Gourmet Party Cheeze Dip...




I made this the other day to take as a snack with me to school. I actually was trying to make raw mock tuna fish but put way too much parsley in it and it turned green and then I decided it was like a cheeze dip. I like it a lot :-). I did not make these crackers so don't get too excited. I bought them, they are Mary's crackers. They are made out of various seeds and although they are not raw I do still eat them from time to time. My semester is school is slowly coming to an end and my adventure to Kripalu is beginning. I bought my plane ticket to New York today and I will be in New York one night and then the next day I will take a bus to Kripalu. I plan on going to Pure Food and Wine and I also want to watch a broadway show. So, I have still been making vegetable juice daily as well as fruit smoothies. I think the vegetable juice is giving me a lot of nutrition and helps to keep unhealthy cravings at bay. Something I will miss being at Kripalu is having my own kitchen, food and equipment to experiment in. I know they will have a great deal of raw organic food selections to choose from though. I have also heard there is a raw chef in the kitchen and so I hope we get an occasional raw dessert! I don't know how many recipes I will be able to share while I am there on this blog but I guess I can just document the raw food that I am eating!

Gourmet Party Cheeze Dip Recipe:

1 cup of raw cashews
1 cup of raw sunflower seeds
1/4 cup of chopped onions
1/4 cup of parsley
3 tablespoons of lemon juice
1 teaspoon of sea salt

Directions: Put all of these ingredients into the food processor and mix until well combined! I used an ice cream scooper to make this nice round shape. Hope you enjoy it!

  1. Remember Michael, the raw vegan chef I told you about at Kripalu? Well, he and Tim Van Orden just started a new raw food meet-up in the Berkshires! Perfect timing, huh? You'll get to meet lots of new raw foodies while you're there.
