Raw Curried Cabage Salad



This Raw Curried Cabbage Salad was amazing! I found the recipe on about.com, submitted by Jolinda Hackett. I didn't have any sesame seeds, but it proved to be unnecessary.

The recipe includes
* 1 head green chopped cabbage
* 1/3 cup shredded raw coconut
* 2 tbsp lemon juice
* 1/4 cup olive oil
* 1/4 cup Nama Shoyu
* 3 tbsp sesame seeds
* 1/3 tsp turmeric
* 1/2 tsp curry
* 1/2 tsp cumin

Mix it all together and you have one yummy raw meal.

Raw Watermelon Gazpacho Soup!


This is no Campbell's cup of soup!

I blended together about...

2 c Watermelon
1/2 c Onion
1/2 c Yellow Bell Pepper
1/2 c cucumber
1/2 fresh squeezed lime juice
1 garlic clove
1 whole Jalapeno
3 sprigs fresh cilantro
1/2 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper

After processing the above ingredients I added some chopped fruit/veggies for texture.
(Watermelon, Onion, Yellow Bell Pepper, and Cucumber).

*The jalapeno I used was unforgiving. I recommend using only 1/3 or 1/2 of a small jalapeno to start.

Overall, this recipe was super yummy and simple.
