Ready For Fresh Local Fruit? We are!

Bananas..there are bananas everywhere. They are all very ripe. And I'm learning that the big bananas are not actually my favorite. Lol. It's okay, because I know they are sustaining me and filling me with life loving energy until the fruit and veggie season really picks up and everything begins grow and interesting delicious things show up in the food co-op. I'm super super excited..I've been eating a lot of champagne mangos and  halawy dates, and of course banans. ;) hahaha.
They actually aren't that sweet..or flavorful. But they do make yummy ice cream. We're going to give people banana ice cream when it gets warm. Also did we mention? We're having a Spring Fruitluck next Saturday, on April 20th from 3pm to 8 pm. If you're around you should check it out. It's going to be super fabulous, with lots of fresh good fruit and beautiful persons.
The other day we each ate half a watermelon for breakfast. I don't think I've had a good melon before that in literally, months. And it was truly good :) The only thing I wish is that I could've ate the whole thing myself, lol.
I'm so grateful for my life. I'm so happy to be my best friend. So much I (we) have wanted is beginning to manifest and it's beautiful. It's beautiful.

So love this spring for all it's worth and live to the fullest.

Spring Inspiration - For the Love of Fruit :)



A Delicious Salsa made from Mango, Avocado, Tomato, Cucumber, Cilantro, Rainbow Chard Stem and Green Onion. Pile into a Chard Leaf and enjoy :)


Simple Guacamole made of avocado and lots of tomatoes, cilantro, ginger, and celery. Scoop with celery boats.





Lettuce Tacos with smooshed Avocado, Tomato, Red Pepper, Cilantro, Carrot, and whatever else you wanna put in there :) Very easy and yummy way to eat your greens.



Fresh and Simply Spring Salad: thinly sliced Cucumbers, Avocado slices, Purple Carrot slices, Sprouts, thin slices of Celery, and some citrus juice. I used lemon and mineola. This is super yummy :)





And last but certainly not least, this Banana Ice Cream Fruit Tart:
Just take a small amount of dates and a tiny bit of nuts and process them to form a crust. Top with 'nanna ice cream and some fresh fruits and there you have a simple low-fat creamy raw desert. 

We hope you enjoyed all these pictures and have fun experimenting with the low-fat high-carb raw vegan lifestyle, and be sure to try some of these simple and delicious recipes and tell us what you think :)
Have a wonderful spring, full of rebirth and excitement!
And eat as much fruits as you wish :)
