I'd add in dandelion leaves to the suggestions! I can't buy organic kale or spinach in France, and so just pick a bunch of dandelion leaves from the garden to make my smoothies "green" (in addition to courgette which I guess counts too!)
Thanks Camiheartsraw for the advice, I do have a food processor. I guess it just seems I am trying to make this too complicated. Maybe my problem is I am not buying enough stuff to keep around. I know it will take time for me to learn how to uncook. I never was good at just throwing things together when I did cook either. :)
I do have a dehydrator. I actually just made my first batch of crackers, which I really like. Never tried nut/seed paste before. Do you just eat it? Going to try some bread in the dehydrator next. I drink green smoothies every morning, so I love those. I am getting in the groove of knowing what to have on hand, after my smoothie I eat fruit. Have to work on dinners, just being lazy, I mean how hard is it to make a salad, I just dont have enough on hand, going to the store tonight.
When you say wrap, what do you wrap it in besides a lettuce or green leaf?
Hi blakejack- I rarely use any of my cookbooks since they almost always call for a lot of dehydration time and a lot of ingredients that cost too much. I use my juicer everyday for juice in the morning and maybe a salad and pate for lunch and a smoothie for dinner. I'll have fruit throughout the day. I always make sure to have lots of fruit, veggies, and sunflower seeds/almonds on hand.
iliveyourdream: I know what you mean about overwhelming, I thought the cracker recipe in my cookbook seemed so hard but once I did it I thought well next time it would be a breeze. I have a sweet cracker recipe that I am going to make sometime soon, said to put nut butter and fruit on them, sounds yummy, or some kind of choc sauce or ganache would be good too. What kind of bars are you talking about? Do you have any recipes for those? I am a snacker especially in the afternoon and I dont get home till late so that is what usually gets me to eat nonraw food in the evening. I havent tried any kind of raw pasta or sauces, although I have a few recipes. Basil is just so expensive around here, I need to grow some on my windowsill. What other kinds of pestos do you make?
Luxdivon-thanks sounds yummy!!
Man I wish I could get my hubbie to cook like that for me :) He is a meat and potatoes man, so I guess I am on my own for now!!!
