5 Minute Soup

This is the easiest and fastest soup and it's amazingly delicious! And yes, I drank it out of a glass!! When you have an infant and a 4 year old, the fastest consumption possible is preferred:-)

1 cucumber
1 avocado
4-5 handfuls of spinach
Juice of one lemon
1 tsp salt
1-2 cups almond milk
1-2 cups water to get consistency you want!!
 
Enjoy!!!

Purple Cabbage Salad

Since I've been juicing purple cabbage lately and I eat half of it before it ever hits the juicer, I decided to go in search of a good cabbage salad. I love cabbage!! I happened to find one from Oh She Glows and had all of the ingredients needed! I made a few changes: I didn't use toasted seasame seeds. I used hemp seeds instead. And for the dressing, I didn't use all of the water. It turned out amazing!!


Salad
Tahini Lemon Dressing
If you like cabbage I highly recommend this!!! Cabbage is really good for us and probably not eaten very often by most people!! Enjoy!!!

Springtime salad


Since the weather isn't completely cooperating with my dreams of warm temps, I decided I'd pretend it was a warm springtime day with this yummy salad!! 

Here's what I used. All organic ingredients. 

Mixed greens
Broccoli sprouts
Sunflower sprouts
Green and red peppers
Cucumbers
Cherry tomatoes
Blueberries
Strawberries
Craisins
Poppyseed dressing (not raw but one of my favorite non-raw dressings) 

It's a refreshing springtime salad!! Apples are a great choice too if you want to substitute anything. Enjoy!!
