Dragon Fruit recipe!

Good morning!!

Another beautiful day today, I LOVE sunshine, it makes me so  happy! 

I’ve had a few questions re: Rawness haha…

Q – Are you still 100% Raw? 

A- I’d say I’m about 80% still.  Which I am pretty happy about.  My morning starts off with a big green smoothie (frozen strawberries, bananas, macca powder, spirilina, kale or spinach and a date for sweetness – and a new favorite – PARSLEY

Lunch has been a big snack plate with different salads, veggies and a few taco chips for fun!!

Dinner (last night) was a veggie burger with a lettuce bun, jam packed with guacamole, salad on the side with an energy ball for desert!

Q – We want recipes…   can you share?!

A – I would LOVE to share the recipes, but they are all in www.rawrose.com book!!   But she has quite a few of her awesome recipes HERE, I have made all of them and they are great (especially the Banana Lemon Pie and Hummus)

I’ve decided not to do a day by day anymore, as that would mean I have 6 days to document, so I will just share some more photos!!

Sunshine burgers with jicima fries!  Perfect for your RAWBQ!  haha

  3. OMG that trailer was so moving and motivational! I feel outraged that modern medicine wants to pump people full of unnecessary drugs instead of actually healing them. It's all about money. If everyone incorporated a high raw diet there would be no need for the hundreds of thousands of drugs that are pushed upon us. It's bullshit.
    Anyway, I am happy to hear you are loving your raw food - it really does look amazing!

  4. I remember cutting into a dragon fruit for the first time, and being SHOCKED!! It looks so cool!

    That recipe sounds great - that will make a perfect salad for my next dinner party!

  5. Yes raw desserts are the best!!

    In regards to your question about a snack that is crunchy like popcorn, we will have to think about it. I am sure there is something that doesn't require baking or dehydrating

  7. Dragon fruit is popular in Mexico and I have it alot when I visit my family. You can actually make a dragon fruit juice with lime juice and agave and it is OUT of this world!
