Mach said: Imago said: yup. A good one. Also Try this: (this is a healthy 'milkshake') It's a chocolate milkshake Almond Milk Soak a half cup of almonds in a glass of water for 4 to 6 hours. Place in a blender and blend on high for a minute (until the water turns milky). Strain in a milk bag or strainer into a cup. This is the almond milk for the recipe below: Milk Shake * 2 frozen bananas, thinly cut * 1/2 cup of coconut water (you can get in a health food store) (this can also be optional if you just can't get ahold of any). Just use more vanilla flavoring. * teaspoon vanilla extract (or vanilla beans to taste) * cup Almond Milk (recipe above) * 1 to 2 tablespoons of Cocoa powder (to your preference) * 1 teaspoon (or more) of Agave nector (or honey if you don't have Agave) Place in blender. I normally don't use alot of almond milk or coconut water, which makes the milkshake thicker. Blend on high until you get a smooth thick shake. Drink right away. I swear to you, it's the richest , creamiest milkshake ever. And it's good for you too. cool 
do use coconut oil at all ? ( for anything ) I love coconut oil :nod; I even use it on my skin and hair I highly recommend coconut oil for stir frys. It's the bomb. Trader Joes is the best. | |

I see the health benefits in going raw or vegan, the increase in energy, good skin and weightloss but doesn´t it make you lose a lot of muscle mass ? " I´d rather be a stank ass hoe because I´m not stupid. Oh my goodness! I got more drugs! I´m always funny dude...I´m hilarious! Are we gonna smoke?" | |

Actually, these are essential for going RAW/Vegan: 1) Blender 2) Food Processor 3) Dehydrator (in that order) You can find a food processor for 20 bucks at Walmart that does what you need. Sorry, but they are essential. Much like an oven, stove top, and pots and pans are essential for a cooked diet. | |

Imago said: Banana Chai Smoothie (RAW, less than 300 calories, and filled with nutrients) * 2 frozen bananas, thinly sliced (you can actually use one banana and a couple of chunks of pineapple for a variation). * a few thin slices of fresh ginger * a teaspoon of cinnamon * a pinch of ground cloves * a pinch (or to taste) of nutmeg * tablespoon of honey or Agave Nector (optional) * about a half cup to a cup of water depending on how thick you like your smoothie (if you like it more 'milky' you can use freshly made almond milk, or cheat and add a scoop of soy protein). Blend ingredients in a smoothie machine or blender, and enjoy. "I saw a woman with major Hammer pants on the subway a few weeks ago and totally thought of you." - sextonseven | |

there are different theories out there about nutrition type, blood type, etc, that say some people should eat meat - need it in fact. other types demand a more vegetarian diet for maximum health. dr. mercola's website has quite a bit about this. | |

I have given up bread lately and I can do that but I still need my grains. When it comes to wine...oh no..can't give that up. It is the only alcohol that I really enjoy. | |
