I have been reading a lot about the benefits of eating more raw foods...while I don't see us ever going 100% raw, I am trying to incorporate more into our diet. I thought that maybe if anyone else is trying to do this, we could post ideas and recipes here.
A couple that we like so far (even my hubby, who isn't a big fan of my eating habits ):
green bean dunkers: Trim the ends off of whole green beans. Put in a bowl and pour boiling water over them. Immediately pour the water off and plunge them into ice cold water. Marinade in a mixture of olive oil, soy sauce or Braggs Aminos, and a dash of cayenne. Serve with dip or hummus.
raw hummus: Sprout 1 cup chickpeas for 2 or 3 days. Blend in a blender with about 1/2 c. tahini, a clove or two of garlic, fresh lemon juice to taste, salt, a little cumin, and whatever else you like in your hummus. Add water until it will blend--I had to add quite a bit and keep stopping and stirring so that it didn't blog my blender up. It isn't as smooth as regular hummus but tastes great! I like it on crackers or as a veggie dip.

Leah,
I have a great book by Serene Allison it is Rejuvenate with Serene. It is a great raw food cookbook. I use it often. Also the Hacres.com website has some recipes as well.
Thanks a lot for your recipts. I am going to try those.

Here's a question, where do I find tahini? I looked in the whole foods store and the regular store but I think I'm not looking in the right section. I love hummus!
I'd like to eat more raw foods too but the availability around here in the winter is pretty tough.

Lindy,
I just got that book and I LOOOOVE it! I'm having so much fun trying her salad recipes because I am so not creative when it comes to salad making.:)
Ricki, I can get tahini at the healthy food store...at mine, it's close to the peanut butter (the stuff I get is made by Maranatha, which is also the company that makes the peanut butter that I get). Or you can order it online from Azure Standard: www.azurestandard.com
