• I am totally making this up, but it might work. Try combining dates, almond butter and a little dark agave in a food processor. Then, take about a half cup of nuts (maybe pine nuts or macadamias) and pulse them in the food processor with a couple te…

• Yum! Like the choc-PB cookie recipe, Jenoz! And I hadn’t thought about Artisana Bliss. I just bought some. Sounds like we do different types of travel, Jenoz. I have come to accept that it’s easier for me to eat mono meals and simple combos at home.…

• Oh! I thought this WAS the documentary. I just spent $30 for something I probably don’t want… LOL. Willmize, I’d recommend you get the Rave Diet DVD. Skip the book. Even though I haven’t seen the Raw for Life DVD, if you’re looking for inspirational…

• Thank you for letting us know, Josh. I thought they would send out an announcement since I signed up to the mailing list, but apparently no.

• Zucchini makes good chips and you don’t have to slice super thin to get then crispy.

• I was in Matt’s restaurant in Santa Monica a couple weeks ago. I had the Big Matt. It is REALLY good as was everything else I ordered. I also made Big Matts at home and froze a couple patties so that I could take them with me to Florida last week. D…

• The carrot bread recipe on this site comes close for me. Throw in some raisins and nuts.

• Fancyjane, can you post your recipe for the cheeze spread? I used to make a very good cheeze spread but somehow have lost my touch! Bet you come make that recipe with some other nut, like sunflower seeds. Thanks. Pam

• I feel your pain. I really don’t like dietary choices to be the topic of conversation, particularly at a work-related occassion. After all, you ARE there to work. Have you tried just not talking about it? I laugh and say that I’m just a really healt…

• I believe cherries are a natural pain reliever. I’m seen bags of organic cherries at Whole Foods recently. They also sell them frozen.

• Hello, I am hypothyroid (medically induced) so I know how difficult it can be to lose weight. Unlike others, the pounds didn’t just fall off me when I went raw. I still have to really watch what I eat. The 20% that isn’t raw? What are you eating? I’…

• Sorry for the jumbled nature of this response… you’ll have to read the whole thing since my suggestions are poorly ordered! I would try to dehydrate as much as you can…like crackers and fruit leathers. I’ve seen dried coconut cream and milk online. …

• Great! Let me know how it turns out. I may try it again… my tastes are continually changing. :) Pam

  in Peas.... Comment by Pam
• Don’t know where I got this recipe from and I don’t think I have ever made it. If so, I probably don’t like it since I’m not crazy about peas. But anyway… Peamoli 2 c. fresh green peas 2 T. olive oiljuice of 1 lemon1 med. clove garlic1/4 – 1/2 t. se…

• Thanks, Odessa. It’s great that your family is so open to raw. Of course, it makes total sense to us, but parents don’t always see it that way. Raw has done a lot for me, too, but nothing so drastic as your own healing. Well done!

  in Has anyone healed an ailment with raw food? Comment by Pam
• That’s absolutely wonderful, Odessa. I wonder if a raw diet might work for a friend of mine who has MS. What do you eat in a typical day? Are you following 80/10/10 or something different? Pam

• Interesting discussion. Writeeternity, when I was vegan but not raw, I ate a ton of soy and it completely messed me up. When I stopped, my periods straightened out. I tried to ease up on my self-imposed soy restrictions and it happened again. I also…

• I am a consultant and I travel a fair amount, though it tends to be pretty sporadic. I live alone so my time is my own. My daughter is doing raw for herself and her son and she’s a preschool teacher making very little. But I help her a lot by sendin…

• You need to give that blender a good stern talking-to. If you don’t smoke, your blender certainly shouldn’t! ;o)

• Alissa Cohen also has shorter retreats. Also, check out rawfoodinfo.com under Lifestyle Events or something like that. (I believe this is Rhio’s site that Zoe is referring to above.)

• I second the vote for Mad Cowboy. I think Omnivore’s Dilemma is a bit tedious, although the author’s NY Times article was fascinating.

  in Teaching Teenagers about food Comment by Pam
• Thanks, Lucy! I’ll check out the soup recipe, though she’s going to have to find a cheap source of avos. She lives in a small town, but I told her to check the one Asian store. If you don’t strain the seeds out, then I guess Hungry Girl is right… th…

• Hey Lucy. Sounds delicious! Thank you so much! So you just blend the sunnies, water and agave and you don’t strain? That’s super easy… and, yes, cheap. She’ll love it! I am lost with what to tell her. She is the complete opposite of me. I look at fo…

• I don’t know, Lucy, but I was wondering if you can tell me how to make sunflower milk? My daughter is very thin and on a really tight budget. After my last visit, she went raw and started to lose weight… and it’s very expensive for her to make almon…

• I had the same thing happen to me at a wedding. When the waiter came around with the food, I just turned it down. I told everyone I just wasn’t hungry and have allergies to boot (which is true). However, you might try calling the theatre in advance …

• Probably has to be super cold and you need something like a Magic Wand type wand blender and a narrow container. That’s how you whip skim milk. Where did you get the powder?
