I picked up one of Ani Phyo's books in the early summer. She is a Eco Sylist and Organic Food author based out of LA. She is a raw foodist. I really think there is something to a raw food diet. I think its extremely healthy, but I don't think I could do it 100%. But incorporating more raw food is not hard at all. I drink a green smoothie and have a big salad every day. Its a good start but there are definitely way cooler recipes for raw foods. I need to start making things from one of her books.
SOOO, that said, I looked on her website and found a recipe that she likes to make while she's traveling because its really easy to make, requires little ingredients or equipment.
1/2 bunch kale, de-stem, and tear leaves into bite size pieces
1 avocado
1 lemon's juice
1 container sprouts, any kind
In a large mixing bowl, place kale and massage with avocado. Squeeze lemon juice, and massage. Add sprouts and salt, if using. Massage and toss to mix well.
The only change that I made to the dish was that I added a couple teaspoons of hemp seeds. This salad was super quick and easy to make with maximum flavour and satisfaction. The fat in the avocado did it I guess and lemon. Lemon is an amazing fruit. I use it in my smoothies, stir fries, soups and I drink it with hot water in the morning.
There's so much good stuff in this salad. Kale and sprouts have a great amount of protein in them. SO its a powerhouse salad. I'm actually going to make this again tonight. Can't wait.
Ready to go. |
Massage that kale Baby! |
YUM |
