My Name is Melissa and I live in beautiful Nauvoo, IL. This is a blog to record my journey on raw food. I will share with you my first 30 days on raw food, some of my favorite recipes, and some very helpful websites. I am sharing because so many people have asked. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me at ctradams@juno.com

Garlic, Ginger Dressing
1 1/2 c. Cold Pressed Olive Oil
1/3 c. Garlic Bulbs
2 Tbs. Ginger (about a 1-2 in. section depending on thickness)
3 Tbs. Nama Shoyu
1/2 c. Fresh squezed lemon juice

Blend all ingredients in a Vita-Mix or high power blender until smooth. This dressing is VERY yummy!

Day 10 July 8, 2008

HAPPY BIRTHDAY GABRIEL!! For Gabriel's b-day breakfast I put some fresh strawberries & a little agave in some almond milk & blended it. Yummy raw strawberry milk. Almost everyone loved it.
Once again, I didn't do perfect today, but I'm ok with that. I have to realize going to 100% will take time. Most days I'm between 90-95%.
I love seeing live things in my kitchen. I have sprouts, wheat grass, & soaked raw nuts. It feels like a "raw" living kitchen. It just has a drifferent feel. My fruits & veggies are spilling over into my spare fridge. I am still in love w/this. Got up realy this morning & did my yoga. It felt so good. I also bought a bike today.
