Fresh Skin Saver Juice
Recipe for 2:
1/2 C Chopped Radish
6 C Green Grapes
1/2 Bunch Watercress
1-2 Lg Cucumbers
1 Ginger Knob (Thumb Size)
~Run all ingredients through juicer and enjoy~
I was lucky to find watercress at our local farmer's market but if you can't find it use 5 kale leafs instead. Grapes can be pricey so if they're not looking fun to buy substitute for more cucumber and less grapes.

Raw Nutty Chocolate Energy Bars
Mix dates & agave in food processor, scraping sides as needed. Slowly add remaining ingredients. (I like to add cherries last and just stir them in) Put mix in large bowl. Using damp hands press firmly until you get a dough like clumpy texture. Put mix on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and firmly pack mix until it's 1/4" thick. Mix should be tightly packed together forming a large rectangle. Refrigerate 45 minutes. Remove from fridge, and cut your rectangle into desirable sized bars. Scoop raw chocolate over each cut bar and spread chocolate to cover the top of each. Refrigerate so chocolate sets and keep bars in refrigerator until gone.

Raw Breakfast Smoothie
I've been making this smoothie a lot, I made it one day just using ingredients from the kitchen and it's turned into a permanent recipe. It's a great way to start off the day and is packed with nutrients that give you healthy energy. Mike and I love it and love the way it makes us feel.
1 Large Smoothie:
1 Organic Banana (Frozen)
1 1/4 C Organic Rice or Vanilla Almond Milk (Frozen)
1 Lg Tbs Raw Hemp Protein
1 Lg Tbs Raw Almond Butter
1 Lg Tbs Raw Chia Seeds
1 Lg Tbs Soy Lecithin Granules
1 Sm Scoop Raw Cocoa Powder
Agave to desired sweetness
~Blend all together in blender~
I like to freeze banana and milk for approx 45mins before blending - makes smoothie nice & cold & thicker. The vanilla almond milk is nice and sweet, enjoy switching it up from the rice milk or use 1/2 & 1/2.

Learning the Essentials

Essential Supplement - Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12 is found in meat and fish. I learned that most raw, vegans have Vitamin B12 deficiency. Without Vitamin B12 blood cells become abnormal and start to malfunction. Take a trusted source of vitamin B12 daily. Sushi is a great raw alternative~
Lots of Hues
The more colorful your plate is, the more variety of nutrients you'll get. This is the easiest way to plan on getting all your essentials of calcium, iron, protein, and healthy carbohydrates.
Up until now I've been using a blender and small food processor for everything. Mike and I are getting a juicer and dehydrator next week. I look forward to sharing more with you soon!
~Enjoy~
