International Raw Food Day

Celebrate International Raw Food Day ......July 11.....Already passed.............

This Friday, July 11, is International Raw Food Day! We're celebrating with one of our all-time favorite raw food recipes plus, this delicious raw chocolate number! Give some raw food recipes a go and feel the difference, see the difference and live the difference

Zucchini Pomodoro
 
Ingredients:
6 zucchinis
2 ½ cups of chopped fresh ripe tomatoes
12 sun-dried tomatoes, soaked in water to rehydrate, roughly chopped
½ cup cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil
3 cloves of garlic, peeled
3 fresh dates, pitted
2 tbsps fresh basil or parsley
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp unrefined sea salt

Special equipment:
A spiralizer or just a vegetable peeler
A blender or food processor

Method:
Spiralize the zucchini and place in a large serving bowl
Blend or process the remaining ingredients until smooth
Pour sauce over the zucchini ‘spaghetti’!

Special Note:
Sea Salt is our friend, containing more than 80 minerals, including calcium and iodine. The sodium in unrefined salt is necessary for brain function and for balancing our pH. However, getting sodium from table salt or sodium found in canned, preserved and highly processed foods is damaging as it lacks a complete array of minerals, having been stripped and chemically bleached.

Other Tip:
Use the sauce over wilted spinach and crumble feta and activated pine nuts over the top
