100% Raw, Vegan *Sunflower Salmon Spread*

[313HealthyMe]

I just want to thank you for this vid. I am new to the raw food lifestyle and am collecting as much info as possible. Now if I could only find a good "Raw Potato chip" recipe for my chip addiction...hahahah

[MyOwnStickFigure]

Welcome, and best of luck to you. Ps. People sweat by those seasoned dehydrated kale chips - check them out. People literally fall in love with them.

[313HealthyMe]

I actually tried those but I believe I may have seasoned them wayyyyy too much! I will have to try them again soon.

Glad to find raw youtube! and something good to do with those nutritious, ubiquitous but not too tasty sunflower seeds....

[jojobee42]

Looks great! Would've loved to see you prepare it though. :)

[insidethemusicbox11]

i agree. you should have a cooking show. or you could just fly to my place and cook me some yummy food :)

[hipslikemonroe]

Ahh my J princess, get your own cooking show already! <3

[MyOwnStickFigure]

only if all of you come join me for an audience who can sample my creations! if so, i'll cook in fuck me pumps and an cute bettiebaker style bend me over apron

i'm horrid, just flippen wretchid

[peppernme]

I love the completed creation. So good to look at and I bet it tasted great too. Was this your own original recipe or did you get it from a book? Do you record your recipes?

[MyOwnStickFigure]

Thanks Lemon - So listen, here's my deal. I take basic recipes, like a base right and then I go by my taste buds and eleborate them. I think this is how most raw foodists start. You gotta start somewhere. Here's an analogy: It's like flour for bread, the base ingredient, and then you add a crap load of your own goodness!!! I don't generally write them down and I don't measure much, I must guess for these videos!

[qweengrape]

yippe yay! I love your videos. AND... i am getting super excited about the quinoa vid :)

thanks luv,

Mmmm! The end dish looks simply delish and lovely!

[DivaMakeup]

I'm definitely going to have to get a food processor and a juicer. I think it will make the transition to a full vegan diet much easier.

Thanks for the recipe, sweetie!

I loved salmon when I was a preteen-haven't eaten it since then when I started giving up meat etc.

Is it possible to substitute anything for the seaweed? I grew up on the beach so the thought of eating seaweed doesn't apppeal to me. LOL But perhaps that is what gives it the fishy flavor? :P

Ooooh-I hope you're posting that raw cheesecake recipe. HINT HINT! :D

(No pressure tho....)

:-*

[xamia]

*drools* that looks soo good! Can't wait to try it!

[theskinnypig]

I love your final presentation of this salad! So pretty... mmmm! Do you soak the sunflower seeds to release the enzyme inhibitors, or use them dry?

[MyOwnStickFigure]

To make flour I never soak them only because it wouldn't make the flour dry how I need it. See I ground these raw in a coffee grinder today... spur of the moment thing. Lately I just have to go by cravings and I hate waiting because my orthorexia freaks out about oxidation/etc. If I wanted a more wet base then I could of soaked them... got cashews soaking now though for that raw cheesecake I plan to make this weekend!!!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

shit i hate how yt limits comment space, i was trying to say: I found a little goodie for you today, tiny little thought, can't wait to mail it out to ya! Ps. This salmon spread would be killer in nori with mung, sushi power!!!

[theskinnypig]

yay!!! mail for me! lol! I bet this salmon spread would be fantastic in nori with sprouted mung beans.... I should try it out tomorrow. I'm eating mung bean sprouts with blueberries, cinnamon and agave right now!! So tasty!!!

I will, I am really pressed on time today so I had to do this and create the video text while eating. I'm off to therapy now. I will be doing a sit down blog this weekend for a friend, on the topic of a super grain = quoina! These recipes keep getting better though and I'm eating more and more without guilt and shame so I'm very eager to share them with others!!

[theenchantedkitty]

I love guoina, but isnt it not raw? or do you sprout it or something? Is that possible? I just have the dried grain.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

Quoina is raw, it's a grain. Grains are always raw unless they are treated/cooked/toasted. To continue it's life force you would soak it and sprout it, it then becomes a LIVING raw food! even better!

[theenchantedkitty]

You explained it well. Thank you. Wasnt sure if "raw" meant only sprouted, because of the life force in it, but I get it.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

Btw. you mentioned dried grain --- dehydrating (drying) keeps things raw by restoring their life force. Think of it as the most natural way to preserve things. Dehydrators are most raw foodist best friends! I own one but rarely use it. I like to eat things as freshly made as possible.

[theenchantedkitty]

I am looking for a least expensive dehydrator. NOt least in quality tho. I am on the hunt. Thanks for the info:)

[beingsarah]

I hope i didn't offend you.

I agree with the delicious recipes you are coming up with - i wish i could be as creative as you.

..as for guilt free eating, that is wonderful to read. Its the way forward in your recovery.

[MyOwnStickFigure]

No, you didn't offend me. It just gave me an oppurtunity to eleborate better on why I put a lot of focus in this vid-blog on raw foods and their healing properties!

[galaxycat3]

u do not know how much i appreciate your videos :)

[MyOwnStickFigure]

You are so sweet. I know you've been down lately. Are things looking up at all?

[galaxycat3]

sometime i feel okay, but sometimes not thanks for asking.. i am trying to focus upon studying but honestly people on youtube - forthe most part- have been excellent - i have not left my flat for any extended period of time for the past 2 weeks ie i simply cannot deal with going out as i feel that people are laughing at me.. i know it is irrational but i prize youtube because i have so many people with whom i can connect and who do not make me feel like a freak and do not laugh at me..

[theenchantedkitty]

wooo, these flavors sound sooo nice!

[MyOwnStickFigure]

You have to try it, seriously, it was so addicting!!!
