First time with a durian.
What an oddity. I have never had such a sensory overload eating a piece of fruit in my life. Hard, spiky, soft, creamy, dense, fibrous, wet, dry and sorry to […]
Raw Vegan Satay Noodle
I made this last night. Once again the raw corn took the meal to exciting new places. Just HOW many missed raw corn opportunities have I had in my life? […]
Quick mushroom and avo salad
Heres my quick fix for any time of the day! So delicious. So quick. It’s been our go-to for each last minute “what to make for dinner” moment. Spruce up […]
Raw Vegan Corn and Coriander (cilantro) Chowder
Raw Vegan Corn and Coriander (cilantro) Chowder (soup) YUM! This has to be my favourite raw vegan meal that I’ve attempted so far…AND easy easy easy! (serves two) 2 organic […]
Shiny, happy places: my addiction to health food stores.
I am addicted to organic/health food stores. For me, there is something very evocative about standing in a shop set up like an enormous larder, stocked floor to ceiling of […]
Raw Vegan Pea and Mint Soup
Raw Vegan Pea and Mint Soup 4 handfuls of fresh peas, shelled handful of spinach handful mint 1 tsp. agave/other liquid sugar equiv. 1 tsp. Himalayan salt 1 tbs. unhulled […]
Raw food- SOUL good!
There is now officially nothing that I miss from my old diet. Or from myself for that matter. I am no longer even mildly tempted to eat meat, dairy or […]
Taste-As-You-Go… Foolproof desserts!
I have made very, very few edible desserts in my life. One notable success however was my first ever attempt at (non-raw) macarons last year. It was during a macaron-crazed […]
Don’t soak your nuts…!
I didn’t think I’d ever indulge in a plate of cheesy nachos again. RAW vegan nachos?? Really? You’d be surprised. I didn’t expect them to live up to any memory […]
Raw vegan for a family of meat eaters…
We recently moved into a new house and the backyard was a mess so I conned my Dad into coming to visit and bringing his tools and technical know-how to […]
Yong Green Food
Ah Yongs! If you are not from Melbourne you probably have no idea about this little restaurant on the north end of Brunswick Street, Fitzroy run by two Korean sisters. […]
Getting back on the wagon
So… this blog was intended to keep us on track and over the past few days we’ve been a bit slack with writing AND the raw veganism… neither of us […]
Dates, dates, glorious dates!
Over the past few months Dee and I have been experimenting with raw food, slowly discovering the unique science behind different natural ingredients. We’ve worked our way through all of […]
Day Seven. Detox over!
We have returned from the Summer of Soul music festival which for me was possibly the most enjoyable dance experience at any festival. If I have no alcohol, I don’t […]
Day Five. Still alive.
It’s been a funny past two days. Jess has totally entered the ‘oh-my-God-im-so-cleansed-and-happy’ phase of the detox (hear her: eggplants are sexy! Dehydrating is fun!), but probably as my own body […]
Day Three. Toxic tissue.
Another day another ginger water followed by a green juice but this time it was much more tasty. Not sure if we’re getting used to the “flavour” (if you can […]
Day Two. Something to chew on.
Detox tip #1: There is no need to have an evening of excess the night before you begin your detox just to prove a point that you can, it will […]
Detox Day One. No more Baileys.
New Years Eve 2012. We thought it was a great idea to preface the evening with a visit to a local Mexican restaurant for a gigantic, completely non-vegetarian, cheese and […]
