Fast Recipes
Whether you’re very busy and in or a rush, or a poor college kid who can’t afford a decadent dessert, or just new to raw foods and are still hungry after a salad (or all three!), this is the snack/dessert for you. It’s simple and sweet. I got this recipe from my sister. It’s a lot like elizabeth’s “Chewy Banana Oaties” but without the oaties…
A nice refreshing pick me up with a ginger citrus like zing. Very healthy, provides lots of antioxidants and omegas!
Great way to get rid of those summer cucumbers and a twist on the traditional recipe.
I wanted some kind of taco that was simple and didn’t require me to run the food processor or blender, since the hubby was sleeping. This came out great. My hubby tried it and liked it, but I chopped everything up into taco salad for him. A nice quick and refreshing taco (or salad)!!!!
10 min prep. 2 hour dehydrate time- Super fast! My boyfriend had these for lunch. They were so good he didn’t even need sauce or want the crackers I put out for him. He went totally raw!
I personally think that this mimicks the texture of tuna better than any other recipe. I love it so much that it’s my tuna replacement even when I’m not eating raw. Really, the only part of this that’s my own idea is grating the jicama, the rest is up to you. I like it on its own or on a slice of manna bread.
This is an extremely refreshing blackberry juice I discovered while experimenting. It’s so tasty you’ll love it!
“Careful when you open a jar of these – the only way to stop eating them is to finish the jar.” – McNeill
This recipe compliments of David McNeill. It was adapted from ‘Tasty Vegan Delights’.
When I took a bite of these cucumbers, I couldn’t believe how good they were.
I especially like this pickle recipe because it does NOT use vinegar, an amylase (enzyme) inhibitor. Although, apple cider vinegar has its benefits. Fresh dill could be used.
As with any recipe that uses lemons, make sure the lemons taste ‘right’ or taste good. Lemons can make or ‘break’ a recipe.

For those who love hemp and for those you would like a super healthy nutritious snack!
Smooth and creamy. What a great combo these two are together. Very sweet!!!
These are delicious….you’ll love them. It’s actually an adopted recipe of my mom’s SAD granola bars.
For those who want a quick drink without juicing, here’s a nice one using a blender. This smoothie is runny enough to be called juice without having to extract it by straining. It is very simple, yet so delicious and REFRESHING!
Tropical because of the fruit. Suburban Summer, because the blended greens give the refreshing smell of freshly cut grass in the summer in the ‘burbs. (I don’t ever get that aroma in the city!)
I have been experimenting with green smoothies, and trying to move past just using spinach. At Trader Joe’s I found in a bag, already washed and cut, ready to use “Southern Greens” that includes collard greens, turnip greens, mustard greens, and spinach. I also got a variety of organic frozen fruit… makes smoothies quick and easy!!
My very favorite detox. Best consumed in the morning. Don’t eat anything for at least two hours before or afterwards—beet is a powerful detoxifier. The apples make this sweet and delicious, the celery freshens it up, and the ginger gives it a little kick AND soothes the stomach.
Very energizing raw breakfast that keeps you full for hours. It has a mouth feel of old time warm breakfast w/ a nice sweet crunch too. Kid-friendly! Enjoy & God Bless! Angel http://myquest4health.blogspot.com Watch Me Transform!
The most surprisingly delicious juice-combination I have come across in my raw food adventures. Great for first thing in the morning, or for juice-fasting.
Extra smooth, creamy milkshake like no other! Tastes soo good and even better than those commercial ones.
This is a combination recipe that is great for refried beans. The original is from Robyn Boyd and is in her book RawSome (mostly raw with some cooked…has kid approved recipes) Her version used 2 cups of almonds only and the rest of the OPTIONAL ingredients and she used Wholeearth Latin AMerica Spice blend instead of the herbs listed. This version is from my friend Beth who is a Raw Chef and likes to keep the power of the spice in your hands!
This is a quick & delicious salad dressing/dip with a great blend of tastes. It’s responsible for converting me & at least one other person to raw foods! If you make a big batch, it can dry out in the fridge after a few days so you may have to add more water to obtain the desired consistency.
Super simple, quick and easy, nutritious and delicious. What more can I say? The funny thing about this is I do not care for any of these items alone but together… together they are one of my favorite foods!
This is an incredible ketchup or BQ sauce, or a sauce for wraps or raw sushi rolls…I make it ALL the time and just love it! Definitely one of my favourites! Non-raw people just love this too…it’s really amazing because the texture gets just like ketchup if you make it thicker, and thinner, it’s a wonderful dressing! I love versitality.
I would’ve never dreamed these could taste so amazing…they are supremely addicting! Plus, it’s a super way to greens into your diet. I could eat 3-4 bunches of kale straight this way! This is also a great movie snack or to make with kids!
Satisfy your creamy/crunchy/sweet cravings all in one!
Quick, easy mango cobbler that is out of this world. Inspired from Ani!
Quick and tasty way to eat your hemp!
Who knew you can make something that so resembles the classic? And without the use of nut milk too! And yet, the first time I tasted this with cinnamon, I thought, “Hmmm… tastes like Christmas.” And my grandmother said, “Hmmm… if a person didn’t know better, they would think this is watered down cow milk.” To which I replied, “Like skim milk?!”
One of the most fantastic green smoothie ever! Here’s the recipe for those who want to experience the taste of orange and green mingled bliss…
A lovely pink revitalizing refreshment, perfect for a Sunday morning.
