3 large carrots
1 peeled cucumber
1 thumb sized piece of ginger, peeled
1/2 haas avocado
1/4C diced tomato
1/4C minced cucumber

run carrots, peeled cucumber and ginger through a juicer. Put juice in a blender with avocado and 1/2 tsp salt. Blend until smooth. Pour into a bowl and garnish with chopped vegetables. Serves 1 person.

I ate this for dinner last night and it was really good!

Here is an interesting smoothie I tried yesterday as well:

1C carrot juice
1C almond milk
1 or 2 frozen banannas

Blend in a blender until smooth. This was also surprisingly good. I drank it for breakfast...It doesn't taste at all like what you'd think. BTW do NOT buy store almond milk for this recipe...Or ever. Strore bought almond milk is very gross. It is easy and fun to make your own and here is my recipe.

1C almonds that have been soaked for 4 hours
6C filtered water
1/4C maple syrup

blend almonds and 4C water on high speed for 3-5 minutes. Strain through a clean, cotton dish towel into a bowl. Take almond pulp and remaining 2C water and blend for 2-3 minutes. Strain again and add maple syrup. Pour into a pitcher and chill. This almond milk will stay good for about 2 days.

Those are some good recipes! I recently purchased a blender so I've been trying to use it as much as possible lately. I'll be trying those out.

Good to see you posting in OI again.

EDIT: Blending broccoli in some fo the water you cooked it in makes for a really good soup. Add a thin slice of Goats cheese on top, makes for a quick dish.

I'm a big believer in soup being warm.

Some like it hot. ahahahahah!
Some like it cold. oh ohohoho !
Some like it in the pot nine days old... nine days old.

You could warm it through in pan if the mood took you.

That recipe needs more tasty dead animals.

Heh, I'm a raw foodist, so I've gotten to the point where I don't really like warm food that much.:P

Cucumber soup bitches

Cream of Mushroom or Pea or Carrot soups are all good. I've had a good soup made from sweet potato pie, as well.

hot almost, me too...
