Raw Fusion, Vegan, Gluten/Grain-Free, Paleo-Friendly When I first heard about “sweet potato toast” from a raw foods colleague, I was super intrigued. One of my weak spots in maintaining a raw fusion (50% and higher raw on a daily basis) is my love affair with toast and butter. But I am finally at the point […]
Pumpkin Fig Smoothie
Raw Fusion, Gluten/Grain-Free, Paleo-Friendly Since I started creating Raw Fusion recipes (2009) I’ve traditionally concocted Pumpkin-based delights every year. You can find most of them on this page. This year we are so busy with the launch of several brand new certifications but I wanted to keep the tradition alive, so I went for simple. […]
Sweet Sesame Korean Cucumbers
Contributed by Sherry Matthews, Candidate for the Holistic Health & Life Coaching Certification for our HWCA Sister Academy, Candidate for the CBD/Cannabis Coaching Certification and Social Media Manager for NWA. Raw, Vegan, Paleo, Gluten-Free I love Korean food! Besides their tantalizing BBQ, I absolutely love eating all the tiny saucers of “banchan” or side dishes […]
Omega Boost Grain-Free Muffins
Vegetarian & Vegan Versions – Paleo-Friendly I don’t eat as much much raw food as I did back when I was healing from my auto-immune disorder, but I have been paying a lot of attention lately to my digestion, which frankly needs some adjusting. Something that I have definitely pinpointed is that grains aggravate symptoms […]
Weekend (Raw) Pizza Party
Raw, Vegan, Grain & Gluten Free Since we are back on the 21 Days Raw Foods Challenge I’ve been experimenting with making wraps, crusts and breads that are grain-free. As much as I crave my gluten-free bread, I suspect that grains are not helping my digestion, even when they are gluten-free. I’m still not sure […]
Pass the Paté , Pretty Please
Nut spreads and patés are foundational to sustaining a high raw and/or vegan lifestyle. Prounouced “pah-tay”, they are loaded with protein, good fats and have the unctuousness of something very rich and satisfying. They are also very filling — if you are trying to eat more raw and living foods, but find yourself getting hungry […]

Pumpkin Mac N’ Cheeze – Vegan & Gluten-Free
A video has popped up several times on my Facebook feed for a vegan mac n’ cheese, depicting a “cheesy vortex” created from mixing raw cashews with water that has been boiled with potatoes, carrots and onion. I was intrigued enough to consider trying the recipe but had the inspiration to add some pumpkin as […]
Fall Mediterranean Chopped Salad
Raw, Vegan, Gluten/Grain Free This makes a great main meal salad. My favorite salads are the chopped variety. I love the fruits and vegetables that become available at this harvest time of year and added pomegranate kernels this time. The first time I experimented with this salad, I chopped a starfruit into it. You can […]
Chickpea “Crab” Cakes With Sweet Wasabi Mayo
Vegan & Gluten-Free w/ Raw Fusion Options I recently posed a plant-based meal challenge to students of our Natural Wellness Academy: The idea was to either create or redesign a recipe using tips and techniques they have learned in the Holistic Health and Raw Fusion areas of the course. The aim of this endeavor is […]
