GYG Bowls


We recently discovered Kris Carr and her books and website Crazy Sexy Life.   Her journey with food is fascinating!  I hope you will read more about her and the amazing power of food in her life!
We've adapted the following recipe to throw in our Grab Your Green (GYG) bowl (compliments of Dawn's artistic side.)  Kris calls them Buddha Bowls and they start with a grain such as quinoa or millet.  You add all your leftover RAW veggies for a meal packed with nutrients!  Using avocado makes it creamy!  

Note:  Pomegranates and Blueberries were dessert :)
Quiona or Millet (prepared according to the package)
Add all your favorite veggies!  The combinations are endless!  Toss and Enjoy!  Here are a few we love!
-broccoli or cauliflower (cut in tiny florets)
-finely chopped greens (kale, romaine, arugula, spinach, etc)
-onion or scallions
-grated carrot, zucchini, squash, beets
-diced celery, cherry tomatoes
-1 – 2 cloves fresh garlic
-ground flax and/or chia seeds
-avocados 
-lemon juice 
-sea salt or Braggs Amino Liquid
-dash of cayenne

Good for You Valentine's Day Dessert

Want to make a gorgeous dessert for your family this Valentine's Day that doesn't even require turning on the stove?  It's also full of ingredients that are so good for your body!  

Because we like to give credit where credit is due, check out this link for the recipe.

Raw Chocolate Tart

Note:  I used one large tart pan for our dessert.  I also used vanilla unsweetened almond milk.

My two girls cut up the strawberries to put on top.  Just so you know, it has a darker chocolate flavor, but my sweetheart loved every bite!  

Here are a few pictures of the one we made today!




Happy <3 Day to all of you!
