Thursday’s Raw Recipe

“Cheesy” Stuffed Peppers

From the book EAT SMART EAT RAW

Trying new recipes has helped me to realize that I really don’t like food that is puree’d -like baby food. I know I have texture preferences. I hate pudding, I like to chew my food.  I like the taste of this recipe, just not the texture. So next time I will only blend up part of the ingredients and leave some to stir in.

13oz of corn (I used frozen-thawed, technically not raw, so this is a better recipe for summer time!)

1 1/2 carrots

small bunch of parsley

1 T ground flax seeds

2 T extra virgin olive oil

1 tsp miso

2 T nutritional yeast

1/2 tsp red chili

2 garlic cloves

1/2 onion

4 oz orange juice

2 large peppers

I put everything except the peppers and OJ into my Vita-mix. I puree’d all and then gradually added the OJ. Only use as much juice as you need to. You want this to be thick but no lumps. Fill the peppers.

OK so I would reserve some corn and parsley, onions,  chilis and maybe some of the pepper  to chop up and mix into the puree to add some crunch to the filling.

Cheesy stuffed peppers and kale salad Mmmmm!
