Another Raw Food Potluck Extravaganza!



'


Today I went to a raw food potluck at Sunshine's place. I carpooled there with Edie from give it to me raw, an awesome raw foodie chick:). I brought the pineapple flowers with grape stems. Aren't they pretty? I made the pineapple shapes out of cookie cutters that I have. Edie made a delicious chocolate pie and some raw hummus! Sunshine made flax crackers and salmon pate. Met an awesome raw food family who brought pineapple and papaya. We had a lively discussion and watched the video "Food Matters". Overall it was fun and Edie accused me of being addicted to food porn which I can't deny. I am addicted. Have a great night:).

  7. Hello Agness,

    Well, I wish I could tell you how all of these dishes were made but for this one I only made the pineapple flowers. I am not sure about the recipes for the other dishes. Thanks for reading!

  8. Hello,
    Lou here :) I am also curious about the chips since they look awesome for raw...How did they taste?? I'm looking for a great raw chip recipe and even if you don't know the recipe even just an idea of their taste would be interesting...
    Thanks
    xoxo

  9. Lou,
    Yes, the chips looks great don't they? They almost look like pringles I think. Honestly, I did not really like they way they tasted though. I liked the flax crackers next to them a lot better.

  10. Thanks for your response :) I have made flax crackers and I've also tried long term raw foodies flax crackers but I'm yet to come across a recipe i like. I find them too strong in flavour because of other ingredients mixed with them. I will experiment some day but I'm thinking more simple flavours. I am curious as to a combination of almond meal with the flax??
    Lou :) :)

  11. Lou,

    I actually think almond meal and flax would go very well together. Have you ever tried using golden flax seeds? I never use the dark kind because I don't like the taste as much as the golden flax seeds.

  12. I have only tried the darker variety myself but will give the golden flax and almond meal a go later this week and let you know :)
