Valentine's Day Meal Idea: Raw Ruby Ravioli

Need an idea for your Valentine's Dinner?  The Beet Ravioli from one of my favorite raw food books, Living Raw Food by Sarma Melngailis would be an awesome choice.   I have made this before and it was delicious!  It looks difficult and makes a beautiful presentation, but it was really super easy. There's plenty of time for getting supplies (nothing too fancy or hard to find) and even doing a trial run.  Highly recommended.

Cocoa Crispies. Who says kids won't eat healthy?

I'm so stoked about my latest dehydrator adventure.  Cocoa Crispies!  This recipe is in RAW FOOD, REAL WORLD, by Sarm Melngailis and Matthew Kenney.  Buckwheat groats turn into crispies perfect for a raw living food breakfast for the kiddos.  I love it too and can't believe how easy it was to make.

Their version uses maple syrup--not technically raw, but you could substitute agave or stevia.  I'm obsessed with this book right now and my fabulous dehydrator,  been trying a new recipe almost every day.  Just add hemp or almond milk (made in about two seconds in the blender) and you're good to go.  For variations, add frozen raspberries or bannana.  I think this would be a great portable meal.
