We love a kale salad, folks. That is especially true when pomegranate arils, pears, pecans, and and maple tahini dressing accompany nutritionally dense kale. You get a nice balance of sweet and tart flavors with varying textures. We are talking about sweet, tart, salty, nutty, and creamy and crunchy. And the maple tahini dressing ties everything together, making this the perfect kale salad for the holiday season.

This kale salad, as you can see in the picture, requires some serious chopping skills. Chopping the kale thinly helps break down the fibrous nature, which makes for a more enjoyable eating experience. Just make sure to remove the thick stems and massage the leaves prior to slicing the leaves thinly. That will really help to break down the fibrous texture. Additionally, the pears are cut into matchsticks, but you can cube them or slice them thinly. Whichever type of cut you prefer is the exactly the way to do it!

We love salads that have multiple textures and layers of flavor. What ties everything together, much like the rug in The Big Lebowski, is the creamy maple tahini dressing. The nutty tahini makes this dressing incredibly luxurious and you get a little zing from the apple cider vinegar and sweet hint of maple syrup. It is a dressing that you can enjoy not only on this salad, but on other salads also. If you find a salad that works with this dressing, be sure to reach out and lettuce (wink wink) know about it!

The fall and winter months invite colder temperatures, but you cannot enjoy a bowl of hot soup while cleansing. That is where this cold soup enters the equation. This isn’t your average bowl of gazpacho, though. This creamy raw vegan curry soup may only take five to 10 minutes to make, but it has the flavor of a soup that has been simmering for hours. It is quite filling and aromatic, making for a nice change from a standard salad or smoothie.

Besides having an addictively creamy texture and robust flavor, this raw soup is not green for a change. Made with freshly made carrot juice, tahini, homemade almond milk, tomato, lemon juice, avocado, and zucchini, this soup can be a light meal or side dish. What makes this soup creamy is the avocado, tahini, and homemade almond milk. Click here to make the almond milk, but consider omitting the dates, maple syrup, or vanilla extract that the recipe calls for. You don’t want those maple and vanilla flavors mixing with the other spices and ingredients in this soup.

People have an idea of which recipes tahini belongs to. Believe it or not, tahini is not solely reserved for dressings, hummus, and other dips or sauces. Tahini has a place in desserts, providing an earthy nuttiness that complements sweeter ingredients, such as dates, maple syrup, or agave. Some people regularly make tahini fudge! When you mix tahini with dates, however, you get an incredibly nourishing, filling treat. That ingredient combination is almost like a raw vegan version of salted caramel. Plus, that duo provides lots of fiber, potassium, and magnesium, all of which help the body function optimally.

One of the reasons why you’ll love this recipe is because of its simplicity. It comes together in a matter of minutes and it’s packed with natural sweetness. You get a hint of bitterness from the raw cacao powder, in addition to a surprising amount of nutrition. Just one tablespoon of raw cacao powder contains the following nutritional profile:

• 2 grams (g) of fat
• 29 calories
• 1 g of protein
• 2 g carbohydrates
• 11% of the daily value (DV) of fiber
• 5% of the DV of vitamin D
• 5% of the DV of potassium
• 1% of the DV of iron
• 1% of the DV of calcium

For the dates, we recommend that you go with Medjool dates, as they are generally bigger and have more of a caramel-like texture and flavor. They can be harder to find, depending on where you are, so you can replace them with regular dates if you cannot locate Medjools. If you cannot find Medjool dates, use two regular dates for every one Medjool date. Finally, if the dates are not soft, you can soak them in warm water for about 10 minutes before blending. Just make sure to discard the soaking liquid.

This recipe is just one of those recipes, folks. It is so refreshing, filling, and will make your raw vegan diet experience that much more exciting. Considering cauliflower is not a vegetable that you would usually eat raw, this recipe helps you overcome that hurdle. It shows you how versatile it can be. To get the cauliflower just right, roughly chop it into florets and toss them into a food processor to pulse until you achieve a rice-like consistency. You do not want to blend the cauliflower into a puree. If you have access to health food stores, you may be able to find bagged cauliflower rice. You can have it, provided the cauliflower is not cooked and there are no added preservatives.

Because this recipe uses cauliflower, it is a low-carb version to the traditional side dish. Besides being lower in carbs than bulgur wheat, cauliflower is rich in an assortment of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. For reference, one cup of cauliflower contains the following nutritional profile:

• 25 calories
• 5 grams (g) of fat
• 2 g of fiber
• 57% of the daily value (DV) of vitamin C
• 14% of the DV of vitamin K
• 12% of the DV of vitamin B6
• 7% of the DV of potassium
• 9% of the DV of choline
• 15% of the DV of folate
• 4% of the DV of magnesium
• 14% of the DV of vitamin B5

This is also served with crunchy romaine, butter lettuce, or cabbage leaves to enjoy as cups. It takes the classic side and turns it into a uniquely filling raw vegan entree. Plus, the almond tahini sauce makes it slightly different than your average recipe, which usually calls for olive oil and lemon juice. The tahini dressing makes this cauliflower tabbouleh much creamier and richer, and we hope you like it as much as we do.

As the days get a little shorter and the air becomes slightly cooler, you need to comfort the soul with healthy and delicious breakfasts. That doesn’t mean you should enjoy eggs, bacon, and toast every morning. As hearty as that breakfast sounds, it is far from the best idea if your goal is to watch your weight, optimize digestion, and stay full until the next meal. 

Both chia pudding and overnight oats are perfect solutions for busy mornings. Not only are they rich in flavors and nutrients, but they are also highly convenient. Prep your overnight oats or chia pudding at night, place in the fridge, and pull the jar out in the morning. If you want to get a little fancy, feel free to add some fresh toppings to your oats or pudding in the morning. That’s entirely up to you, though. 

What we can say for certain is that overnight oats and chia pudding can eliminate breakfast prep time from your morning to-do list! The recipes in this article are not your average chia pudding and overnight oat recipes. We’ve put a fall spin on each of them, infusing the cozy essence of autumn. Please enjoy them!

A happy life is a healthy life. Feeding your body foods that provide optimal nourishment to encourage the optimal function of all systems and organs is truly a gift. When you eat the right foods, you feel a whole lot better. That doesn’t mean you cannot cheat a little here and there and indulge in some unhealthy options. If you find that you have been eating a little unhealthier, though, switch it up and make yourself a refreshing raw salad like this kale cranberry almond salad. It contains fiber, protein, magnesium, vitamin C, antioxidants, and other beneficial vitamins and minerals.

Kale is a superfood, but it’s not the only ingredient that brings a super nutritional profile to this salad. As the other leafy green base, you have romaine lettuce, which is an excellent source of vitamin K, folate, beta-carotene, vitamin C, calcium, and potassium. The avocado also provides magnesium and potassium, in addition to healthy fats, folate, fiber, and more. Along with their low sodium levels, avocados do not contain any cholesterol, making them great heart-healthy foods.

When you enjoy this kale salad, not only will you feel good about yourself, but you’ll also get to enjoy varying textures and flavors. Although the kale can be slightly bitter, you don’t taste it because the dried cranberries offer sweetness and almonds provide nuttiness. Avocados don’t offer specific flavor, but they do offer a textural difference from all the crunch in this salad. Finally, you get the zesty dressing that also provides some creaminess, thanks to the tahini.

Allow us to introduce you to a game-changing slaw recipe: the lemon tahini cabbage slaw. Unlike traditional coleslaw recipes, this slaw is not smothered in a mayonnaise-rich dressing. Instead, a luxurious, creamy tahini dressing that has lovely zest from the lemon coats the cabbage, carrots, and green onions. Although we encourage you to cut up the cabbage and carrots yourself, you can use a bag of coleslaw mix. Just make sure that it doesn’t contain candied nuts or sugary dried fruit, and that you don’t use dressing if it comes with a packet.

This creamy, tangy, and crunchy slaw is loaded with nutrients that’ll make you feel like a health superstar. Both cabbage and lemon are excellent sources of vitamin C and antioxidants. Cabbage also provides vitamin K and fiber, which is prebiotic fiber that encourages the growth of healthy gut bacteria. Tahini also works to feed the good bacteria in the gut to help it run smoothly. Additionally, tahini is a great source of healthy fats, protein, and calcium. 

It’s nice to have a recipe in your arsenal that you can make in a pinch. You know that the flavors will hit and impress your taste buds every time because let’s be real: nobody wants to eat poor-tasting salad. And if you truly enjoy a classically creamy slaw, this recipe meets you halfway. The tahini provides a lovely creaminess to the dressing, which exhibits bright notes that complement the slaw ingredients. This truly has a depth of flavor that you don’t normally get from a slaw!

One of the most common things that people crave during the raw vegan diet, besides hot food, is the ability to use condiments freely. Because you cannot reach into the pantry or fridge to pull out your favorite hot sauce, ketchup, or other condiment, you have to make your own. If you make your own condiments, not only are they much healthier, but they also taste better.

That’s how we feel about this spicy tahini sauce, which exhibits bold and spicy flavors. It works great as a dip for raw vegetables, salad dressing (if you can handle the heat), and even a sauce for raw vegan tacos. Plus, this sauce is gluten-free, dairy-free, and 100% raw vegan, making it a great option for people with dietary restrictions. This tahini sauce only contains six ingredients, and none of them are processed. Unlike a bottled hot sauce, this sauce does not contain unhealthy fats, artificial flavors, or dyes.

Because this sauce is so versatile, you can use it several different ways, which is critical on a raw vegan diet. For example, drizzle it over zucchini noodles to make a spicy zoodle pasta. Add a little more water if you want to use it as an oil-free salad dressing. If you want to alter the spices, it can transform into a raw tahini Caesar dressing. There is truly no limit to what you can do with this condiment!

Can you imagine a world without orange juice and lemonade? Sure, the appeal goes beyond these citrus beverages, but that is usually where your love for citrus fruits begins. After these drinks ignite your passion for citrus, you begin to experiment with other flavors and citrus fruits in various recipes. Because citrus straddles the sweet and tart line, you can use citrus fruits in both sweet and savory applications. 

As a food category, citrus is very diverse and includes varieties of oranges, limes, lemons, tangerines, grapefruit, pomelo, and yuzu, among others. Citrus fruits account for 14% of fresh fruit consumption by Americans, according to the Farm Bureau. Oranges rank just below apples, bananas, and melons as the most commonly consumed fruits in the United States. In fact, most people would find it difficult to live without citrus!

Historically, British sailors who attempted voyages without citrus usually developed scurvy, due to lack of vitamin C. Although not the only vitamin C-rich foods, citrus fruits are some of the most popular to enjoy, with one orange containing more than 50 milligrams (mg) of vitamin C. This nutrient functions as an antioxidant and aids immune function, which is vital during cold and flu season. Keep your vitamin C intake up with the following citrus=themed recipes!
