Portobello Pizza

Okay I used this recipe, and from there tweaked it to my liking. http://friendseat.com/Raw-Portobello-Mushroom-Pizza-Recipe
My little brother, -who detests anything healthy- saw this, and seeing how it actually looked like pizza, decided to give it a try. Praise the heavens!, he utterly loved it. I gladly gave him the better portion of my hard earned dinner.
On another note, the Mushrooms can get a bit pricey.. so if you are not feeling the splurge, I would suggest a homemade flax crust instead...still ochen vkusna (that means 'very tasty' in russian!). Though not necessarily visually stunning like certain fruits, the humble mushroom deserves a big hug. Mushrooms are among the most medicinal of all foods; no matter what the disease, chances are that there is a mushroom that can help prevent or treat it.
Its a FUNGUS!?--crazily, its an organism that grows without seeds, leaves, flower or even roots. They are an excellent source of protein, fiber, vitamin C, B vitamins (a vegetarian must), calcium and minerals. About 50 of the species are poisenous.
Then there are the medicinal mushrooms, comprising another 50 species. These nutritional powerhouses have been found to:
*Protect heart health *Lower the risk of cancer *Boost immune function *Reduce high cholesterol *Fight off viruses, bacteria and fungi *Reduce inflamation *Combat allergies *Help balance blood sugar levels *Support the body's detoxification mechanisms *Help fight blood clots
Their nutritional prowess has been known for centuries. Ancient Egyptians and Asians used mushrooms to create a sacred longevity tonic, and the 5,000-year-old "Ice Man" found in Europe was found with dried mushrooms in his medicine kit.

Cacao Krispie Treats

DESSERT THATS GOOD FOR YOU??! HUH???! GET THAT INTO MY LIFE!!!
~Cacao was used by ancien civilizations as currency and was seen as a 'food for the gods.' The medicinal value of Cacao lies in its ablility to treat patients with a variety of disease. Improving digestion, stimulates kidney and bowel function, and to name a few-aids recovery from anemia, fatige, fever, low sex drive, poor appetite, and low breast milk production.~

Meh...who measures anyways???

*Real Vanilla
*Cacao Powder
*Honey/Agave Nectar/Maple Syrup (I combine for an all around sweetness)
*Salt (just a dash!)
*Soaked-then-Dehydrated Buckwheat Grouts (I make these in bulk to keep on hand..cause honestly they keep for infinity, and you can put them in eeeeverything! -granola bars, cereal, salads, etc)
--Other fun additions can be Carob Powder, Cacao Nibs, Cocoa Powder, Dried Blueberries...la la la possibilities are endless! You just gotta give it a go!
Also, you can delete the Buckwheat Grouts and have a simple chocolate bliss to enjoy...Mmmm!

Monsieur Kidney

The urinary tract--which pumps, filters, and eliminates the more than 60 quarts of fluid that pass through normal kidneys in a single day. Of the 60 quarts of fluid that are extracted by the kidneys each 24 hours, approximately two quarts are eliminated as urine; the rest is filtered and returned to the bloodstream for circulation throughout the body. The kidneys--each containing two to four million filter mechanisms--filter approximately a quart of blood every minute. That means all the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every seven minutes. To accomplish this task, the kidneys need to be in premium health.
