Bad, Very Bad.....but now Very Good!!


In my travels this week I had pasta and bread. Now that is BAD. Today, I woke up with my eyes puffy and my skin itchy and broken out. My body said "enough, no more". The only good part of this is that it is a reminder of how food affects us. I knew this would happen as it always does when I go this route, which is not often....very little. It was a bit of emotions, carelessness, stress of delays at airport, etc. Now I am settled in Bahia, Brazil for a few weeks with all it's wonderful, healthy fruits. I am getting back on track. Look at this beautiful fruit basket. The watermelon juice is all ready. Coconut water will be a daily ritual. Of course green smoothies too!

Coconut Water

So happy to be back in Brazil for a few weeks. I absolutely love coconut water. It is hydrating and is full of electrolytes. I plan to drink as much as possible while in Bahia.

Crepes

This recipe is worth having a dehyrator for. It is very easy to make and it is heavenly. Everyone will love it.
It is from Alissa Cohen's book, "Living on Live Food".

The crepe shells is made from blended bananas dehydrated.

Filling is macadamia and cashew nuts blended with other flavorings. The sauce is from strawberries.

It is so filling and can be a meal all on its own.

When mangoes are in abundance I will try it with mango sauce.
