Birthday pressie bento

My raw food lifestyle and bento-making craziness is usually reserved for those online but it was very pleasing when a few offline friends got me this new bento as a birthday present. I like that it’s got a blue theme going on. ローフードのテーマはインタネットでいつもはなすけど、東京の友達は私にお弁当をくれった。青いろが好き。。。いいな。。。

Live stir-fry noodle bento

I had some leftover kelp noodles, so I marinated some shiitake mushrooms, red cabbage and onion for an hour before I packed everything into my bento box. I sliced up some cucumber strips to give it more bulk and re-used an old capers glass jar to hold a sesame miso ginger sauce. It was a [...]

Raw purple ice-cream

You’ll be surprised at the ingredients list as I intended this to be a pink ice-cream and not purple. My guess is when raspberries are oxidized, they turn purple. Fun. Raspberry coconut vanilla ice-cream (serves 2): 1 cup frozen raspberries 1/2 cup low fat coconut milk 1 tbs vanilla essence 1 cup cashews 1 tbs [...]

Tomato cups bento

I chopped up some cucumber and scooped out the “brains” of one tomato and drizzled some leftover jalapeno mayo. Absolutely yummy and got this idea from Jonsi & Alex’s raw cooking show. In the bottom layer, I threw in some flax crackers and filled a silicone cup with raw tartar sauce. Although the tomato cups [...]

Raw jalapeno mayo dip with veggie sticks

I was inspired by Rawmazing’s raw chipolte mayo recipe, but as you can see from the title, I used fresh jalapenos instead. This has become one of my absolute faves as I’ve got a passion for all things spicy like no other. This is one of my quickest meal ideas: veggie sticks with a delicious [...]

Almond milk miso soup

When I need an Asian fix, a simple raw soup like this can quell my cravings. You can’t taste the almond aroma so this is truly a savoury meal. As you can see, I love my kelp noodles. Recipe: Almond milk (blend ½ cup almonds with 1½ cups water; strain) 1½ cups 1 tbs white [...]
