Light Eating for Survival Blog Project

"Light Eating for Survival" Blog Project a la the movie Julie & Julia.
1 Year. 481 Recipes. 1 ambitious mama.
Days 8, 9, 10, and 11.

I kept my focus on the simplest recipes in the book this time. They are luscious and delicious.

Banana and Grapes

...enough said!

Garlic Dressing

3 cups olive oil

5 sliced garlic cloves

1 tablespoon kelp

1/2 cup chopped parsley

Blend, and enjoy!

Fruit Muesli

3 cups fresh, cut up, juicy fruit (bananas, apples, strawberries, peaches, etc.)

1 cup rolled oats

optional

1/2 cup currants or raisins

1/2 cup chopped nuts

This should be juicy. If not add 1 tablespoon water or fruit juice. Allow everything to marinate for at least 20 minutes.

This is fantastic. I'm going to add the raisins next time. It's just so fruity, juicy, and filling. Kid-friendly too!

Hot n' Spicy

6 oz. apple juice or cider

pinch of cinnamon

slice of orange

Heat everything in a small pot until hot to the touch. Enjoy. Warm apple juice and cinnamon on a cold day.... This is like a warm blanket. Very comforting and soothing.

Russian Dressing

1 cup tomatoes

1/2 cup olive oil

1/2 lemon juice

1 chopped green onion

1 tablespoon honey

2 tablespoon tamari (I used Bragg's Liquid Aminos)

1 tsp. paprika

1 chopped garlic clove

1 tsp. horseradish (opt.)

Blend.

This kind of taste like French Dressing, with a kick. It's quite good. Try it and let me know what you think.
