Bowl-Lickin' Un-Cookin'! Seriously!

⊆ Wednesday, April 08, 2009 by Donia | , , , . | ˜ 4 comments »

I really love the blog Green and Crunchy. I find Sheri and her Kale-Popsicle toting crew with their raw recipes and adventures deeply inspiring. They are probably really fun neighbors.

A couple of days ago she put up a post on making Raw Vegan Parmesan "Cheese". We had all the ingredients in hand so...viola! a few food-processing moments later we were sprinkling the stuff on everything!

Not only is it delicious, but you get tons of B-vitamins, protein, and Omega fatty acids from the delightful combination of Nutritional Yeast and Walnuts. (i am not totally sure that Nutritional Yeast is Raw, btw. i have heard its not.)

here is the recipe according to her daughter, "Annaya's Parmesan Method: She placed 1 cup of raw walnuts in the food processor and ground them until they were in small chunks. Then she added 1 cup of nutritional yeast and ground it some more. Lastly she added a pinch of sea salt and ground to a nice powder. Done!"

And here is a little person i know eating it sprinkled on organic multi-colored heirloom popcorn.







If You Care About Organics, You Must Read This!

I received this from a dear friend. Please share with others.

Please tell everyone who wants organic foods.....

US House and Senate are about (in a week and a half) to vote on bill that will OUTLAW ORGANIC FARMING (bill HR 875).

There is an enormous rush to get this into law within the next 2 weeks before people realize what is happening.

Main backer and lobbyist is Monsanto - chemical and genetic engineering giant corporation (and Cargill, ADM, and about 35 other related agri-giants). This bill will require organic farms to use specific fertilizers and poisonous insect sprays dictated by the newly formed agency to "make sure there is no danger to the public food supply".

This will include backyard gardens that grow food only for a family and not for sales.

If this passes then NO more heirloom clean seeds but only Monsanto genetically altered seeds that are now showing up with unexpected diseases in humans.

There is a video on the subject here.
And another one here

The name on this outrageous food plan is: The Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009 (bill HR 875).

THIS IS REAL, FOLKS! PASS THIS ALONG TO ALL CONCERNED ON YOUR MAILING LISTS & CALL YOUR SENATE REPRESENTETIVES TODAY!

Get on that phone and burn up the wires. Get anyone else you can to do the same thing. The House and Senate WILL pass this if they are not massively threatened with loss of their position.... They only fear your voice and your vote.

The best thing to do is go to www.house.gov/writerep all you have to do is put in your zip and it will give you your congressperson and how to get in touch with them. When you call their office someone will answer the phone, just tell them (politely) that you are calling to express your views on HR 875. Tell them your views, they'll take your name and address and pass your comments along to the congressperson.
