Made it today, got the recipe from Russell James~ the raw chef's blog. It is really tasty, and filling.



for salad:
4 heads kale (this will seem like alot but will wilt down when salt is added)
2T celtic sea salt ( I used less)
2 c tomatoes, sliced
1 c hulled hemp seeds


For dressing:

3 avocados
2 chipolte peppers ( I used Habanaros)
1/2 c olive oil
2 T agave
1/4 c lemon juice



* remove stems from kale, wash then cut into very small bits.
*place in bowl, add salt and start to massage the kale till it wilts ( not very long)

* add tomatoes and hemp seeds, and mix by hand

* blend the dressing ingrediants in high-speed blender until creamy and mix into kale by hand.

yum I say.

Wow that looks and sounds delicious.
Unfortunately, I wouldn't be able to eat more than a bite or two if I made it.
Way too rich, way too much fat.
Looks fabulous though.

That sounds appropriate.
I just can't hae more than a TINY bit of nuts/seeds/avocado or I feel gross for a couple days.

Which is a shame, because I'm been wanting a "creamed green"-type meal, and mashed "potatos" sound so good...I used to make them with steamed cauliflower, but not now that I am raw!

Mallow - you _can_ do that!

You could adapt the kale recipe here - leave out the olive oil and only use one avocado, maybe use spinach instead of kale.

I also make a 'mashed potatoes' by blending cauliflower and avocado (with some nutmeg, black pepper, lemon - you can add whatever seasonings you like) - you can play with the ratio of cauliflower to avocado so that the fat content works for you both at a satisfaction level and at a digestibility level. And it's hearty and filling and lower fat than guacamole!

love
Ela
