Mixed fresh fruit – kiwi, grapes, pears, grapefruit, orange, etc.
Muesli – raw oats, banana, and raisins in almond milk
Lunch
Lettuce leaves with hummus spread on them, and on top add various veggies like alfalfa sprouts, yellow beans, zucchini, celery, and cherry tomatos.
After lunch I overdosed on sweets – 8 Trader Joe’s vegan trail mix cookies, dried mango, and dried banana. I got really sleepy afterwards. Another sugar crash like with the raw goji cheesecake?
Today was a busy day and I didn’t get any footage. Sorry! I’m sleepy, so here’s a quick re-cap of today.
Breakfast
Stir-fried pumpkin & quinoa
1 glass orange juice
Raw apple cobbler (just a few bites!)
Snack
Variety of fresh organic fruit
Lunch
Stir fried veggies & tempeh
Snack
Homemade raw trail mix
Dinner
Vegan sprouted “burger” patty w/ whole wheat bun & veggies
Finished off the apple cobbler!
1 glass of chardonnay
Not so raw today. Maybe that’s contributing to why I’m a bit sleepy.
Note that all drinks not mentioned are filtered water.
Today Jeem (my “better half”) busted out a mean raw apple cobbler! It was quite convincing, except that it wasn’t crunchy. (Maybe if we had a dehydrator?) Anyways, she totally pulled the recipe out of thin air and scored a home run. Hopefully I’ll get a chance to video its creation & post a recipe.
The insides of the rolls are lined with raw hummus. Adds some flavor and keeps it from being too dry.
I eat the fruit about an hour after starting work. The delay gives my stomach a chance to empty — allegedly it’s best to eat fruit on an empty stomach. Plus, I like to try to get most of my calories in the morning so I can burn them off throughout the day. Grapefruit is one of my favorites.
Lunch
Lunch out with a colleague from work. Had a garden burger — definitely not raw. Building & maintaining work relationships in this way is a challenge for raw foodies. Well, for me at least.
Dinner
Back on the bandwagon!
I think I forgot to mention that the sauce on top is avacado and lemon juice, blended.
Dessert was a nice and welcome surprise from my wife! YUM!
