Date: February 15, 2007 02:18AM Hi everyone! Hope you all had a lovely day today. I made this dinner for my husband tonight partly as his V day present and partly to thank him for being so gungho with us going raw (he has eaten a typical SAD his whole life so this is a big change for him)!
Coconut noodles in a peanut sauce and a wakame and tomato salad with garlic and ginger: Individual chocolate cherry "cheese"cakes for dessert: The presentation on the cheesecakes is terrible because I don't have all my nifty fancy cake molds with me where I am right now and I had to improvise lol. It tastes better than it looks I swear haha. My website: The Coconut Chronicles Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/15/2007 02:19AM by TheCoconutChronicles. Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

Date: February 15, 2007 05:14PM Yummy. Good for him. My husband went raw with me a few months ago. He is very happy he did. He was SAD most of his life. He wants to be healthy and keep up with his healthy family. Your husband is lucky to have such a gourmet wife. Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

How do you prepare meals like that? They look so professional. I am always so jealous of other peoples gourmet meal preperations and presentation abilities. I am still eating my salads with olive oil and apple-cider vinegar. It's really sad! Anyway--silly question. When you say 1/2 cup of ginger or 1 Tbsp ginger. Do you mean ginger grated? ginger juiced? The whole ginger root? Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

Date: February 16, 2007 03:54AM minou33- Thats not sad at all and believe me if I didn't have a meat eating husband to win over to the raw side, my meals would be very simple (if you look a few entries down on the blog you will see two very simply deconstructed salads that I think you'd really like.) My mom was a chef so I grew up with elaborate presentations.
Re: ginger... After I peel the root, I usually mince or grate mine fresh for the recipes. KelBel - SAD = Standard American Diet My website: The Coconut Chronicles Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 02/16/2007 03:58AM by TheCoconutChronicles. Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

yer mom was a chef? wow. no wonder you're able to make such presentations so naturally seems like you're the raw chef now what was in the chocolate mousse thing? i looked on your website and it had a terrific recipe for the coconut noodle/peanut sauce but what about the chocolate? i told a friend of mine that i would make her and her husband a chocolate raw thing but now i'm wondering: i don't make a lot of things and all i could think was dates rolled in coconuts ha ha so, it would be cool if it were more than that they are sort of at the hinge of getting into rawfoods her husband especially loves chocolate cacao beans make me a bit cuckoo so i've stayed away from them for a long time but it would be nice to make something for them i'm supposed to make it by friday ( cuz that is when i'll be seeing them again) Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

Date: February 19, 2007 04:10PM coconutchronicles, I made this dinner for my husband and I on Saturday night. All of it except for the cheesecake. It was fabulous. My daughter loved the wakame tomato salad, but the other dish was too spicy for her. It was a very rich dish...not something that I could eat all the time, but it was SO good. We loved it. Thanks for sharing this amazing recipe! Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!

If you like dates take a look at my donut recipe... it should be in the "raw food photos" section on the blog. coconutcream - you are my fruitarian inspiration! You are like a fruit goddess <3 <3 My website: The Coconut Chronicles Re: Our RAW Valentines Day dinner!
