Pineapple Salad with Jerk Plantain Chips
We eat a lot of salads around here and I love fruit dressing. So it seemed like a good idea to try and make a dressing using pineapple. The acid content isn’t as high as lemon, lime or vinegar, making it a super light alternative for people looking for something a bit milder. This is a simple recipe, but you will need to soak the rice from 24-48 hours. If you use forbidden rice, it will not sprout but will open up and soften. If you use purple rice, it will sprout but won’t get soft. As a matter of fact, no other rice will get soft the way Forbidden…
Stuffed Poblano Peppers with Avocado Whip

But that shouldn’t stop us from adapting any meal to fit our raw-vegan sensibilities. I chose the poblano peppers because it’s heat index is mild to medium once warmed in the dehydrator.

Don’t fret if you don’t like any spice, this recipe with work with bell peppers too. And for those of you who…
Wild Rice and Oat Raw Porridge

Ask a New Mexican what a rambutan or durian is and you’ll get a blank face staring back at you. Never heard of it. Consequently, it’s in places like this, where cold creeps in and settles like an unwelcome guest, that we need to get creative. We are beckoned from beyond the fruit bowl. And that’s…

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…
