Raw Pizza Crust

1 cup sunflower seeds, soaked overnight
1/2 cup oat groats, soaked overnight
1 medium carrot
1 stalk celery
2 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons minced red onion
3/4 teaspoon sea salt
fresh cracked black pepper
3/4 cup flax meal
1 1/3 cup water
1/4 cup sesame seeds
1/3 cup whole flax seed

Process oat groats in the food processor until nearly smooth.  Add sunflower seeds and process until crumbled.  Transfer the mixture to a large mixing bowl.  Put carrot, celery, garlic, onion, salt & pepper in the food processor and process until well minced then transfer to the mixing bowl.  Stir in whole flax, and sesame seeds.  Once the mixture in well combined add flax meal and water and quickly incorporate well.  Make two crusts by spreading half the batter onto two dehydrator trays lined with teflex sheets.  Dehydrate at 110 for 3 hours or until dry enough to flip and remove teflex. Dehydrate 4 hours more or until done to your liking.  Top with toppings, warm in the dehydrator and serve.

The two week diet is a cleanse that focuses on enzymes and alkalization for loosing weight and gaining energy, natural byproducts of “going raw”.  It has a full video tutorials available for each and every day, making it easy to follow.  After completing 14 days on the raw diet, not only will you guys have Rocking Bodies, but you will also have the know-how to make basic raw meals.  You will know how to make pates, cheese and milks from nuts and seeds.  You will be able to make mouth watering desserts with no processed sugars, dairy, gluten, wheat or soy.  You will master salads and soups that are quick, easy and nutrient dense. You will replace processed pasta with unbelievably simple veggie noodles.  And, you will have the skinny on all my favorite veggie juices and smoothies that make it too easy to consume ample fresh greens everyday.  I am thrilled to share this project with you.  The release date is March 15th, so mark your calendars.

Feeling hot in a Rocking Body is just the beginning.  The energy, the unbelievable hum of your body operating at it’s peak efficiency is a joy this book will introduce you to.  It takes more than diet alone to reach the crescendo of wellness that I speak of here. It takes a balanced fitness program as well.  For many, Rocking Body Raw Foods will be the gateway drug to the natural “raw foods” high that is possible on whole foods and proper exercise.  Get ready to RAWk.

GRAPEFRUIT SLUSHY

1 large pink grapefruit, juiced
2 tangerines or oranges, juiced

1 cup water
agave to taste

My gorgeous, generous, perfect man got me an early birthday gift. It’s a Kodak ZI8 digital video camera. It is as user friendly as the Flip but it also has an audio input jack. That means I can get great audio even on the short videos I’ve been wanting to make for the blog. Check it out. In this video I make a delicious Walnut Pesto Paté. Since walnuts are not my family’s favorite nut (that would be Drew- oxxo), this is one way I can include these little health gems in our diet.

What is your favorite walnut recipe?

Ginger Lime Colada
meat from one young coconut
juice of two limes (or one big juicy lime)
1-2″ piece of ginger, peeled
one green apple, keep the peel on, remove the core
1-2 cups water
1-2 cups ice
agave nectar to taste

Before you juice the lime grab a cute little swirl of rind as a garnish. Combine 1 cup ice and one cup water with coconut, lime juice, and the apple in the Vita-Mix.  Whip it up to a creamy froth and give it a taste.  Depending on the sweetness of the apple it may need to be lightly sweetened with agave.  If it’s a bit strong for your taste add more ice and a little more water.  Whip it again and serve immediately.

You are worth it.

Raw Cacao Crispies

Cacao Crispies
1 cup organic oat groats (soaked overnight, drained & rinsed)
2 tablespoon raw cacao powder
1 tablespoon maple, or raw honey

In a mixing bowl combine maple or honey with cacao powder.  Toss freshly rinsed oat groats in the mixture.  Transfer to an Excaliber dehydrator sheet with a Teflex liner.  Dehydrate two hours, flip & dehydrate until crispy.  Store in an airtight container.  This makes a small batch which is great to test the flavor to see if you enjoy them.  If they are a hit in your house, you can make much larger batches because the store well.  Be sure to use a container with a strong seal to keep the air out.
