How to Make Raw Salsa Soup

Here is a recipe for raw salsa soup. Very basically this is a simple salsa recipe pureed in a blender or food processor until a soup like consistency is reached. The amounts below are enough for one bowl of soup so multiply as necessary. This recipe is a bit strong and spicy so adjust the amounts of garlic, cayenne, and cilantro as you see fit.

If you like salsa but don't like to eat lots of tortilla chips this recipe can help curb your desire for some spicy salsa in a delicious all raw way!

Ingredients

1 medium tomato
1/4 cup cilantro
2 cloves garlic

Green-Lipped Mussel Oil

When I first heard about the product MOXXOR, which contains a powerful omega-3 and antioxidant formulation, I was a little surprised to hear that the source of omega-3s was Green Lipped Mussel Oil. I had never heard of such a thing and was curious about what it was exactly and what it could do for me. So after doing some research I will let you in on what I discovered.

Almost Raw No-Bakes

This is a recipe for almost raw no-bakes, a twist on the traditional no-bake cookie recipe. I first stumbled upon a variation of this recipe on goneraw.com, a website with tons of raw food recipes uploaded by users.

Irradiated Food

Recently the FDA announced that spinach and lettuce sold in the United States will be allowed to be irradiated. Knowing what irradiation is and does to food I was a bit angry but unfortunately not surprised by the decision. I've summarized some information about irradiation to provide an overview about the process and what it means to us and our food.

Good Business and MSG

In my last blog post I wrote about Moxxor, a dietary supplement company that states on it's website that it donates 10% of its net profits...and that got me to thinking... This company, Moxxor, offers a high quality unique supplement that not only provides a higher anti-inflammatory value than Fish Oil EPA but also a higher ORAC value than several super fruits. So this company, which offers a superb product to enrich the health of people and donates 10% of its net profits also has a foundation (MOXXOR Foundation) dedicated to humanitarian aid.

How to Make a Green Smoothie

It's likely that you've heard of the green smoothie before but you might be wondering "What exactly is a green smoothie and how does it taste?". First off there isn't really one green smoothie recipe out there, more like thousands. The term green smoothie basically means that you are making a healthy smoothie with fruits and vegetable greens. Yep, it's that simple. Also, green smoothies taste awesome, you just have to find the variation you like best.

How to Compost

Whether you are looking to help the earth, get some nutrient rich soil for your garden, or to simply reduce the amount of trash you send to the curb each week, composting is for you. I choose to compost because it makes sense to me to not throw items in the trash that don't really belong there, I don't want to fill our landfills with banana peals and orange rinds, which will quickly become soil in my backyard. Since composting is incredibly easy to do and requires virtually no time to make and maintain I suggest everyone start one to help reduce the destructive impact we have on the world.

The 11th Hour

I recently watched the documentary "The 11th Hour" a film that highlights the tremendous stress we have placed on the planet through our continual consumption and focus on economic growth with lack of regard for the natural world and our connection to it. The film indicates that we are at a breaking point and that a change in our treatment of our environment needs to happen now.
