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

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.

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.

Recently I began using a food journal to keep track of what I eat and drink on a daily basis. For my food journal I simply have a spiral bound notebook in which I write the date down on each page and then write what I eat for meals and snacks. If I have juice I also write it down (I don't really drink any other beverages besides water).

Conventional health wisdom explains that the human body needs a diet low in fat in order to remain fit, lean, and healthy. It's funny that although many people eat diets high in fat filled with burgers, chips, candy bars, and fried foods....they avoid the avocado....simply, because it's "high" in fat. Well, if you follow conventional views and don't want to change your eating habits from high fat junk foods I suppose I understand why you don't have the room to spare to fit the fats in from the avocado.
