    Zoe…as we speak I’m drinking a green shake made of 1/6 of a cucumber and the rest organic baby spinach. Spinach makes me feel wicked too. Italian parsely greens are a close second, but they aren’t as heavenly when blended…ahhh let me have another sip!!
    Spinach, I’m just a jeepster for your love

    Yes!! I love reading all the wonderful replies…so much raw food love :)
    green smoothies would have to be my fav…I made one with organic spinach, romaine hearts and a wee bit of pineapple today…amazing! Tasted like pineapple cream! Something about greens…so soothing to the senses; really is like blood to me. Pukalele, I haven’t tried durian, but I’ve been reading everything I can about durian for the last 6 months (not to mention watching all the durian 1st timers on youtube.com). Mango inspired my quest for durian (he moved for love of it)! Sadly, there are none where I live. I asked for a durian for Christmas though crosses fingers...what a holiday feast that would be!

  • After 3 months of being raw I tried baby sunflower greens for the first time last week. I bought some from a lady at a raw food potluck and went home and proceeded to eat them for lunch and dinner for three days. I added some sprouts that I sprout myself to each salad. They are alfalfa, broccolli, radish, clover, mung beans, green lentils, and garbanzos- not all, of course in every salad, just maybe 3 different ones in each salad. I also added soaked pumpkin seeds. Then I made a great Asian dressing from Natalia Rose’s Raw Food Detox book. I absolutely crave these salads! I drove across town to meet the lady again for more greens because I couldn’t bear to run out. I have ordered supplies now to grow my own! This is from someone who wouldn’t eat a vegetable 3 or 4 years ago. I used to eat pretty much nothing but meat, dairy & bread back then. I think knowing how good for me these things are makes it that much sweeter!
