Fresh Almond Butter!
Delight your taste buds with creamy almond butter made with organic raw almonds, a touch of Himalayan salt, and a little oil. It's lovely to serve with some sliced apples or celery to nourish ourselves, or friends and family.
Sprouted Barley Tabouli
We've been making sprouted barley tabouli which has a wonderful, chewy texture (but isn't hard to chew), and a rich, hearty flavor. Fresh tomatoes, parsley, green onions, olive oil and lemon taste so good with the barley.
Delicata Squash with Kale, Tomatoes, and Zucchini
This week I responded to a craving that had gone on for days, for delicata squash. It was served with warmed kale, tomatoes, and zucchini, seasoned with amazing tastes from West Indies Rub and Grilling Herbs, both from Mountain Rose Herbs. The end result was delicious, and my body felt nourished, sated, warm, and happy.
Grape, Nectarine, and Plum Smoothie
Fall is already here and it seems all too soon after another unusually short summer in northwestern Washington. Yet, there are still some delectable fruits in the stores, such as grapes, nectarines, and plums, to name a few.
Nectarine-Peach Pudding
Peaches and nectarines are some of summer's great pleasures, and we've been blessed to have a wonderful crop this year. This luscious pudding can be frozen for 2+ hours, so that an icy crust forms on the top for a real cool down on blistering hot days. Or, enjoy the pudding at room temperature for a delicious, tangy-sweet snack or dessert, made in minutes.
Papaya-Fig Salad
These sweet fruits make a delicious complement to any salad. The day we ate this, I used lettuce, celery, and a little bit of green and red cabbage. The sweetness of the fruit, and the salty crunchiness of the celery, creates a lovely balance to the bitterness in the greens and stronger flavors of cabbage.
Pineapple-Parsley-Citrus Juice
The chill of November hasn't dampened our love of fresh, raw juice. Recipes are being tested, and this is one of our new favorites. The colors of the pineapple, lemon, lime, apples, kale, and parsley, provide visual stimulation during preparation, and the aromas are enticing as I anticipate a delicious, healthy drink.
Wonderful Watermelon Juice
This has got to be one of the simplest, most delightful, sweet beverages on the planet! It's watermelon juice made from just watermelon. And it's not even juiced, but blended, so it comes out thick and luscious.
Our lives,
so seemingly small,
ripple out
to the whole universe
as tiny whispers
like the sounds
of butterfly wings,
and the clear voice
of the living truth.
