I have been blogging a lot more lately. Maybe it's boredom, or maybe it's all the yummy dishes I have been making! Who knows! Anyway, we are suppose to have a beautiful weekend here, I am so excited. I'll take 50 degrees over 18 any day!
Here's something I made for dinner the other night. High raw burritos! I wrapped avocado, scallions, red pepper, cherry tomatoes and some cooked wild rice in collard leaves and made burritos. Then as a side dish I used the rest of the wild rice and added the left over raw veggies for some crunch. Not totally raw, but I was aiming for high raw.
Here's a picture of one of the wraps. I didn't add rice to every wrap, just a couple. They were so filling and delicious. I just love raw Mexican food... who am I kidding? I love ALL vegan Mexican food!
Yesterday I made a kale salad for lunch. I added the left over raw veggies from the night before, some avocado, lemon, and sun dried tomatoes. So amazing!! I am obsessed with massaged kale salads. You can do whatever you want with it, it always comes out amazing!
My juice of the day yesterday: 1 apple, 1 lemon, 1/2 a cucumber, and collards. Nice and tart. So refreshing and detoxifying. 
Last night I made my only cooked meal of the week. It was suppose to be a kale salad on the side, but the last of my kale looked a little wilted. Not very appetizing. So instead I defrosted a soup I made a few months back and added some of the kale to it (it was fine as long as I cooked it, it was in no shape to be eaten raw). On the side I made green beans with almonds sauteed in olive oil and garlic. Yum!
I am looking forward to the weekend and will have lots of food to post when I get back from my in laws. Stay tuned and have a wonderful positive weekend everyone!

Those wraps look amazing. I am sooo craving collards. Funny. Love that I am craving collards.
I also defrosted soup last night for dinner.
Ooh, the burritos look awesome! I love Mexican food too.
looks great. i just finished my high raw week and i feel great! i did break down with some chips and salsa last night... but it was friday, so i forgive myself. :)
i think i will be enjoyng a glass of that green juice for breakfast!
i'm still trying to convince myself to try green smoothies/juice. that juice you made is almost going to convince me that they might actually taste good :)
Love that you rocked the SNL bit, that was one of my favs! You have motivated me to go and buy some kale! It all looks so good! Thanks!
