My friend Shayla is in town.
 

She catered a raw food party for 30 people in NYC for 7 grand. Wow, the stuff she made, the things she ordered. She has business on her mind and wants to do raw food catering here in Miami. With me, as partner.. hmmm Do I have any other choice. raw food is it. For me.

Today she made me a salad with mangoes, spinach, pumpkin seeds, avos etc.. a dressing too..

beautiful.. I made coconut mylk.

I also had a salad bar salad at Wild Oats on South Beach.

My spirooli came in today which means I will make something fancy tommorow. Maybe something from The Living cuisine menu.
A Pad thai or RAW Butternut Squash Spaghetti with raw Puttanesca sauce.... something like.

She is beauitful girl, Shayla, all tanned from hanging on the beach

This morning I woke up and had Coconut Mylk.
My fridge..

I went to walk by the water at Bayside with Shayla and I had a tall glass of freshly squeezed SUGAR CANE JUICE 4 dollars..

I went shopping with Shayla and got heart shaped cookie cutters, chopsticks, a bamboo cutting board and groceries.

Today I made this:  " this dish looks like it could be served at NOBU"
I looked on the interent for a recipe and found this

Sweet and Sour Noodles

by Cecilia Benjumea

Cucumber noodles make this dish fabulous!

“Noodle” Salad

1 large, firm English cucumber, processed into noodles using a Veggie
Spiralizer or a Spirooli

1 large mango, julienned (Manila mangos work best)

1 large bell pepper, julienned

1/2 bunch cilantro, finely chopped

1/2 cup mung bean sprouts

1/2 cup pea sprouts

4 kale leaves, thinly sliced

1 handful snow peas (optional)

Sweet ‘n Sour Sauce

2 large mangos, diced

1 large bell peppers

A pinch of cayenne (optional)

First, make the sauce by placing diced mangos then bell peppers in a blender. Add a pinch of cayenne, if desired, then blend until smooth. Next, drain the cucumber noodles in a strainer then arrange them on a plate. Add a layer of sweet ‘n sour sauce. Next, add the julienned mangos and bell peppers. Cover all with another layer of sauce. Add the sprouts and kale then cover with another layer of sauce. Finally, garnish with the chopped cilantro and eat with chopsticks or a wooden fork.

( I just got regualr alfalfa sprouts, omitted the kale and used ground up mustard instead of cayenne)



I also tried out half a Raw Carrot cake recipe minus the frosting..just to see if I liked the recipe

I replaced the rolled oats ( not raw) ground up with coconut flour..

it was 2 c each of flour, pulp from carrots juiced,dates finely chopped and sopme vanilla , honey , salt and 1 c chopped nuts

I then took leftover carrot pulp, chopped nuts, dates, pumkin seed etc with seasonings and Food processed into heart shapes..

My beauitful horse took us to a cuban fruit juice place where I got Mamey juice 1/2 gallon squeezed/made fresh..really creamy red juice..comfort food..

I also split three ways an EGG fruit...interesting, I liked it, every body else spit their's out..they said it tasted like an egg.

We went to a chinese place, LUCKY"S and got a durian. It is in the fridge for tommorow.. and a ton of greens like baby bok choy and mustard greens, daikon radish to spirooli, a green squash.. I wanted to get Lotus root but the guy told me you had to cook it.

ok, I went to Publix to buy a brita fliter and I weighed myself. 110.
I wish I was 95 , oh well.

today was carrot cake day.

Here is a photo of Coconut Mylk I made

Evil unicorn made a smoothie out of bluberries, bee pollen, hemp nut butter.. and thai coconut pulp blended with dates and raw cashews etc..


Here is the raw carrot cake before we take it out of the collapsable pan..(it has a latch and when it sets we pull it off.. ) The cake has three layers and comes with a sauce.. The recipe, not decorations, are from Juliano's raw book.. I will post it here later.

Here is the Carrot cake stuff itself sitting atop a crust then covered in frosting made from Trult raw cashews and agave,orange juice

for the leftovers I made a mini cake here..

Later evil unicorn made a salad.

We talked about how wonderful raw food is and how we wish we could make it all day..
PS I also baked two cooked Carrot cake per order.. hey.. I cannot even taste it but those recipes come out the same so I am ok..

Later my mom showed up so I made her this.. it is pesto daikon noodles I spiroolied

She wants to hire us to make dinner for her and her friends every night.

I am now drinking Ginger/Starfruit/peeled orange I put in the blender and strained

Everything is perfect I am so happy. My Beautiful Horse is at the superbowl in Jacksonville.

For Evil unicorn's dinner she made Guacamango with strawberries. She sure is over the top.
