Raw Vegan “Refried Beans”

Happy New Moon in Libra!   As the scales of Libra are said to symbolise balance, what better way to increase stability and equilibrium in one’s life than to create (and maintain) ongoing patterns of mindful eating for health and positive development in all aspects of our existence? Please consider this: Our experiences on Earth are not merely limited to our own uniquely isolated perceptions of such, but more of an intricate weaving of collective evolution and molecular events which cumulatively affect...

Savoury Nori Crackers

Happy Harvest Season! This is to be my first installment in a somewhat consolidated/multi-layered, ongoing entry for items most requested by some fabulous social media comrades and fulfillment of student suggestions (I’m fairly certain that you know who you are ♥). It is also meant to be a birthday/healing gift for my mother. A delicious, easily prepared, long lasting, multi-purpose recipe beats some generic “get well soon” or birthday greeting card any day… right? 😉 Happy appearance day,...

Where to begin? At the moment I seem to be experiencing a momentary loss for words, focus, even direction… as my mind has been reeling in awe of all that I have experienced over the past several weeks. Before moving forward with anything else, I would first like to offer a massive wave of gratitude to all of my amazing readers and the fabulous divas over at Skinny Scoop for having kindly declared my blog to be one of the “Top 25 Vegan Blogs of 2013”. Thanks to all of you, The Raw Veganista blog...

Juice Pulp Artistry

This month I was presented with the best gift ever, as an offering for my birthday/23rd Veganniversary/”get well soon” (how long does it take to fully recover from a broken knee,  anyway?)/Lorax Communuity project & book helper – a Sedona RAW FOOD dehydrator from Tribest! I had previously owned 3 Excaliburs (two of my own, one Lorax Community’s in NYC) which were very helpful to me, but this one really blows them out of the water – especially from a raw vegan perspective. How so?...

Apple Cinnamon “Porridge”

This rather large, raw, & completely vegan brunch was so incredibly filling!  Also pictured here is some of the raw/vegan “butter” I recently shared on the blog, which has since been made by numerous readers & even described as “The Holy Grail of raw/vegan butter” by another blogger (who appears to be neither raw nor vegan). It had been years since having been able to utilise that recipe in any way (there’s little need for margarine or “butter” in a raw, largely...
