medman Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Hey guys, Except for the summers, I don't have much time to spend preparing food. I was wondering if you might be kind enough to post your 1 or 2 favourite raw dishes that fall under the category of "fun, easy and quick". I've made some decently adventurous (for me, at least) raw stuff in the past, but some of those dishes aren't as practical when I need something fast. So, breakfast, lunch, dinner or snack - if you give me some of your quick favourites I'll be really grateful! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calusa Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 One of my favorites is made from half an avocado and a banana, or double or triple that. mash them separately with a fork on a breadboard, add to a bowl, and mix. Sprinkle with cinnamon and ground flax. Tastes awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flanders77 Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 I eat bananas, peaches, melon, apples, cucumbers, tomatoes, green leafy vegetables, carrots, and many other fruits and vegetables in season. No spices, no mixing, most of the time mono. I love to taste the magic of each piece of food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RawKev Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 (edited) step 1: Grab a ripe banana step 2: Peel banana step 3: Toss peel in compost bin or into bushes step 4: Eat banana step 5: Repeat if desired Note: Recipe can be adapted for other fruits Edited July 29, 2008 by RawKev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RawKev Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 honestly though, I made some wicked romaine tacos tonight for dinner. All you need is some big romaine leaves, make some guacamole or slice avocado.For filling chop some tomatoes, grate some carrots, raw organic corn, whatever other veg you want. I used a little mango, chopped spinach, carrot, avocado and sunflower sprouts tonight.I don't bother with the raw walnut "meat" Cashew "cheese" raw gourmet stuff. It takes way too much time and I'm allergic to nuts, but I have seen some pretty wicked looking raw tacos with all that jazz. Just fill the leaves up and eat like a taco.

Tasha Posted July 28, 2008 Share Posted July 28, 2008 step 1: Grab a ripe banana step 2: Peel banana step 3: Toss peel in compost bin or into bushes step 4: Ear banana step 5: Repeat if desired Note: Recipe can be adapted for other fruits Why did you steal my recipe ? What a jerk !!! Excepted your step 4 is different.. how do you ear a banana ? Another one you can do very easy. Buy a butt load of banana's.Blend in a blender with cold water water. OMG you have to try tr it. Note: Also try freezing your banana's. Make sure they are peeled first. It'll be creamy enough to make banana ice cream.. OMG It's so good.

calusa Posted July 29, 2008 Share Posted July 29, 2008 Drizzle a line of tahini along a peeled banana, followed by a line of honey. Eat with a spoon. You'll want to eat at least 2 or 3 large bananas - it tastes so good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balazs Posted August 10, 2008 Share Posted August 10, 2008 Hy! I think the sprouted lentils are great with tomoatos and they are Power!Sprout the lentils for 2days, and add some sliced veggies like tomato, carrot, etc...i eat this every day, full of carbs and protein and easy to make, you just have to rinse them in the morning and in the evening.i also have other easy and nutritient recipe, but the if you dont even have time for this then just grab a banana or some other fruit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
