Coconut Curry Nori Rolls (Raw Vegan)

Peace! Here's a new recipe from earlier today...

Ingredients:

3 raw nori sheets
2 handfuls spinach
1 handful fresh basil
1/4 small onion
1 small tomato
1 lemon
1 cup cashews
1-2 tablespoons olive oil (or coconut, flax, etc.)
1-2 tablespoons shredded coconut
1 tablespoon (or more to taste) curry powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
sea salt (optional)
black pepper (optional)


Preparation:

1) Chop up the spinach, basil, tomato, & onion into small pieces & set aside.

2) Grind up the cashews into a powder. Combine in a small mixing bowl with olive oil, curry powder, paprika, sea salt (optional), black pepper (optional) & the juice of one lemon. Mash it up until it forms a nice buttery paste.

3) Spread the paste on the bottom 1/4 of the nori rolls & top with spinach, basil, tomato, onion, & shredded coconut as pictured.

4) Roll it up! Use a little bit of water on the end of the nori sheet to make it stick together.

5) Chop it up into bite sized pieces & start feasting.

OPTIONAL: Brush the top of the nori rolls with water & throw some sesame seeds and/or shredded coconut on the top.

ENJOY!


*Feeds 2 (or one hungry person).

**The most important part of this recipe is the curry powder. Make sure you use a kind that you enjoy as different brands vary in flavor. Simply Organic makes a great one & that's what I used for these.

***If you don't have cashews - use sunflower seeds.

Raw Vegan "Pasta" Alfredo

Made this one two days in a row & it's certified delicious! Give it a try...


Ingredients

2-4 zucchini
1 handful fresh basil
1 handful spinach
1-2 handfuls arugula
1-2 tomatoes
1-4 garlic cloves
1 cup almonds (soaked 8-10 hours if possible)
1 cup nutritional yeast
1 - 1.5 cups water (start small)
Sea salt & black pepper (to taste)

Preparation

In a blender combine almonds, nutritional yeast, garlic, basil, spinach, sea salt, black pepper, and water. Blend into a nice creamy sauce adding more water if necessary. Then make pasta with the zucchini by a) shredding it, b) using a peeler to make linguini-type "noodles," or c) using a spiralizer.

Pour the sauce over the "noodles" & add the tomato slices on top. Spread some arugula or whatever you have in your kitchen around the edges & enjoy! Tweak the recipe to suit your taste - there are no rules!

Green Juice: Lemon Ginger Blast

Peace! Hope everybody is well. I fell off the grid for a while, but am back with a slamming new green juice recipe. It's a pretty popular one, so you may already know, but if not, I highly recommend drinking this every morning. It will get you zooming & quickly replace your coffee/tea/breakfast.

The taste is sweet & spicy & according to Lou Corona the effects are anti-inflammatory, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, & anti-everything else you don't want in your body.

Bottom line: This juice will wake you up!


Lemon Ginger Blast

1 bunch Arugula (or spinach)
1/2 bunch Parsley
1/2 bunch Cilantro
1 Cucumber
1 Lemon
1 Carrot
2 Apples
1-3 inch piece of Ginger
1/4 Habanero Pepper (adjust to taste - try just a small piece your first time)

• Play around with the amounts & ingredients until you find what works best for you. Making juice is fun!
