Orange Cascadilla Soup
(orange bell pepper, yellow tomato, cucumber, scallion, avocado, sea salt, pepper, topped with cilantro)

Corn Chips and Cashew Cheese


More raw food -- when the produce is this fresh, you just try to stay out of the way of it ;)



Raw Corn Tortilla (makes four shells)

2 ears of corn (about a 1 1/2 cups)
1 tbs. olive oil
1 tbs. ground flax seeds
1 tbs. lime juice
1 tsp. ground cumin seeds
1 tsp. mexican oregano
1 clove of garlic
salt and pepper to taste


Puree all the ingredients in the the Vita-mix, let sit for 15 minutes.

Pour onto the teflex sheets about 1/8" thick, you should be able to get 4 per sheet.

Dehydrate at 115F for 2-3 hours, flip and dehydrate for another 2 hours.

They should still be pretty flexible at this point. Add your filling and roll the enchiladas, top with the Tomatillo Sauce.

Tomatillo Sauce

2 medium tomatillos
1 small jalapeno
1/4 cup of cilantro
1 garlic clove
salt and pepper to taste

Add all the ingredients into the vita-mix and either puree or pulse to leave it slightly chunky... make this as close to serving as possible -- it doesn't last too long. check for seasoning and pour over the enchiladas.
