Raw chocolate smoothie

This is one of those take your cake and eat it type of drink. It’s so enjoyable and yet it’s so good for you.
Inspired by The Sunny Raw Kitchen’s Super Choconana Shake, here is my take on it…
In a blender:
1 cup walnut/pumpkin seed milk
2 bananas
1 tbs raw cacao powder
1 tbs cocoa powder
1 tsp maca powder
Dash [...]

It’s going to be spring bento

At long last — a bento post!
I didn’t feel like making raw bentos, or any bentos at all, because the weather was just so frigid. The thought of eating cold food outside the comfort of my toasty apartment was just not appealing. One of the ways that I keep raw in winter, especially after [...]

Raw carrot tang soup

I was stuck in a raw soup rut — I kept whipping up my favourite cucumber curry dill soup and couldn’t be bothered to make different ones. But soon I found that I got tired of the same taste and consumed fewer greens because of this.
For me, two large green smoothies (be it in [...]

Thai coconut noodle soup

Instead of looking for new recipes for inspiration, I actually look backwards sometimes to re-create what I loved in the past.
Last year, I stumbled upon Jonsi & Alex’s website, a pair of raw foodies in Iceland (if they can do it in such a cold climate, so could we!) and I tried almost all their [...]

Nature’s fast food

What is mono-eating? It’s just noshing on one fruit or nut or vegetable at a time. From this blog, a pedestrian visitor may think I spend a lot of time planning and making food, especially when they see this, this, and this.
To a certain extent, yes I do that, but I think it’s the same [...]

Mushroom sauce with zucchini pasta

I get cravings for creamy mushroom flavours once in a awhile and this mushroomy recipe from The Renegade Health Show is the bomb. I didn’t have all the ingredients so here is my version:
In a high-speed blender:
¼ cup sunflower seeds, soaked
½ stalk celery
6 pieces of shiitake mushrooms
1 tbs olive oil
1 clove garlic
1 tsp apple [...]

What does a raw foodie bring to a house party?

It hits me time and time again that the way I eat is very unusual and I am at a stage where I would like to keep it more to myself. I have raw food at home but I am hesitant to bring it out for other people to eat.
Sometimes the food looks great when [...]

Cookies & milk

When it gets cold or I’m feeling a bit down, I like having some raw nut/seed milk with raw chocolate cookies.

This is a hazelnut milk with a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg that oozes comfort.

I love the taste of dried cherries with chocolate but I really wanted the cookies to have a fudgey simple chocolate [...]

A durian feast

This is a raw foodie’s dream come true:

DURIANS!
This must be the one single fruit in the world that is so creamy, filling, and tasty. Being from Singapore, I chuckle when I read about raw foodists in America cracking open USD60 durians.

Yup, it’s so cheap in the Little Red Dot. SGD20 = USD15. And one [...]

My favourite chia seed pudding

One of the staples in my diet is chia seed pudding. I saw it on raw blogs but never felt the urge to try it because it looked weird and it wasn’t available in the shops here. I classified it as “nice to have but I don’t need it”.
I started buying products from The [...]
