"RAW" Taco Salad

I found this yummy recipe here

http://www.fitmomsfitkidsclub.com/2010/08/daddy-does-it-raw-week-3-menu/


I am always looking for new yummy recipes and when I found this one I just had to try it out!  This was a hit with the family!  We all enjoyed it.  The kids liked the nut(meat) mixture scooped into lettuce leaves drizzled with the cashew cream.  I made up a huge garden salad and added the nut(meat) mixture to the top, also drizzled with cashew cream.  It was so filling and yummy!  Another "RAW" recipe our family will make again and again!

Taco Mixture - Process 1 cup of sunflower seeds (soaked for 1 hour), 1/2 cup of cashews, 1 clove of garlic, 2 tablespoons of onions, 2 tablespoons of cumin, 1 tablespoon of cajun seasoning, a dash of sea salt. 


Cashew Sour Cream 
In a food processor or high powered blender 1 cup cashews (soaked), 1 cup water, 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp onion powder.  Blend until the ingredients are a thick and smooth cream (add more water if needed) it should look like sour cream.

Stuffed Tomato for One a "Raw" Recipe

I am starting to add "raw" recipes to our meal plans!  This is a tasty easy recipe that only requires a food processor!  Perfect if you are making lunch for one.  Of course you can double/quadruple the recipe if making for more than one.  I did have more mix that didn't fit into the tomato, you can save for later or share with a friend...perhaps put it in to a lettuce leaf!


Stuffed Tomato for One


Ingredients

  • 1 tomato cut in half,
  • 1/4 cup of soaked sunflower seeds (soak 1 hr in water, then drain), 
  • 1/4 teaspoon of mustard powder, 
  • half a stalk celery, 
  • finger sized carrot, 
  • 1 green onion, 
  • 1 small clove of garlic, 
  • a squirt of lemon juice to taste, 
  • Optional - Add your favorite spices. (dill, cilantro, curry, paprika, etc).
Hallow out half of your tomato, throwing all tomato remains in food processor.
Process all ingredients.
Scoop mixture into tomato half.
Enjoy this very healthy lunch beside extra celery, and carrot sticks!
Yummy!

Just comment to let me know you linked up, so it will count in the contest!
