Hello Bloggy peeps!
I feel like I have not posted on here in FOREVER! With my laptop getting fixed, well virus being removed, I have had to resort to using my desktop, which I don't like so much. I like the freedom to be able to move around if I want... know what I mean?
I have a few recipes to share. First, Manna Bread. Have you tried this? I LOVE bread and it is one of the things I can not go without. Raw or not, I have to have it. I saw some manna bread in the freezer section of my local health food store and had to try making my own after hearing rave reviews. So here it goes....
I started by sprouting 2 cups of white wheat berries....
In the food processor, I put a 1/4 cup of each, cashews, pecans and almonds and pulsed until roughly chopped and transfered to a mixing bowl.
I added 1/2 the sprouted wheat berries to the food processor.
and blended until it formed a dough.
I added 1 tablespoon cinnamon and a dash of sea salt and mixed that in. Then I moved the mixture to the bowl of nuts and added 1/2 cup raisins.
Mix well and form into an oval shape on a baking sheet or your dehydrator sheet. You can bake the bread in your oven at 200 degrees for 3 hours or dehydrate until the outside is crisp and inside is still tender, about 7 hours.
With the other half of the dough I processed it with 1 tablespoon thyme, 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning and some salt. I formed an oval log and placed it on the cookie sheet. I chose to bake this batch in my oven at 200 degrees for 3 hours. I have done a loaf in my dehydrator and it comes out perfect either way. Crunchy on the outside and chewy on the inside... YUM!
Yesterday I made some juices... first my Green Lemonade...
Romaine
Dark Greens
Lemon
Apple
Ginger
Pear
Then I made some Carrot Juice with...
Carrots
Apples
Pears
Romaine
Cucumber
Last weekend I made Averie's Apple Crumble with a couple tweaks. It was so good! I took it to my sister's and I swear we could have finished the whole thing ourselves!
I mixed 1/2 cup oats, 5 medjool dates and about 5 dried mission figs, splash of vanilla, dash of pumpkin pie spice and 1/4 cup alond meal in the food processor and pressed into a tupperware container.
I chopped an apple and a pear, with the skin on and tossed with cinnamon, lemon juice and agave nectar.
I then added the apple/ pear mixture to the crust.
The I mixed 1/3 cup oats, 1/4 cup pecans, splash agave nectar, splach of stevia, splash of vanilla and more pumkin pie spice, then topped the apple mixture with the crumb topping.
This is to die for! So yummy and easy to make... Thanks Averie for the recipe, I can't wait to try it with other fruits... strawberries, peaches, blueberries.... whatever!
Last, but not least, last night I wanted something chocolate, so I made a Banana Chocolate Shake in the Vita Mix. I threw in...
1 frozen banana
1 tablespoon carob powder
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
6 drops liquid chocolate stevia
1 cup rice drink (from Trader Joes, can sub almond or any nut milk)
Blended it up...
Topped with cocoa nibs and a strawberry. Pefect!
Tomorrow I will be sharing with you... homemade Good for your Dog, Raw Carrot Pulp dog treats!

This is an epic post of great eats!
ReplyDeleteFirst, thanks for the shout out re the crumble and so glad you like it. Really, if you're hungry, it can serve 2-3 ppl. Or, it's a perfect dessert for 4 after a nice meal. It impresses guests and its so goood and it gets better on days 2-3. So actaully if you make it 24 hrs ahead of time, that's ideal b/c everything softens and just gets wonderful. dont be shy w/ the agave either :)
and the tofu, so glad it worked for you re marinading over night, yes, if i planned i could do that!
And the wheat berries, you know, i have never worked with those and i need to! The bread looks awesome and i love that relatively speaking, it's not super nut based nor is it based on juice pulp. Both of which are fine but sometimes not perfect...this version of yours looks great and i also bake rather than dehyd when i am short on time...i mean really, it's about being practical soemtimes :)
Carrot juice is very healthy and I really like it! I buy the bottled one from the vending machine every morning before I go to the office. And it keeps me going the whole day.
