The ultimate fast food! I love how a raw, plant-based diet is so bright and colorful. Like a rainbow every meal.
Bibimbap for dinner
Bibimbap is a great way to have a nearly 100% raw dinner with a good dose of probiotics. This is not authentically Korean, but it is definitely inspired by bibimbap. Served here with shiitake mushrooms, sunflower shoots, homegrown broccoli sprouts, beets, carrots, wakame, black sesame serfs, locally made kim chee, and some warm wild rice.

The O.S.K. Real Meal Replacement System
Forgot all those commercial so-called meal replacements. This is my dinner tonight. Took me 5 minutes to make. It provides every imaginable vitamin, especially since I proceeded it with one of my medicinal drinks made of nutritional yeast, kelp, wheat grass, turmeric, and ester-c with bioflavonoids (the only vitamin supplement I believe in).
Power smoothie recipe–add more banana, apple, or avocado and exclude the onion if you are not used to this sort of nutritional punch:
- 1/4 onion
- 1/8 red cabbage
- 2 leaves kale
- 1/2 beet
- 1/2 banana
- 1 carrot
- 1 celery stalk
- 1 T. ground flax
- 1 T ground hemp
- 2 T. sprouted chia seeds

Beans are so pretty
Beans are so underrated! Here are just a few of my jars of beans on the top shelf in my kitchen. This is not even a great photo, and it excludes all the red beans (kidneys, adukis), and it still looks like a rainbow to me.

Smoothie time!
You absolutely cannot drink a blender full of vegetables and feel bad afterward. I’m high.

A typical lunch for us: fresh fruits, vegetables, and sprouts
Even raw food can be fast food! Aside form sprouting the lentils for a day or so, this meal was pretty spontaneous. If it looks light to you, remember that the more raw you eat, the more nutrients you absorb, and the less you need to eat to get by. Raw food has an extraordinary nutrient-to-calorie ratio, and I find that the more raw I eat the less heavy food I require. Ingredients: Orange, onion, avocado, parsley, and sprouted brown lentils.

Vegan orange poppyseed cupcakes
Amazing. Amazing. Amazing.
Adapted from the cake recipe in the Angelica Kitchen cookbook. I’ll post the recipe soon. Even though there are a lot of steps to making such good vegan icing, I can do it in about 20 minutes now. Agar agar, arrowroot, and fresh orange juice and zest are the secret ingredients.

Just in the Oven: Sweet Potatoes with Rosemary and Garlic
I was trying to make sweet potato fries without frying… I don’t think I turned the oven up high enough because they got mushy and not crunchy. But still delicious!
