Raw: Day 3


I made some "Coco Crispies" in the dehydrator yesterday out of soaked buckwheat...
I will soak some Brazil nuts today so I can make Vanilla Brazil Nut Milk to eat them with.
Usually Brazil nuts are like eight dollars a pound at sunflower but the only reason I got them was because they were on sale for four dollars a pound.

I also made Jalapeno Corn Tortilla chips in the dehydrator...they may not look great but they are the tastiest raw food i've ever made!!


Made some raw chocolate pudding out of a coconut. It's a little soupy but tastes like real chocolate pudding. yum.


When I get hungry and don't want to eat any more fruit/veggies I just eat a larabar. They are raw and made from nuts and fruits and are super tasty. The cashew cookie is my favorite one.


On Sunday we went to the Blue Nile to get a raw dinner, and I did eat some cooked injera with lentils but I had a raw chile rellano and raw cinnamon rolls (very tasty). Last night I had a little bit of the pasta I made for the kids after a salad, so I'm not 100% raw really. I've learned though, that just because I eat one cooked thing does not mean I've fallen off the wagon. I still try to make every meal/snack count, and I can really tell the difference. Also since i've done this before, I already knew all of the staples I would need from the store and it was a lot less stressful to start eating raw again. I don't have to run to the store and buy 50 things (just a few..) and I don't have to look in a book for an idea everytime I'm hungry (uh and I don't have to buy a dehydrator, juicer, and blender..). I don't know yet how long I'm doing this, just one day at a time so far!!!

p.s. I miss coffeeeeee
