PM’s Mexican Lettuce Wraps
(svenska nedan) I’ve been on the road quite a bit lately, and it’s hard to make food when you’re not in your own kitchen, right? That’s why I love this recipe for Mexican Lettuce Wraps by Philip McCluskey. It’s a great, healthy, raw take on tacos and would be easy to make wherever you are....
Smokey Jicamasalad with Kale & Corn
(svenska nedan) Since I discovered it a few years back, I’ve really learned to love jicama, a Mexican root vegetable with a mild, slightly sweet flavor and satisfying crunch. It’s best eaten raw and perfect for slicing or grating into a refreshing summer salad. It works really well with chili powder or, better yet, smoked...
Red, White & Blue
(se nedan för svenska) Let’s face it, most holidays revolve around eating crap. Why does it have to be that way? You don’t have to eat burgers and BBQ steak just because it’s Independence Day. Make your own decisions, stick to eating what feels right for you and let everyone else comment all they want....
Sweet Summer Snack
(se nedan för svenska) It’s getting really hot here in Ojai, and in the middle of those sweltering summer days, don’t we all just crave a sweet frozen treat? I do, at least, and frozen berries are my favorite thing. They’re a great alternative to ice cream (which has a lot of unnecessary sugar and...
Minty Greens
(Se nedan för svenska) So I’m in Sweden again and I always like discovering new products in the grocery store.

Many of you asked for my juice fast...
The Secret to Making Great Guacamole
(Se nedan för Svenska) I’ve been asked a few times lately what my secret to make such good guacamole is, and I’m not quite sure, but I have a pretty good idea. First off, you need to make sure you start with ripe Organic avocados, otherwise your guac is never going to make it from...
Cauliflower Couscous
(See below for English) Matberedaren är min nya bästa vän i köket — allt blir så mycket lättare att äta om man hackar upp det. Blomkålscousous är en enkel raw food-variant på den klassiska couscousen, vet inte om det riktigt smakar liknande men det ser väldigt mycket ut som couscous. Så är det väl med...

Raw Cilantro Pesto
(svenska nedan) I don’t know about you but something that I always get annoyed with myself about is when I buy fresh herbs at the farmer’s market and don’t use them up before they go bad. This happens particularly often with cilantro, but this week I decided that none of it would be allowed to...
Greensicle Smoothie
(See below for English) Hittade det här receptet på Tasting Table häromdagen. Måste provas så fort jag har kokosvatten hemma, låter ju hur gott som helst!
