Food Porn

I admit, this blog is likely going to be predominantly food porn. I'm collecting photos of delicious foods so I can drool over them later, and reminisce about how mouth-wateringly flavourful and tasty they were.

So, let's get on with it:

Red Pepper Wrap

This was super easy to make and tasted like heaven. Downfall? Expensive. 900 grams of red peppers is hard to find cheap in the winter. I went to the discount section of the local organic food co-op and picked up a couple of bags of peppers that were considered past their prime, but upon inspection there was NOTHING wrong with them!! This is a smart and cheap way to get nice organic produce in the winter. In the summer, my partner is an Organic Master Gardener so we will have alllllll the veggies our little hearts could desire. Well, almost... :)

Anyways - this wrap was made from red peppers, tomatoes, an avacado, some psyllium husk and sea salt. I got the recipe from "Going Raw" by Judita Wignall. It was one of the first things I made, and it was wonderful.

The filling I made up myself - loaded it with fresh veggies (spinach, tomato, celery, chives, carrot, cucumber) and the sauce. Oh, the sauce. I soaked some cashews and then blended them with nutritional yeast, raw spices, lemon juice, and garlic. We topped the veggies and cashew cheese filling with sprouted mung bean.

Delish. I highly recommend!
