Oatmeal Super Antioxidant Bites
Oatmeal is a quick and easy go to option for a nutritious breakfast, but it can also be the most fun. Pairing deliciously with just about any fruit, seed or nut, you can create your own wonderful combination to fit your lifestyle needs. Oatmeal is a naturally gluten free option that isn’t just for breakfast anymore. The first flavor I experimented with was “Nutella”. The scent of hazelnuts and chocolate transports me to my cousin Vita’s house on Staten Island. She would give us all a spoonful of the creamy spread and we would go outside on the stoop and eat our treat. Our chocolate hazelnut bite is a healthy…
Watermelon Sashimi & Forbidden Rice
Watermelon sashimi is the new summertime favorite in our house. Watermelon is in season from late spring into late fall. This sweet, juicy fruit is great on it’s own or wonderfully complimented with a variety of savory herbs and spices. In this recipe we use Japanese sashimi as an inspiration to show the versatility of using dehydrated watermelon. When creating healthy raw options we try not to mimic meat, instead we try to inspire you to satisfy your nutritional needs with raw vegan food. So while watermelon will never replace fish for instance, once you try our sashimi, you’ll never want those bland and boring little vegetable rolls ever again.…
Babaganoush Dip
This raw eggplant tahini dip tastes like babaghanoush and hummus had a baby.
Summer Fun Fruity Ice Pops
Ice pops are quick and easy treats that everybody loves – especially kids. Puree and freeze any fruit or vegetable or even turn your favorite shake into a summertime treat! The combinations are endless! Sometimes we go nuts with flavors here because we have a lot of things growing on the farm and why not get inventive? Never turn up your nose at the basics though, because they’re delicious, too. We have children here so we use those silly ice pop molds, but you can use ice trays instead. Just pop in the blender and liquify for a delicious frozen smoothie when you’re in the mood. Keep in mind that…
Heirloom Tomatoes & Zucchini Spaghetti
Coming from an Italian heritage, it’s super easy to eat raw or vegan. While we are known for our breads, meats and cheeses, fresh fruits and vegetables are also a staple in an Italian home. Of course, no Italian kitchen is complete without tomatoes. I’m growing several varieties, and I’ll eat a tomato like an apple, no accoutrements necessary- but herbs make everything better! Here on the farm we have a lot of fresh Italian herbs growing everywhere. It all reminds me of my childhood in New York. The peppery scent of oregano triggers memories of my grandfather’s roof garden. He put it in and on everything. Until I started…

Spiced Tropical Fruit Chips
Not everyone who is raw or vegan can turn to nuts as a snack, and those that can, should probably think twice: a lot of alternatives are nut-based too! So what are we to do when we are craving something savory? Turn everything into a chip! So, we did just that. Well, maybe not everything, but damn if we haven’t tried. And what we did we get? Chips that are good for you and taste great too! The main fruits we used to make the chips are: watermelon, pineapple, mango, coconut, strawberries, oranges, bananas, plantains, apples and pears. It seems like we have a tropical theme going on, but, not…
Seeds, Scraps and The Birth of a Garden
Whether you’re trying to save money or the environment, turning your scraps and seeds from used produce, into a garden is an easy and fun hobby. I took it up in an effort to spend less time going to the grocery store! Some fruits, vegetables and herbs work amazingly well, like onions, garlic, bok choy or mint. Some will grow, but you might not get the results you’re hoping for -like with carrots or beets. Unfortunately, some store bought produce have either been treated or they’re clones and hybrids and scraps from these will not reproduce or propagate. These will just piss you off. I have tried some of these…
