Recipe: Sweet Pea Soup

Sweet Pea Soup






Trying out new recipes is fun! 

In the book "The art of raw living food" there is a recipe for a pear cake...we tried it and it tastes yummy! 

It's made with chopped pears, vanilla sauce (made with pine nuts), cinnamon and agave....it tastes delicious! 

And if you have a couple of spoons of leftovers (well, impossible, I tell you) you can add them to any smoothie and it will make it rich and creamy, more yummy! No photo… we ate it too quickly. :)


We also made a Sweet Pea Soup. I tweaked a version I found on the internet and here is my own version :) with photo on top of the page:


Sweet Pea Soup


Serves 4 (if you use small bowls)

3 cups sweet peas, thawed (we actually warmed them up slightly)
1 avocado
2 cups cucumbers
2 cups celery (I used only one and it was overpowering so next time there will be none!)
1/4 cup fresh dill
1/4 cup cashews, ground (optional)
2 cloves of garlic (we used 1)
1 green onion
1 tbs lemon juice
1 tsp miso (we used Soy sauce)
Water until desired consistency is reached
Salt, to taste (we put no salt)

Blend until smooth.

Review: Tesco "free from" ginger cookies (with gluten-free oat flour) wheat, dairy and gluten free

Tesco "free from" ginger cookies  http://www.tesco.com/groceries/product/details/?id=268624669 Hello everyone! Winter is here and it's been snowing in Norfolk - as well as in the rest of the U.K.  This is the time when all the resolutions of eating only fresh, nutritious food, raw and healthy, disappear at the same speed that the outside temperature decreases. Two weeks ago I decided to go wheat free - just like that - or cold turkey, someone would rather say more idiomatically. Anyway, after reading the first 90 pages of The Wheat Belly recipe book by Dr. Davies, anybody with a brain will start wondering if wheat is such a healthy food after all. This is not to say that Dr. Davies is 100% correct in his assumption, but let's discuss this in another post - suffice to say that in the middle of January, when most people enjoy wheat-based dishes such as pasta, bread, pasties, cakes etc. I suddenly decided to see if I would...

How to become a Family Herbalist

I must say that this course has changed my life. My family and I have not been to the doctor since I completed it last year.  Today I found a great movie where two medical doctors prove Dr. Christopher right: animal products are the main cause of modern disease. Can I dispute with statistics… .? Fork over knives - vegan is best, really

Raw veggies dinner

Raw veggies dinner Yesterday we had a raw veggie dinner. I thought we were going to starve... but after chewing all the veggies I felt completely satisfied. Weird! All I did was cutting lots of different veggies and putting 2 in each plate, and then I allowed :) some Japanese sauces and raw mayonnaise, chili sauce etc to those who wish to change the taste of things. :) The bean sprouts were swimming  in soy sauce. I also used a can of green beans (French beans), cold, just turned upside down. (I know! Not living!)  It was very tasty! Perhaps if I can learn to make raw burgers and crackers I can add those too...so far we have plain monkey nuts with our almost-raw dinners. Bon appetit!
