Today’s lunch menu is all about flavor, people! If your lunches have been a little ‘meh’ lately, here’s some inspiration. It’s time to wake those tastebuds up!

Start off with a bowl of fiery chili accompanied by some oh-so-delectable raw bread (yes, there is such a thing!). Next up: salad! Treat yourself to a colourful Fiesta salad, or toss a green salad with a red pepper dressing for maximum ‘yum’ factor!

Raw Chili

raw2chiliThis hearty Raw Chili packs a flavor punch. The surprise ingredient: walnuts! Tomatoes, celery and carrots (and chili powder, of course!) also feature in this must-try recipe.

If you used to love chili in the ‘old’ days, you’ll adore this raw vegan alternative!

 

 

 Raw Bread – Moist Spongy Loaves

raw3breadThinking you need a chunk of fresh bread to go with that chili? Well, this Moist Spongy Loaves recipe has come to your rescue! Soft, supple and scrumptious, and no, I’m not exaggerating!

Psyllium husk is what gives this bread its spongy texture.

 

 


Raw Fiesta Salad

raw4saladSummer is the best time to enjoy this colorful Raw Fiesta Salad. Fresh corn is what makes this salad pop, along with cherry tomatoes, onions and basil.

To easily remove corn niblets: remove outer husk, snap corn cob in half with your hands, place vertically on cutting board and slice downwards.

 

 

Raw Red Pepper Dressing

Fresh ginger adds pizzazz but is optional.

 

 

Lunch-time, here we come!

You don’t have to hit a restaurant to eat scrumptious, snazzy meals like this. With these simple recipes, you can jazz up lunch time like a pro. It’s good to rock the raw lunch boat on occasion, don’t you think?

Laura-Jane is The Rawtarian,raw a passionate raw vegan. What is a “raw vegan?” A raw vegan is someone who eats only raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds–none of which are ever heated above 105F (40.6 Celsius). That’s it. Raw vegan recipes include cookies, brownies, cakes, crackers, macaroni and cheese, cheesecake, and more. All made from fruit, vegetables, seeds, and nuts. No bread products, no dairy products, just raw, natural ingredients! There is a whole movement of “raw vegans” (or “raw fooders”) who invent and share creative raw food recipes. Raw vegans prepare recipes using blenders and food processors instead of ovens and microwaves! ”Like” The Rawtarian on Facebook, and visit her for more great recipe ideas at therawtarian.com
