Desperate for Dressings!

2014-05-25T20:10:56.000Z

Hey everyone, I love salads with tons of veggies, but I have not found a good low fat raw vegan dressing that I like. I used to do creamy asian dressings, or balsamic vinegar. I'm not really digging just lemon juice and I've tried blending up peppers and celery and spices but I can't find a good tasting combo! Recipes or ideas??

The Dark Side Of Tomatoes

2013-07-24T13:32:54.000Z

Hey everyone, I've recently been researching whether I should eat tomatoes or not in regards to their affect on the body. What I came up with is that they are acid forming and cause inflammation in the body, especially in people with arthritis. This makes me so sad because I love love love grape tomatoes as a salad dressing on my salad......Anyone have any farther knowledge on tomatoes or alternative salad dressings? Thanks!

Lemon seeds

2013-05-11T09:13:40.000Z

Making a dressing I accidentally forgot to take out seeds from lemon juice and blend them in dressing. There are 7 or more lemon seeds in dressing. Are they high in fat? Are they eatable generally?

Hi everyone!

I've been on this diet for 10+ months now and the hardest part for me in the beginning was of course how to do this fruity lifestyle. I made this video that shows exactly what I ate during a day and I also log everything in cron-o-meter. I hope this will be helpful to you and also show you that it's is actually really easy to be raw =)

Need Salad Dressing Recipes

epiphany dressing recipe (no nightshades)

2012-05-22T23:55:43.000Z

I'm so excited about a night-shade free, overt-free zucchini dressing that is going to save my life. I'm afraid that nightshades aggravate my acne, so I finally just gave up tomatoes for a month-or-more-long trial.

4 ataulfo mangos

1 TBSP or so of sliced green onion

one dried, salt/oil-free OLIVE

one to two large leaf of basil

stalk of celery

1/2 medjool date

squirt of lemon

I think think the mix of the olive/mango/&basil hints of tomato, and takes care of my tomato craving. I love it with my Joyce Chen spiralizer super-thin zuke noodles (I squeeze out the excess water). I can't wait to add chopped cilantro, maybe some shredded coconut! It definitely looks like a Thai-type dish.

Oh, I get my olives from the Raw Food World (yeah I know, I know, but that's the only place I could find salt-free, oil-free olives. They are sooo good and last forever because you only use one at a time--even if you chop one up in a salad, the little pieces are quite strong. Tastes totally diff. from a non-dried olive)

Play with the recipe and tell me what you come up with!

HELP i need salad dressings!

2012-03-28T17:26:02.000Z

I just went raw but haven't found any salad dressings that work for me. Do any of you guys have a great simple recipe?

how to get more greens in

2012-01-24T01:01:26.000Z

I've tried to like lettuce and spinach, but I just have a hard time eating it. I especially can't stand spinach. Before 811, I loved salad, but I always put some greek dressing on it. I've tried a few raw salad dressing recipes, but they haven't made me like eating salad any more.

Today I put one kale leaf in my tomato soup which turned out tasty, but I know one leaf won't cut it.

Any more ideas on how I can get more greens in, or how I can learn to enjoy them?

Orange Tomato Dressing

2011-12-14T23:52:35.000Z

Ive been having the hardest time with all raw dressings that are 811. Ive been experiementing for a while and hadnt found a single recipe that I enjoyed and usually ended up adding balsamic vinegar to make them edible. But today I FINALLY came up with a recipe that I can look forward to putting on my salads! And it follows 811rv guidelines as well!

Recipe for one salad (six cups of greens + extras):

15g sundried tomato, soaked in 2T water

70g tangerine, deseeded

1/4c. fresh squeezed tangerine

1/4c. loosely packed fresh basil

Blend and yum! I also threw a small handful of baby spinach in there too for some extra greens but its completely optional.

Eating Greens & staying Low Fat

2011-12-04T01:57:53.000Z

Hello All!

I've been working on a raw lifestyle for about a year, and am at a point where I want to fine tune the diet portion. I was wondering how you all accomplish eating your veggies without adding too much fat into your diet.

At this point, I drink 16oz of green juice in the morning, have 2 mono fruit meals (breakfast & lunch) and have a large salad for dinner. When I input everything in a nutrient calculator, the fat is around 15%, due to the avocado or nuts in my salad dressing.

Any thoughts on lower fat dressings? or on other vegetable based meals that are lower in fat?

And what do you all think about green juice? (I think it's a great way to start the day) I haven't seen much about it in discussions on 30BaD.

Thanks a bunch & Happy citrus season!

Homegrown Salsa Recipe

2011-06-19T15:12:50.000Z

Check out this recipe and many others on my 811 recipe blog: http://the811recipespot.blogspot.com/

Homegrown salsa

Ingredients:

- 4 lg tomatoes, preferably homegrown or local since it's tomato season!!
- 2 ears of corn, cut off the cob
- 1 ripe (red) jalapeno or more for HOTT. If you can only find green ones you can use that, or set some green ones on your
window sill until they start turning red.
- 1/8 large yellow onion*
- 1 clove garlic*
- juice of 3 small limes
- herbs of choice. For classic salsa I like just using cilantro. This time I didn't have any on hand so I picked some dill and garlic chives from my garden and that worked really well.

Directions:

1. Dice tomatoes, jalapeno, onion, and garlic.
2. Mince herbs.
3. Through everything together in a bowl and mix with lime juice.

Another option is to blend some or all of this, depending on how you like your salsa.

This is good right away, but gets even better if you let it sit in the fridge for a few hours.

*the 80/10/10 diet does not recommend eating onions and garlic. If you don't use these foods, you can leave them out completely or use a milder version like green onions and/or garlic chives.

Creamy Dreamy Avocado Dip

2011-02-10T13:59:37.000Z

Recipe From my recipe blog -- www.the811recipespot.blogspot.com

Creamy Dreamy Avocado Dip

Ingredients:

- 1 small avocado
- 1 large tomato
- 1/2 large red, orange, or yellow bell pepper
- juice of 1 lemon
- optional - pinch of fresh parsley, cilantro, or basil

Directions:

1. Blend all ingredients in blender
2. Add in a little love, blend again.
3. Enjoy!

This goes really well with the collard wraps on my blog or can be used as a salad dressing. And it makes quite a lot. I usually share.

Great Savory Salad Dressing

2010-03-23T01:14:10.000Z

just figured this out the other day.. i buy nothing-added sun-dried tomatoes from www.rawfromthefarm.com and usually soak them anywhere from 3-10 hours before using them.. just enough water to cover them.. this makes them delicious to use in soups, sauces, salads, or just snack on as is

the water i would typically drink really slowly before my meal.. it's dark red, really pungent and rich tasting.. the closest thing i can compare it to is a dry red wine lol

but the other day i thought to try pouring a little on my salad as dressing and it was the best salad i've had in awhile.. it was a fairly simple one of chopped baby spinach, the soaked sun-dried tomatoes chopped, some blades of onion grass from my backyard diced up, and a handful of cilantro.. then just a tablespoon or so of the soak water tossed in.. tonight i had the same with added romaine and fresh tomatoes
