Quick easy RAW ideas!

So I have to be honest,  I’ve been having a hard time incorporating raw food into my diet lately because I’ve been craving bagel type goodness!!   MMM  BREAD!!!   I think maybe it’s because I just finished reading a book all about a  baker who is super passionate about baking, and some times goes into detail about how soft the bread is, how chewy and how the butter melts and drips as she’s eating it…. *drools*

Thank God that book is done!! haha

So I thought I could do a post about quick easy raw meals that you can make in a flash!!  Maybe I will re inspire myself!

Nori Rolls – Wrap up veggies of choice in nori rolls (preferable raw ones)   That’s it!! Serve with dipping sauce of choice.

You won’t even miss the rice I promise! 

Stir fry…  or not?

This was Dave’s meal that I cooked, but I also made the same for myself raw with no chicken! (but forgot to take a pic)  What’s in it – carrots, spiralized zuchinni, mango, green onion, snap peas, peppers.

Sauce was super easy and delicious (for both raw and cooked dinners)  1/2 fresh mango, 2 Tbsp peanuts (or just peanut butter), a bit of soya sauce, lime juice and chili flakes.   Then I blended it up in the blender and had a perfect creamy sauce!!

Of course salad is super easy and so versatile,  you can really toss anything you want in there!  the possibilities are endless. 

Salad rolls are quick and easy – although the rice wrap isn’t considered raw – it’s still a great vessel for delicious veggies!!  You could use the same sauce for these as the stirfry!!  

 

I think one of my favorite things has been veggie noodles…

These are sooo good!!  Especially with the creamy cashew sauce on top, but you could top it with anything really!! 

  Now you do need a spiralizer for this.  I got mine from here.  Which is a great Canadian company you can buy lots of good stuff from (like a vitamix)

Of course there are always snack plates!!  Great for a little snack!

 

Add whatever veggies you like, dried fruit, nuts, hummus, seaweed, raw crackers. 

Ok that last one is a snack plate/salad combo… with nut cheese!!

Of course, last but not least, when I’m in a rush I like to make a green smoothie for my lunch – I just add an extra scoop of hemp seeds to up the protein and away I go!!

There should be a bumper sticker that says I heart Green Smoothies! haha

Hope this inspired you even a wee bit!!  I’d love for you to add some great quick raw meals – feel free to link drop too!!

Have a beautiful Tuesday!!   We have family coming from Austria today, so that’s pretty exciting!!!
