Grape Watermelon Mint Romain Lettuce Juice

I love juice. I use to get most of my sugar intake form Juice filled with corn syrup and junk. These days I'm trying to juice at least 3 times a week adding leafy greens to my favorite fruits. Friday i juiced the last of the fruit in the fridge with whatever greens left from my garden salad.

Tossed Salad with Yam & Carrot Cole Slaw

I'm trying to make an effort to eat greens from our garden at least once a week. The other day I made Carrot Yam Coleslaw with a mixed garden greens salad. Then took some old pizza dough sprinkled it with olive oil salt pepper and dill with a side of tahini for dippin.

Super mint
She called this true mint I called it super mint because these stems and leaves were so big and juicy green.





Washing
I picked a bit too much. So much I spent 45 min at the sink and still didn't wash or use it all.

Yam & Carrot Cole Slaw with Pumpkin flax seed granola , Apple sauce ,raisins , and Lemon Basil ?

I've had yam coleslaw a few times and always thought to myself i could make this at home. today i found 2 yams in my fridge and decided to give it a try. I just looked up some recipes online and pieced together my own version with what I had around the kitchen. I think the applesauce and granola made it too sweet to be as healthy as it could have been. But again it still tasted great.

Unbelievable story of government Violating the rights of vegetarians in Atlanta. Does anyone know what happen with this family if we let it happen to them it can happen to us. We have the right to feed our kids an organic, vegetarian and or vegan diet.

MJ's Carrot & Nutty Brownies.... In honor of the late Great Micheal Jackson who's death I learned of as the brownies were cooling.

Today I was craving some chocolate and even though the house is already about 90 degrees my greedy behind decided to bake some. I used the pulp from the carrots I juiced the other day and some crushed nuts to make my latest attempt at the perfect Vegan Brownie.

Before



Fresh out the Oven



This time I used applesauce & whole wheat flour. The applesauce gave them a gooey inside. I also tried to go easy on the sugar and didn't use any soy milk at all. As a result the chocolate is sharp and more intense then usual.

Apple Carrot Banana Smoothie

I've been making smoothies with soy, nuts and freshly juiced fruits & veggies for the past 2 months to have after my workout. Today I juiced some carrots and apples and threw them into a smoothie with some mixed nuts and a packet of powered greens (we're out of soy milk) . It tasted great but it was a bit of a challenge when the blender broke before I could combine everything. I ended up having to use a hand mixer to blend the chopped nuts and bananas together.

I usually try to save the pulp from the juicing to add into meals during the week



Maybe I'll add this carrot to some pasta later this week.
