Ok..well I am about to start my next 50 days of detox. This time I am using the electric green cells and taking more wheat grass shots. I am going to start again in June so fam pray for me. I will be "free" !! any ways I am going to post some raw foods recipes. I need help trying to figure out what ingredients is safe for consumption during the detox. I don't want to eat just salads for 50 day. I will post different ones so please let me know if it is OK. Then I can start buying the items and putting them down to start during my cleanse. Here is the first one:
Living Lasagna Sunday, 22 March 2009 Description
This lasagna has multiple layers and a rich flavor that will tantalize your taste buds. A must try for everyone! Ingredients At a glance Entrées & Main Dishes Makes 4-6 people Tomato Sauce 2 cups sun dried tomatoes soaked for 6 hrs. 7 roma tomatoes 4 garlic gloves 1/2 tsp. salt 1 tbs. red or yellow onion 3 tbs. extra virgin olive oil 2 tbs. lemon juice 2 tsp. dried basil 1-2 tsp. dried oregano 1/2 tsp. dried thyme 1 tbs. agave nectar or 3 pitted dates
Mushroom layer 3-4 cups mushrooms (sliced) 3 tbs. or more of raw soy sauce or 1 tbs. miso and 2 tbs. water 2 tbs. olive oil
Noodle sheets & marinated veggies 4 zucchini
1/2 small onion sliced really thin 1 red bell pepper sliced really thin 1 yellow bell pepper sliced really thin 2 tbs. olive oil 2 tbs. lemon juice
Herb Ricotta Cheeze 1 cup raw Cashews 1/2 cup mac nuts 2 tbs. pine nuts 1/2 tsp. salt 2 tbs. lemon juice 1 tsp. fresh basil, dill, oregano, parsley, etc.. 1 cup and 2 tbs. of water, or less
1 cup spinach 1/2 cup chopped drained raw olives 1/2 cup fresh basil
Methods/steps How to tomato sauce: Blend everything together till smooth. Set aside.
How to mushrooms: Marinate mushrooms in the soy sauce for 2 hours. Drain and set aside.
How to noodle sheets and marinated veggies: Cut the zucchini on a mandolin into into wide, paper-thin slices. Set aside. Combine the onion and the bell pepper in a bowl with the oil, lemon juice and salt and let marinate for 16hrs in the fridge.
How to cheeze: Combine everything in a food processor and process till smooth. Add more water to give it a ricotta cheeze consistency, add less water if too watery. When smooth, put into a glass bowl, cover it with a moist terry cloth towel and set it out for 6 hrs. at room temp. After 6 hrs. keep it refrigerated till ready to use.
Making the lasagna: Put thin slices of the zucchini on the bottom of a glass lasagna pan. Top this layer with a thin layer of the ricotta cheeze, top the cheeze layer with a layer of mushrooms, then again the zucchini, top that layer with the tomato sauce, top the tomato sauce layer with a layer of the sliced onions, red and yellow peppers, top that with a layer of more zucchini slices, layer on top of that with more ricotta cheese, then top it with a layer of the spinach leaves, top that with mushrooms, and then some marinated sliced onions, red and yellow peppers, then again with the zucchini and then top the whole thing with the tomato sauce and garnish the top with chopped olives and fresh basil leaves. Now, cover (plastic wrap) the lasagna and place it into the fridge to set up, about 3-5 hours.
That's it! It looks kinda hard, but if you break it down, it's really easy. You and your family are worth it! Make it once or twice a week. Add marinated eggplant as one of the layers, or your favorite veggie. You can cut a piece and put it into the dehydrator so it will get warm and then serve it. Raw food doesn't have to be served cold. Enjoy!
