This is not my own recipe — though I wish it was. I nicked this from Kirsten’s Raw blog and I loved it. I’ve always been a fan of cherries and chocolate but never thought it would be possible in a smoothie. I didn’t freeze my fruit like what Kirsten did but I chucked some [...]
It seems like a lot of effort to buy produce to keep in my hotel room so I could have a blended raw breakfast, but it feels worth it. I may go cooked vegetarian for lunch and dinner, depending on where we stop and what’s available, so my raw brekkie keeps my insides whirring. I [...]

Recipe: Nut/seed milk (I like to use pecans and pumpkin seeds but you can choose any mix you want or stick to one seed/nut) Sweetener; 3 dates and/or a handful raisins (sometimes I use 4 dried papaya sticks) [...]

I usually prefer simple green smoothies but once in a while I love a fancy one. Adapted from We Like It Raw, this is Pure Food & Wine top chef Sarma Melngailis‘ gorgeous cilantro green smoothie: 1/2 ruby grapefruit 4 pieces of frozen pineapple 1 cucumber 1 bunch cilantro 1 bunch spinach (this is not [...]
