Day 12 - My life is a variety of veggies!

Veggies galore - made into every variation you can imagine & delicious but...it's all veggies never the less. Don't get me wrong - veggies are delicious & there's such a huge variety available - especially when you live right next to the terrific Crossroads Farmers Market - but I miss the variety of textures. The warm softness of bread, the crunchy salty flavour of coconut encrusted prawns with sweet thai chilli sauce. It's all salady & vegetables for me on this RAW food experience. Do I feel better because of it? Absolutely. Is my digestion the best it's been in years? yes. Do I feel more energized after my meals & throughout the day? Definitely.
Though I still miss the texture variety - I have't given up much in way of taste. Rayna at www.healthyfunkyfoods.com is a master at mixing the 5 tastes; sweet, sour, salty, spicy & bitter.  Just enough of each so that no meal has been bland or boring.

One of my favs is the pizza! It's got a super thin raw crust, & tons of dried herbs & topped with dehydrated veggies - with a bit of salad it's a solid lunch or dinner.  Another one of those meals I like to eat & feel apart of the family meal when pizza ordered in is for dinner that night.  Except I think mine probably tastes way better!
