Make it Monday

Welcome back to another Make it Monday!

So today I had a very over powering craving for vegan pizza. Now said pizza is not raw and is covered with vegan cheese that is high in fat and not really my aim for my body. I want to remain high carb low fat.

After having a few discussions (knowing that I really shouldn't eat the pizza) I decided that I would make an EPIC raw vegan pizza instead...and this is what I made.

I had to get the planning right first...and I do not think that nutritional yeast is raw, but heck I have certain exceptions. 

So, I made a few layers of courgette and some dill
Blended all the sauce ingredients
Topped with some veg
Then added loads of salad because this was not healthy enough...
Finished off with the "cheese" dressing

Et voilà! Raw pizza...

My disappointments were

1. WhyTF did I use clingfilm?
2. I need to make the base with either thicker layers or a different vegetable as I'd hoped that I would have been able to pick it up like a traditional pizza
3. Aww man...it took me a long time to prepare and a much shorter time to eat!
4. Poop, I was not careful enough with the mandolin.

My amazing feelings are

1. So glad I made this and didn't go waste my money and raw streak on a vegan oily/fatty pizza
2. My belly thanks me
3. I feel well and truly satisfied
4. Look at my beautiful creation! I should be a chef ;)

If you want to know my recipe let me know. I should start putting these all together and publish a book ;) haha jump on the band wagon.

I hope you feed your cells the best that they deserve!

Much love

Make it Monday

OH MY FRUIT it is Make it Monday!!!

Today I made the most delicious, in fact orgasmic, sauce for my cucumber noodles. I am in heaven...I do not want to wash the taste from my mouth ever, in fact it even tastes better than any sweet fruit (although I do love a juicy persimmon)!

I did not take photos as I was busy devouring it, but here is what I used.

• 6 plum tomatoes
• 5 sun dried tomatoes, soaked
• 2 spring onion
• 2 stalks thin celery
• 1 small red pepper
• 1 garlic clove (chopped if you do not own a vitamix)
• 4-5 leaves of basil (I would have added more but my plants are slightly sad because I neglected them)

Mix until fully blended and pour all over your salad/noodles/spaghetti or just eat as a soup.

It really is a taste bud sensation and I recommend this for all of your dressings - I can never get fed up of tomato dressings :D

Make it Monday's are becoming more about food, yet I still have Tasty Tuesday. What do you think about having 2 potential recipe days next to each other? I suppose I could have Monday as my own recipes and Tuesday as other fabulous fellow raw foodies recipes...let me know becasue I do not really make anything other than food nowadays! I suppose it should motivate me to do something crafty...hmmm 

Your comments are appreciated :)

Much love
