Spicy Thai Almond Sauce
Ingredients: 1 ½ cup organic sprouted almonds, or ½ cup raw almond butter
¼ cup cold-pressed oil (grapeseed or peanut oil are best)
1 tablespoons Bragg’s Aminos
1 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 fresh garlic clove, crushed
Preparation: Soak almond spouts overnight and sprout 5 days. Grind sprouted almonds lightly in a food processor. Add remaining ingredients and grind well. Serve over long strip of zucchini, or on a crunchy green salad with cucumbers. Enjoy! :)
Warm Soul Soup
Ingredients: 1 package dried seaweed, about 2 ounces
2 cups alkaline water
1 cake (about 6 ounces) unpasteurized tofu
2 tablespoons unpasteurized miso, any type (slightly acidic, so optional)
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, crushed
½ cup scallions, chopped
¼ cup lemon juice, fresh-squeezed
Preparation: Soak seaweed for 15 minutes in the alkaline water. Put tofu, miso, ginger, and soak water in a blender and blend. Stir in the remaining ingredients and warm in a pot over very low heat for a few minutes. The temperature should never be so high that when you put your finger into the soup, it feels too hot. Serve warm. Should make about 2 bowls... YUM!
Lentil Salad
Ingredients: 2 cups celery, minced
1 tablespoon raw sesame tahini
5 cups lentil sprouts (most lentils found in ordinary stores won’t sprout)
¼ cup raw almond butter
4 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup alkaline water
3 tablespoons Bragg's Aminos
1 red pepper, chopped
2 green onions with tops, minced
2 teaspoons kelp (optional)
Preparation: Soak lentils overnight and sprout for 2 days, rinsing them 2-3 times a day. It takes about 3 cups of dry lentils to make 5 cups of sprouts. Make your dressing by blending the almond butter, olive oil, and alkaline water in blender until smooth. Chop the lentil sprouts in a food processor and put them in a large bowl. Now add all other ingredients, and pour the almond butter mixture over it. Stir the mixture well and chill for several hours in refrigerator before serving. You can use this as a salad or as a sandwich spread. If you feel more creative, stuff the mixture in avocado havles and drizzle with your favorite dressing. My mouth is watering just thinking about it!! :)

Once thoroughly blended, use it to frost your Carob Nut Log! YUM!

Once smooth enough, press the mixture into a pie shell to make your crust. Set aside for now. Place the grated apples in a large mixing bowl. Blend the cinnamon, apple juice and raisins together, and pour it over the grated apples. Mix thoroughly to form your apple filling. Fill the pie crust with the apple filling and garnish it with more shredded coconut. Serve or refrigerate for later. If well-covered, it should keep for 2 days in your fridge.
