Day 3 of 28 Days of Raw & Green Smoothie Challenge

Day 3 and feeling great!

Just put some green coconut wrappers into the dehydrator as I am looking forward to making myself a batch of dumplings for the Chinese New Year which is on the 10th.

Today however is Superbowl Sunday and even though I am not a big football fan I do love vegetarian chilli.  So tonight I will be making myself a heaping bowl of raw chilli! Trust me it tastes just as good as the cooked version.

Here is the recipe for you!


Almond or Walnut Taco Meat
1/2 cup almonds or Walnuts
1/4-1/2 clove garlic
1/8 Tsp cumin
1/8 Tsp ground Corriander
1 1/2 Tbsp Tamari
1 Tbsp EVOO
Sea Salt*
Chipotle or chilli powder*
Dash of ground cayenne pepper*

*Add more to taste

In a food process, process almonds to the consistency of ground cooked meat
Add the remaining ingredients and process lightly till blended.
Place in a bowl and let the Almond meat absorb the flavors.
