Some people might find pineapple too sweet, but when adding pleasantly bitter Tahini and green spirulina you get a great combination. Pineapple is not merely sweet, but also sour and cooling. It contains bromelain a powerful anti-inflammatory agent. Bromelain moreover has chemicals that might interfere with the growth of tumor cells and slow blood clotting, […]
Cranberry Morning Juice
Cranberries, both tart and bitter, are loaded with antioxidants and should be eaten more often. Tart cranberries and sweet oranges make for a great combination.

Nut Meat
Nut meat – a vegan meat with wonderful texture and flavors. Savory and somewhat salty, this nut meat is a great addition to your marinara or pesto topped zucchini or squash “pasta”.

Watermelon Parsley Lime Smoothie
Perfect for hot summer days! I just love the sweet and juicy watermelon, the green parsley with minerals for balance, and some lime for zest.

Plum Salad
Summer and fall are great times for stone fruits like plums, apricots, nectarines and peaches. Cherries are part of this family too, so if you find any, add some to the salad, they are amazing. Dried plums (also called prunes, which may sound a little bit old fashioned!) are sort of a forgotten food, but […]
