Date: January 06, 2007 01:15AM Wow, um. I've been a raw foodist for a while now. Its been a loooooong hard struggle. Looking for a great grocery list to stock up on. I have no idea about B12 and amino acids etc... I just really concerned about getting all the nutrition i need that i don't think im getting from my limited options. If you have a really great nut or something to toss into my list, let me know. Re: Grocery List

Date: January 06, 2007 10:16AM Avocado is great for making a dip for your yam and beet chips. You can make a standard guacamole with lemon juice, tomato and garlic and spices if you want. Or blend avacado with red bell pepper and a little chili.

Date: January 06, 2007 02:44PM I shop with a food co-op. Staples to me are almonds, cashews, medjool dates. frozen strawberries, carrots, unsweetened coconut, sunfloweer seeds, sesame seeds.
You can make great almond, sunflower or sesame milk by soaking 1/2 cup nuts or seeds in distilled water, blending on high speed, and straining the milk out. Then blend the milk with frozen bananas and dates for a great smoothie. Re: Grocery List
