Question for raw foodists????
I'm currently a vegan and want to become a raw vegan...but I just don't see how that is possible if I wanted to make a raw dinner recipe I can't eat it because I have to wait until the 6 days that it's done soaking and sprouting!!! Ugh...so complicating! Can anyone help me out? How can I eat if I have to wait for days??!!!!
Answers:
FIrst, if you get a couple of sprouters (I like Kitchen Crop sprouter) you can add new seeds everyday and harvest a full tray a day by rotating them. I harvest three trays a day. Once you get past the initial sprouting time, you are home free (by the way, my sprouts usually are ready in 2 days) Second, you dont have to rely on all of the fancy recipes for sprouting-just enjoy some fresh fruits and veggies in the meantime. Recipe for raw fruit-peel and eat. Recipe for raw veggies-wash, peel or not, dunk in homemade hummus. Super easy, uncomplicated, and yummy. Being raw does not need to be fancy or complicated. Some of the recipes are good, but too time consuming. As time goes by, you are likely to find that you prefer the flavors of the foods just as they come from nature. I love raw, icy cold radishes for breakfast, a crunchy raw veggie salad for lunch, and sometimes lightly steamed or raw veggie with a fruit salad for dinner. Snacks can be nuts, seeds, grains, wraps made with veggies and sprouts, etc. Its also easier to go 80 percent raw, 20 percent lightly cooked-it gives you a bit more freedom. Good luck. Its an awsome way to eat!
