liquid aminos
1-2 tbsp olive oil

Mix all ingredients on a blender until smooth. Refrigerate in a tight sealed jar. Spread thin layer over Sundried Tomato Bread and enjoy.

This is so yummy. I made my bread really thin and cut them into 4X4 pieces. I plan to eat one slice a day with my plate of salad or lettuce wrap for dinner. If you guys try this let me know what you think. I had everybody at home loving it, even though I am the only person that eats RAW in my house of 6 people.
