Juicing Wheatgrass

Wheatgrass is a complete food and an excellent source of vitamin C, E, K and B complex (including B12). In the minerals department, it is rich in calcium, cobalt, germanium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, protein, sodium, sulfur, and zinc. It is often called “Liquid Sunshine” because of its very high content of chlorophyll, which is the green pigment that harnesses the sun’s energy.

Measuring Utensils and Scales

I like to think of raw food cuisine as a form of art, whereas baking is a combination of science and precision. Unlike baking, raw food recipes are forgiving. A decade ago, I thought that I wanted to be a baker because I couldn’t cook anything without a recipe. I loved… read more »

How to Store Your Knives

To preserve the quality of a knife and our fingertips, we need to start off with some proper storage ideas. I will be sharing many different ways that you can store your “investments.” It will be up to you to decide which works best, with consideration of your family and kitchen space.

Knives that I Recommend

Knives are a valuable tool to have in the kitchen… a sharp one that is. Some of you may not be aware of this, but a dull knife can cause more harm than a sharp one.

#1 – Ice Cream Machine – Why and What I Recommend

raw vegan ice cream

I don’t know a person that doesn’t enjoy ice cream. Oddly enough, I consumed more ice cream while living in Alaska then I ever did living in warmer climates. What’s up with that?  During my heavy ice cream eating days, I never dreamed of making homemade ice cream… that didn’t happen until I started learning about the raw, whole food lifestyle.

Non-Dairy Milk Supplies

almond-milk-in-bottle-480

Non-dairy milks are a raw vegan staple. If you haven’t experienced freshly made milks, whether they are made from nuts, seeds, coconut, or even some grains… you are missing out. Boxed versions that you can find on the grocery store shelves are typically loaded with unnecessary ingredients and are void flavor. And that my friend is just a crime.

Cutting Boards

Smoothie Recipe Template

Raw Food Diet

When you blend fruits and vegetables, the cells of the plants break down, and digestibility is improved. BUT even with that, be sure to chew your smoothies. The chewing process starts the release of the saliva in your mouth. The mixture of saliva and your food is where digestion begins.… read more »
