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



My Favorite Raw Salad Dressing
Garlic, Ginger Dressing

1/3 c. Garlic Bulbs
2 Tbs. Ginger (about a 1-2 in. section depending on thickness)

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

Day 13 July 11, 2008

It has been a very amazing and confusing day all at once. My raw Larabars came today. Much yummier the the Revalution Bars. It has 3 flavors; lemon, cherry, apple. Apple & Lemon are my favorite. Cherry is good though.

GOOD NOTE: I walked into KFC/Long John Silver's w/Tom w/the full intention that I would "cheat" and have a little cooked food. When I walked in, the smell and look of the food made me so sick that the temptation fled! I coudln't believe, emtionally, how good that felt!

BAD NOTE: I ate 2 small pieces of chocolate :-(. That wasn't as bad as the sliver of cheese pizza! YUCK! I won't do THAT again. I had a tummy ache for 2 hours. I took some enzymes to help digest it . From now on I WILL listne to my body. I am worth it!
