What's For Breakfast?

Fruit & Veggie Bowl
kiwi
orange
red bell pepper
orange bell pepper
celery
spearmint
dulse granules
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Most days I begin my morning routine by drinking water and following it with a Green Smoothie or fruit bowl.
Mid morning I will have more fruit with nuts (walnuts or brazil nuts) and/or a green juice

Fruit in the morning keeps our bodies flushing out the toxins from the normal detox that goes on during the night time hours.


What's on Your Table?

Most days I like to keep fruit and veggies on our table for in between snacks.  This will help you and your family from eating unhealthy snacks.

Sometimes I make a Cashew Cream for dipping or pouring over fruit.

Cashew Cream
1 c. raw cashews (soaked for 1-2 hrs. & drained to soften)
3/4 c. or more cold water (begin with lesser and add as needed)
1 1/2 T. raw honey or agave
1/4 t. vanilla extract

Place all ingredients in a high speed blender and pulse until incorporated and then blend until smooth.  You can adjust liquids to get desired consistency.

option: you can remove vanilla & honey and add in savory spices like dill or chives and garlic for a ranch dip

CSA Share week 4

  
CSA Share #4
I am late in posting this one.  I actually got these items last Wednesday.  Oh my, how time does fly!
We will be getting another portion tomorrow.
Pictured from bottom left going clockwise:
garlic scapes, green/spring onions, sugar snap peas,
kohlrabi, strawberries, bib lettuce, green ice lettuce, bag of mixed salad greens, asparagus, parsley and basil
This week we ate up the greens pretty quickly, so I supplemented with our own garden greens~kale, romaine, chinese cabbage, arugala and cilantro
Since we are three vegans and an aspiring vegetarian our veggies go quickly around here.  I used our fresh basil in Greek Salad's, the parsley went into some green juice I made..snap peas are finger foods and chopped up in salad, the kohlarbi is in the Pea Salad below...the only items left are a few green onions, some snap peas and the asparagus.


Pea & Kohlarbi Salad
1 bag of fresh or frozen peas
1-2 green onions
mini sweet peppers
Kohlrabi
cumin to taste
black pepper
lemon juice
olive oil

Breakfast Fruit Salad
