Success!


Tonight was a huge success. We had 14 guests in total, plus my little 4 month old in the background. I couldn't have asked for a better evening or group of people to share my first experience with. Everyone was amazed at the ease of preparation accompanied with the delicious flavors. Who would have thought avocados and chocolate would taste so great together? Or that you didn't have to worry about counting calories or fat grams? How about taking away fears of preparing kale? This is what it's about....informing and helping people discover the wonderful gifts we have from the earth itself and how it can benefit out bodies for the better just in it's raw form. Each class will get better and better as I learn this new way of teaching, but I have to say, for the first time around, it was pretty great! One thing I wish I would've done was take a picture of EVERYONE who attended, but I only thought of this idea towards the end. Fortunately, there were still four lovely ladies to participate in a photo shoot!
I will post recipes for everything I demonstrated tonight!

  1. I've got a few friends who eat RAW and they swear by it. Me?...I guess I'm just waiting to come across the "just right recipe" to convince me. That, and, I'm just not ready to give up my carnivorous lifestyle. ;-)

    Can't wait to see your recipes and maybe try one or two.

  2. You don't have to give up your carnivorous lifestyle to eat raw! It's baby steps. That's why I really recommend the book by Natalia Rose called "The RAW Food Detox Diet" book. She is a certified clinical nutritionist who has worked with so many people to help them attain great health. There's are 5 levels and you start where you're at. I ended up giving meat up as I did it only because I realized how much better I felt without it. When I was pregnant, I couldn't live without meat, but now I gone back to just fish. Take it in stride. Start with a smoothie every morning and try one raw recipe a week.
