I made these simple, easy-to-prepare (mostly raw) veggie wraps for lunch yesterday. I wanted something nutritious, tasty and satisfying, but since I was also famished, I needed something I could put together pretty quickly since I have a tendency to grab anything, healthy or not, when I’m extremely hungry. What could be faster or easier than wrapping some of your favourite fillings in a tortilla? It’s basically like making a...

Just a quickie post of the recipe for this morning’s breakfast, a mouth-watering, nutrient-dense smoothie fortified with a healthy dose of protein. I’ve grown a bit tired of my usual green smoothies and I just had one of my Strawberry Mocha Smoothies for an afternoon snack yesterday, so I wanted something a bit “out of the ordinary” this morning. It’s not that I don’t thoroughly enjoy all of the smoothies I...

I’m enjoying this beautiful Sunday afternoon in my part of the country, chillaxin’ with this delicious, coffee-infused smoothie as I listen to smooth jazz, flip through cookbooks and become better acquainted with my Nikon (I’ve vowed to only post iPhone pics here as a last resort). Yep, I’m getting my caffeine buzz on before I go into my kitchen to figure out how to transform this lovely, super sweet Taiwan melon (aka...

This is another quickie post for the delicious Spicy Portobello Steaks with Grilled Tomatoes & Onions that I prepared for dinner a few nights ago. I wasn’t in a mood for fish or seafood, but I wanted something meaty-like and since meat and poultry are no longer a part of my flow and I’m limiting the amount of highly processed, commercial “veggie meat” products (like beef-less tips, veggie burgers, etc.) in my diet,...

Just a quickie post of the dish I whipped up for lunch a couple of days ago. I was in a mood for something light with some of the delicious flavors of India. I also wanted something quick and easy that I could make from ingredients I already had on hand. Being a lover of Indian cuisine, especially curries, I had everything I needed to throw together my version of what is known in India as Chana Masala or Chole. This dish is typically served...

Just a quickie post of the recipe for a simple, but delicious smoothie combination I put together this afternoon and the new protein powder I’m using. I’ve been researching various protein supplements looking for a clean, non-whey protein that doesn’t included soy. I checked several sources, including those provided by my vegan and vegetarian friends and my vegan, vegetarian and raw foodist Twitter followers, and Sun Warrior...

Another quick post to share the recipe for one of the green juices (one of my faves) I made for breakfast last week (and again this morning) and to update my raw food and juice cleanse progress. This is another one that sort of fell through the cracks along with the raw recipes from last week that I didn’t write down, but since it’s pretty simple and straightforward, I feel pretty confident that I didn’t forget anything....
