Gonna have a very busy morning so I better get myself ready soon.

Enyoing a smoothie at the moment with 1 banana, 1 apple, 1 T Lucuma 1 T Maca and a hand ful of gojiberries RAW ENERGY! And then as I did yesterday poured the excess smoothie in to a small glass and put a couple of teaspoons of chlorella in it.

Uncooked non-fried beans & mushrooms

For lunch I made
Shazzie's non-fried beans with some minor changes.
And then I made some non-fried mushrooms, really simple and absolutely beautiful. You basically just slice as many mushrooms as you want, place them in a bowl cover with tamari soy, or at least gently massage the mushrooms with tamari put in the dehydrator or owen ( ON THE LOWEST TEMPERATURE ) for about 1-2 hours.

I served it on a bed with mixed lettuce, snow peas, cherry tomatoes and sprinkled some nutritional yeast on top for a "Mexican plate" hihi

Was soooo goood! Gonna make this very very soon again!

Raw day 6

God morning!
Today I started my day with a green juice (cucumber and celery) then I did 20 min yoga and then I went to the fruit shop. Unfortunately, they don't sell organic fruits and vegs there :( and I don't have a car so that's my only option at the moment.

Anyway, I bought a fairly big piece of pineapple which I mixed with handful of gojiberries and juice of 2 oranges. It became quite a lot of smoothie (couldn't fit all in my glass so I poured some in a separate little glass and added chlorella powder to it about 2 teaspoons. Bought it recently but today was the first time I tried it. It contains even more chlorophyll than spirulina!! Which is very good if you're doing a detox. Taste-vise, I think I prefer spirulina i smoothies, not that chlorella had ha bad taste it just have a much stronger sea weed flavor, which I don't reckon goes as well with sweet fruits as spirulina. And as with all other superfoods it is packed with vitamins, minerals, protein, antioxidants. Gonna do some more research about chlorella and write a more specific description of it.

Have a juicy day!

My day

Just when I had finished the crust for my Raw Pistachio and Lemon cheeze cake and was about to do the cheeze they called in from work as asked me if I wanted to come in. Now I am home and I finished them off, have a feeling they gonna be AMAZING.

Before I made them I made Raw Goji chili Chocolate, which turned out to be heavenly.
Gonna save this recipe for my ebook :)

Thought I would share the cheeze cake recipe with you! Both me and my boyfriend LOVED IT

Raw Lemon and Pistachio Cheeze Cake

For the crust:
3 medjool dates
1/2 C pistachios
optional pinch of himalayan crystal salt)

Blend in a food processor or high speed blender until smooth. But the mixture in a pie dish or individual molds.

For the cheeze:
1/4 C cashew nuts (soaked for at least 6 hours)
2-3 T agave (depending on how sweet you want it) I used 2
1 T coconut oil
1/4 C water
LARGE handful of pistachios
Juice and peel of 1 Lemon

Blend everything in a high speed blender until very smooth, scoop over the crust and freeze at least 2.5 hours, depending on how thick they are

For thicker cheeze cake double the amount of cheeze mixture, they become fairly thin with just one batch. Still heavenly good though :)

Enjoy!

Good Morning! Raw day 5

I woke up at 6.30 today, feeling wide awake, it's a weired but really pleasant feeling.
Living on raw food just gives me so much energy and during those few hours that I sleep I am sleeping like a baby.

There was no fruits in the house today except for some strawberries in the fridge so I went out got a couple of bananas and made up a Strawberry Chocolate Mint smoothie for breakie! Was lovely. I used strawberries, bee pollen, cocoa, carob powder, mint and bananas and a little bit of ice and some water. Finished off with a wheat grass shot.

Bee Pollen is one of my newest discoveries. Although, I have known about it for a while I have never really tried it until a week ago. For you who haven't heard about it here is a little bit of information.

Bee pollen is a very powerful superfood and is considered to be one of the most complete foods found in nature. It contains all the essential amino acids, A B C and D vitamin, minerals such as calcium, zinc, barium, boron, selenium, iron, magnesium, iodine, manganese, sodium, phosphorus, copper and potassium, and to shine even more it is an alkaline food. One bad thing about bee pollen is that it can cause allergic reactions, so If you are sensitive to bee products you may wanna consult with a specialist before trying it.

Have a Rawsome day!

I started my detox on Saturday, decided that I had to do something because I felt so run down, depressed, low energy levels, bad skin etc etc.

Yesterday I did a 24 hours water fast and I was surprised over how well it went! I stopped eating the night before around 6 and then I didn't eat until 6 a'clock the day after, then I enjoyed a LOT of water melon (which tasted just amazing) and some raw naughty chocolates :D
