I finally did it. I pulled out Nourishing Traditions, found the raw milk yogurt recipe, and made it. (This post is part of Healthy Home Economist’s Monday Mania.) I hadn’t planned on it. We’d been going along, drinking raw milk kefir green smoothies for breakfast as part of our healthy diet regimen, with seeming contentment [...]
A truly healthy diet includes a good bit of raw food. And not just fruits and vegetables – raw cheese is a great source of protein and calcium, as well as healthy fats. It’s the perfect alternative for people who live in places where raw milk has been banned from public sale (and all my [...]
Today I am participating in Real Food Wednesday courtesy of kellythekitchenkop.com.

Christmas cookie recipes don’t have to be filled with sugar and transfats. They can be completely free of the chemical additives that often increase [...]
A homemade tahini recipe is not at all complicated, and an inexpensive option of a healthy diet. Just put some sesame seeds in a high-quality food processor, whirl it until smooth and spreadable, and voila! It’s as easy as that. Or, is it? Well, it could be. If you like the bitter taste of store-bought [...]
How’s this for a healthy diet? The other day, we had ice cream for breakfast. Seriously. Of course, it wasn’t the run-of-the-mill grocery store frozen sugar-laden stuff. It was raw ice cream, made from young coconuts. I based it on the recipe in Natalia Rose’s book, The Raw Food Detox Diet, but decided to modify [...]
