Paella!


OK, after Cam & Mam got back from Spain last April, we had a hankering to make Paella. This version is so delicious! Remember to buy olives imported from Spain, ham (imported from Spain, if you can). We added shrimp, artichoke hearts (bottled), “azafrán” (saffron), frozen peas, fresh zucchini, olive oil, and rice. We may have added some special seasoning, we don’t remember... (basil?) But, as long as you have the big four: big chunky green olives from Spain, ham, and shrimp, and saffron, it’s going to be special!

Raw Pasta


This is basically Raw Pasta, which means the "noodles" are zucchini and the topping is all kinds of yummy raw vegetables!



Raw Brownies with Raspberries












These are the best treats ever. I recommend them highly!

I make so many different kinds of these, this is just one version:

1 cup pecans
3/4 cup pine nuts
1/2 c raisins or dates (cut-up)
1/2 c dried, unsweetened coconut

Process in food-processor until finely chopped, then add:

3 T raw almond butter
1 T raw carob powder
1 T agave

Top with your favorite fruit art!

You can make the S'mores over a fire or in a microwave. After the chocolate and marshmallows are melted add a couple of slices of strawberries! These Strawberry S'mores are from heaven, I promise!!! Enjoy! :)
