Raw Experiment #1

A friend of mine is visiting and he eats a primarily raw diet. Inspired, I decided to make a raw meal for dinner one night.

One of the dishes was originally called "Mock Meat Loaf" but it truly could not be farther from meat-loaf-like so I renamed it "Raw Spring Roll".

The bowl of ingredients mixed together after they had been grated in my food processor.


On my fork...


The beets turned my hands red!


Recipe:
Spring Roll Salad


1 beet, grated
2 sweet potatoes, grated
2 red potatoes, grated and sprinkled with lemon juice
1 red onion, chopped
3 celery stalks, with leaves, chopped
1 pound raw peanuts, ground in the food processor

Put each item in a food processor indivdually. When each item is processed, place in a large bowl. Mix together and refrigerate overnight.

Wow. Look at your hand! As red as your fingernails. Seems like 'twas an interesting experiment, Jenny! i'm not a big fan of beets, mostly because i have some odd childhood memories of weird beet borscht that was funky tasting...

"Just beet it!"

Raw is the new vegan. I just can't wait for the Earth Crisis equivalent.

Raw Tofu is the new Vegan. If you deep fry the raw tofu.
