A chance meeting with Obama in Hawaii
 the story

...remarkable thing, we both felt, was that this sparkling stranger was so much like the kind of people we meet in Paris, in Hong Kong, in the Middle East: difficult to place and connected to everywhere. Like the air of his home island... The kids next to us in the North Shore shack seemed much less concerned with where they came from than with where they were headed..

"...over the next four years, the country is likely to hear more about race from the White House — and from the perspective of a black man — than it ever has before?... the president-elect clearly does not see race as a subject best sidestepped or discussed in hushed tones. To Obama, race in all its complications has long been a defining part of his life, and he is comfortable talking about it...."  http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20081108/ap_on_el_pr/mutts_like_me

"...The new government will seek the backing of the Maori Party, formed before the 2005 election to give an authentic voice to indigenous people...."
Barack Obama's election this week as the United States' first African-American president reverberated across the world as a triumph over old stereotypes, a chord that rang especially true for minority groups, including the Maori in New Zealand.

Bhutan crowns a new King

The United States was not the only country to name a new leader this week. In Bhutan, an insular nation of about 600,000 people located high in the Himalayas, a new king was crowned. 28-year-old Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, an Oxford-educated bachelor, was crowned as Bhutan's fifth king - now the world's youngest reigning monarch. Bhutan also has the distinction of being the world's youngest democracy - having held parliamentary elections last March for the first time ever. The young ruler vows to maintain a stance of protection against the worst aspects of globalization, maintaining the "Gross National Happiness", a measurement of national progress that places a high value on spiritual development. Gross National Happiness is a term invented by, and proudly embraced by Bhutanese since 1972. (22 photos total)

Goodbye Toots
 Meet your  Meat.org

Bill Maher on Turkey day
"...Even though 98 percent of the land animals Americans eat are turkeys and chickens, the federal Humane Methods of Slaughter Act specifically excludes birds from protection. I'm not kidding...."
Taste, preference, variety, craving, the big ILLUSION perpetuated by attatchment to sensations associated with eating.
It is one thing going in and something else altogether coming out the other end after a journey through a 26 feet or so of a series of warm, dark and moist tubes and tunnels...
"...Carnivorous food in herbivorous intestines spells disaster as the flesh might get trapped in the bowel pouches and putrefy...."

The buddha was right after all.
Karma may seem mysterious because of the chaotic element which allows for some irregularities but is, otherwise, solid, reliable, concrete and obvious.

"...Dietary preferences might be an individual's sole prerogative, but do you ever wonder how your body copes with food once it's down your gullet after having been savored to the maximum by your taste buds... in the name of satiating perverse human appetites. .."
The truth about wishful thinking: "...Contrary to popular perception, there are no 'merciful' ways of killing animals...." an Indian's perspective
I sympathize with my american brethren who live in a meat saturated society sometimes, in some regions, there is no or so little alternative options to meat consumption with no real conscious connection to the source of the substance being the flesh of a once living breathing feeling animal..

 "...Once Alicia Silverstone picked me up in her Echo Car(one of the first Eco Hybrid cars ever made by Toyota) and she took me to a underground dinner in Hollywood where the Red Hot Chili Peppers showed up and joined us for one of the most delicious and amazing RAW Organic Dinners and I was surprised to meet the Red Hot Chili Peppers one of my most favorite rock groups in the World, wow that was an incredible evening to remember and a complete surprise. Alicia Silverstone is really into raw food since way back when before it became so popular this was like in 2001 I think, she also taught me so much about RAW she is an incredible amazing angel...  If you ever make “bad” raw food whether fresh or dehydrated all you have to do is add a few drops of White Truffle Oil you can find this at most health food stores, gourmet shops and sometimes at Trader Joes, for some reason it makes raw food AMAZING and will fix even the worst raw food or recipe and make it super delicious!..."  this guy has a Raw Organic Vegan Macaroni and Cheese recipe

Zucaroni and Cheeze

Raw_mac_and_chzz-large_normal

(click on image to enlarge)

4-8 Yummy People!

Satisfies a craving for macaroni and cheese. The base is like a lot of recipes on this site but I hadn’t tried this yet. I hope it inspires you too!

Ingredients

  • 3 zucchini, peeled, cut in half the long way and sliced
  • 1 red, orange or yellow pepper, deseeded
  • 1 cup raw cashews (soaked for 2 hours if possible- or over night)
  • sprinkle sea salt
  • sprinkle cayenne
  • sprinkle pepper
  • 1 tablespoon flax meal (optional)
  • sprinkle onion and garlic powder or hing
  • 1 lemon juiced
  • ½ onion
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • sprinkle paprica
  • sprinkle tumeric

Preparation

For this you can either dehydrate the zuchini beforehand or eat fresh. Cut the zuchini rounds in thirds. If dehydrating, coat with a little olive oil and salt and dehydrate for appx 6 hours. If fresh cut the thirds in half and salt and set aside.

Add everything together and blend. I blended the cashews and lemon first and then added half a yellow pepper and 1\3 red pepper. I didn’t have to add water but you may want to to make it thinner. I added a little pepper flavored olive oil- but this is optional.

Mix the cheese when it’s done with the zuchini. Enjoy!

 what? Crazy active this guy,:

no cancer allowed with this stuff, but if you are already sick you will have to watch the gourmet stuff and do a lot of juicing, fasting, cleansing at some point.
Still better than conventional SAD of course but a diseased body really needs to refrain from the digestion process at times in order to recover, heal, transform and allow the rebuilding from the inside out.

Not Chicken Nuggets

Chicken-not_nuggets2_normal

(click on image to enlarge)

Makes 36 Nuggets

Having a toddler, nieces, and nephews that love ‘nuggets’, I’ve been playing with a possible RAW, Vegan replacement for ‘chicken nuggets’. So far, I’ve come up with this recipe that both my husband and daughter like! It’s not a complete replacement for taste and texture, but a pleasing substitute!

Ingredients

Preparation

Ingredients:

Crust:
  • 1 c. Almond Meal
  • 1/4 c. Nutritional Yeast
  • 1 T. Flax seed, ground
  • 1/8 t. nutmeg
  • 1 ¼ t. Celtic Sea Salt (fine)

Mix together, set aside in bowl.

Nuggets:
  • 1 c. Sunflower seeds (soaked)
  • 2 c. Cashews (soaked)
  • 1 Zucchini
  • ¾ c. Kelp Noodles (Sea Tangle)
  • ½ c. Flax Seed
  • 2 T. Nutritional Yeast
  • 2 t. Salt
  • ½ t. Onion Salt(or more to taste)
  • ¼ t. Celery Seed
  • ¼ t. Cumin
  • 1/8 t. Nutmeg
  • Pinch Garlic Powder
  • Pinch White Pepper
  • ¼ c. Spring Water (more or less)

Place ingredients, minus water, in a food processor. Process and add water until a chunky, oatmeal cookie batter consistency, not too smooth. Scoop out with a tablespoon and shape to a nugget, roll it in the crust and put on a dehydrator screen. Repeat until used up.

Dry at 145 degrees for 1 hour, than at 100 degrees for 12 – 24 hours, until just damp in the middle. Serve warm from dehydrator. I freeze extras and warm in dehydrator before eating.


 

Rich Cheddar Sauce

Adapted from “Rejuvenate Your Life” by Serene Allison. I found it on Raw Food Talk. I find this sauce is creamiest when I use soaked cashews. It can be used for pizza, on top of warmed broccoli, in lasagna, etc.

PLEASE NOTE: I have listed this recipe in the Kids category, but babies and some young toddlers (such as those with a family history of nut allergies) should not eat any nut products. Please consult your pediatrician before serving nuts to your child.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup raw cashews, sunflower seeds or almonds
  • ½ large red bell pepper
  • ¼ cup water
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1 tablespoon tahini
  • 1½ teaspoons sea salt
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 2 teaspoons onion powder (or a small slice of onion or 1 Tbsp of green onion)

Preparation

Blend all ingredients until creamy. Add more water if it is too thick.


 

"Crazy Bread" Crackers

This is adapted from a recipe that was originally posted by Sweetlips on Raw Food Talk, and then adapted by Rawkinlocs. They are rumoured to taste like a certain pizza chain’s Crazy Bread. I don’t know about that, but they sure are tasty!

Apparently, you should not use green peppers for these crackers. I usually use half red pepper, and half yellow, which gives the crackers a lovely flavor and color.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup cashews (or pine nuts)
  • 1 whole bell pepper
  • ¼ cup sundried tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 slice jalapeno (or 1/4 tsp of hot pepper flakes)
  • ¼ teaspoon paprika
  • ¼ teaspoon onion powder
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon sea salt
  • juice from half a lemon

Preparation

Blend all the ingredients until smooth.

Pour onto a Teflex sheet and use a spatula to score into squares. Dehydrate at 115 overnight, or at least 8 hours. Then flip over onto the mesh sheet, and dehydrate until the crackers are crispy, approx. another 6-8 hours.

If you like, you can sprinkle a little more sea salt on the top of the crackers.


 

Shazzies Pizza

Shazzies_pizzaimg_2513_normal

(click on image to enlarge)

This makes one big pizza. The size of a dehydrator tray. I recommend doubling it.

This is adapted from ‘Detox delights’ by Shazzie. (www.shazzie.com) This is worth the effort. Make double the recipe, you will want to eat more of it, I always make two at once. It is very reminisant of cooked pizza and really helps to squash bready,carby junk food cravings. The photo is kindly donated by the wonderful Mygreenmojo, it looks great thank you!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups buckwheat sprouts, just sprout for 24 hours
  • 2 bananas
  • 1 stick of celery
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 5 fresh ripe tomatoes
  • 3 cups dried tomatoes, soak for 1/2 hour before using
  • 1 red onion
  • 1 orange or red bell pepper
  • 5 mushrooms
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • teaspoon good salt
  • 3 dates, soak for 15 mins if using dried dates
  • 2 tablespoons unrefined organic olive oil
  • 1 cup pine nuts
  • 1 cob of corn
  • 1 white or yellow onion

Preparation

Base:Process the buckwheat, celery, garlic, bananas together in food processor Spread out onto a dehydrator tray until 2cm thick. Slice tomatoes thinly and press into the base. Dehydrate for about a day until solid, but not too crispy.

Topping: make 3 cups of dehydrated tomatoes (or use sun dried), blend in food processor with 1/4 cup onion, one ripe tomato, 2 teaspoons of lemon juice, 3 dates (soaked if not fresh) and a teaspoon of salt until it is a deep red colour and everything is smooth. It takes a while to do it thoroughly. You may need a touch of water to get it smooth. Spread this on the pizza crust after it is dehydrated.

Cut up the peppers and mushrooms and red onion, sprinkle all over a dehydrator tray and dehydrate while you’re dehydrating the crust, for a few hours until the veggies have softened.

Cheese: Process the corn and the pine nuts with the olive oil until it is really creamy, add salt to taste, spread it over a dehydrator tray and dehydrate while you’re drying everything else for about 6 hours or until it has gone golden and a little hard on one side, just do one side.

So once the crust, cheese and veggies are dehydrated you can assemble the pizza. Do this just as you are about to eat it.

Spread the tomato sauce on the pizza, then the veggies and then the cheese, softest side down.

Chili Cheese Fries

Chili_cheese_friessmall_normal

(click on image to enlarge)

4 to 5 Servings

This is one of my unique inventions and creations 3 years ago in my 1st book RAW IN TEN MINUTES I am surprised people don’t talk about it or I don’t see it elsewhere it is a really fun recipe! My roommates in the Mission in San Francisco were really enthusiastic when I was writing RAW IN TEN MINUTES and they asked me a lot of questions. One asked me if I had a Chili Cheese Fries recipe, so I thought about it and came up with this one! One other roommate asked if I had a “Steak” recipe he was vegetarian but was joking around but I came up with one that I will post later too. Chili Cheese Fries yum, this one really looks and tastes like it too!

Ingredients

  • 1 Yellow Bell Pepper, Cut into thin strips like "fries"
  • 1 cup Marinara Sauce, Plop on top of "fries"
  • 3 cups "Ground Beef", Put on top of Sauce
  • 1 cup Carrots, Shredded or grated
  • 1 cup Nacho Cheese Sauce, Blended

Preparation

Ok cut the yellow bell peppers into “French Fries” like shapes. Place into serving plate or find those paper fries things they usually serve it in to make it more “authentic”. Then drizzlie olive oil and sprinkle some sea salt on it. Then to make marinara sauce blend soaked sundried tomatoes, fresh roma tomatoes, Miso Master Organic ChickPea Miso, a little water, olive oil together in the Blendtec Blender then put that on top of the “fries”. To make my “Ground Beef” recipe I invented just blend or grind Sunflower Seeds dry in the Blendtec Blender again this is the only way I know to get it just right I tried other equipment and ways to make it but only the Blendtec will grind the sunflower seeds into the perfect consistency seriously. So once it is ground up really well put sunflower seeds into mixing bowl, add some olive tapenade from a jar and stir and mix with a fork and drizzle some olive oil on this mixture as you are mixing it by hand this will turn into Raw Organic “Ground Beef” quickly. Then spoon this on top of the sauce. Then grate some carrots and sprinkle that on top of everything it looks like the “Cheddar Cheese”. Then finally make the Nacho Cheese Sauce, this is from my book too but you blend pine nuts, turmeric, chicpea miso, olive oil in the Blendtec and pour on top like Nacho Cheese in the photo I poured it into a “Om” shape for fun because I was really into Yoga when I was writing my book and doing photos, I still am really into Yoga too. Drizzle with more olive oil for the greasy fun Chili Cheese Fries look and taste, enjoy!
