Eating Well...a personal journey.

 Early on in my health crisis journey I had a question. How do I feed myself and my little family organic,mostly raw diet and keep to a descent budget and not have chefs that cook for me. Quickly I felt some responsibility for my health and family but I also knew it was possible without living so luxurious. All my mom friends would say the same story, " you have to be rich, or its too expensive, or I could never cook that way, I don't like to be in the kitchen. Well I knew it was part of my journey to figure this out and on my own for me and my family's health,I too didn't want to spend hours in the kitchen and had to stick to a budget. Through careful thought, meal planning, list making,I now know it is absolutely possible and even simple to shop, cook and eat this way.In response to my friends...I asked their budget for a family of 5 with a teenager that included maybe a supplement,organic raw foods,household items and a food storage item....the result was we had the same if not less budget a week. So I would gently say its possible and easy if you choose to feed you and your family this way.

Sat Nam, What ?

.What does Sat Nam Moma mean? Well, yes I am a mom hence Moma at the end. Sat Nam is sanskrit  Kundalini yoga mantra or chant that is usually done at the end of class. The reason this particular mantra rang in me is because I love its meaning. Sat means "TRUE or Truth" and Nam means "Name"...so together it means "True Self" or my name/identitiy is "Truth".  As long as I have lived I have quickly picked up or discerned when things or people feel a bit off or if they felt clear, genuine,pure or true. With any message or advice I have learned from others,from experience or living I hope to deliver or pass on only things I feel are right,pure or true. As you are embarking on your own personal learning experience or journey in life, I encourage all I meet to not just take advice but to pray, discern and think for themselves if it is right, pure or true for you. You will not fail if you follow this pattern first. I believe we are not ultimately in charge or in control of our life but when you acknowledge you can be led by a higher source first, that is when your life unfolds as it should.

Loves,

Sat Nam Moma

Pizza Raw Style

THIS RECIPE IS ANOTHER GREAT ONE OF MY MOTHERS, WE WILL BE USING OUR DEHYDRATOR THIS WEEK FOR THIS ONE:)eNJOY!

RAWSOME REDFORD PIZZA

By Shelley Redford Young 
Serves 6 
Anytime we can eat beautiful RAW food, we are increasing the electrical (electron) potential of our bodies which in turn will increase our energy reserves. I hope you will savor this wonderful adaptation from conventional acidifying pizza to the alkalizing properties of this 100% RAW Pizza. It is wonderfully filling and packed with calcium, magnesium, lycopene, protein, vitamins and minerals to make it a Perfect MEAL!!!! 

You will need a dehydrator to make the pizza crusts and a food processor to make the Almond Cheese, and the Rich Tomato Topping. If you make these all ahead, then assembly your Raw Redford Pizza will take hardly anytime at all!! ENJOY! 

Dehydrated Crust: 

I use the Excalibur dehydrator to make perfect crusts that can also double as great crackers or tostada flatties. 

• ½ cup ground flax seeds
• Water to cover ground flax seeds, approximately 1 cup
• 1 cup soaked raw almonds
• 2 cups soaked raw sunflower seeds
• 1 cup raw buckwheat ground
• ½ cup ground Deluxe Veggie Blend (Jaffe Bros. blend of dehydrated cubed carrots, onions, tomatoes, celery, parsley, green peas, and green bell peppers)
• 1 lemon juiced
• 1 clove garlic
• 4 Tbs. Olive Oil
• 1 level Tb. of Real Salt (or to taste)
• 2 Tbs. Spice Hunter Italian Pizza Seasoning
• 1 Tb. Spice Hunter Garlic Herb Bread Seasoning ¼-1/2 cup water to adjust consistency before spreading on dehydrator sheets

Instructions: 

1. Grind flax seeds to powder and place in a bowl with water, enough to cover over the flax powder. Stir ground flax seeds into water and let thicken while you work on the rest of the crust ingredients. Set aside. 

2. Rinse and drain soaked seeds and nuts and add them to your Cuisinart (food processor) with all the remaining ingredients. Mix well until you have a smooth thick paste consistency. You may have to stop and stir a few times to get this mix well blended. Adjust with water at the end until you have a good consistency that can be rolled out with a rolling pin or pressed in a tortilla press between two pieces of thick plastic. (I use the plastic bags that my Jaffe products come packaged in) 

3. Make pizza crust rounds the desired size. I like to make them smaller for individual size pizzas (5-7 inches in diameter). Once you get them pressed in between your plastic sheets, carefully peel down top plastic layer to expose the top side of the crust, then flip it over onto the dehydrator sheet and carefully peel down the remaining plastic sheet. (For the dehydrator, you can use a teflex sheet or I use the screened sheet with small holes in it to allow the crust to dehydrate on both sides evenly) Dehydrate the crusts overnight. 

Almond Cheese/Mayo 

This fluffy creamy spread is so concentrated and rich. Use it anywhere (wraps, pizzas, celery filling or where ever you would used mayonnaise) Quickly blanch the almonds to easily remove the brown skins. 

• 2 cups soaked almonds blanched (place in boiling water for 30 seconds, cool and pinch skins off. Discard skins)
• 1 lemon juiced
• ½ tsp.-1 tsp. Real Salt (to taste)
• ¼ cup olive oil (or oil of choice: Coconut, Udo's. Grapeseed)
• ¼ tsp. ground mustard
• ½ cup water
• ¼ tsp. Spice Hunter Café Sole Seasoning (mix of lemon, pepper, onion and sea salt)

Instructions: 

Place all wet ingredients into Cuisinart. With the Cuisinart running drop the blanched almonds through the top opening to blend well and emulsify to a thick fluffy consistency. Scrape sides and stir if needed. Adjust consistency with water if needed. Refrigerate mixture in an airtight container. 

Sauce for Pizza 

• 2 cartons/pkgs Cherry or Grape Tomatoes (or four regular tomatoes)
• 1 Tb. dried oregano (can use fresh if desired)
• ½ cup sun dried tomatoes (I use olive oil packed) 1/3 cup fresh Basil
• ½ tsp. Real Salt
• 1 clove garlic (remove middle section of clove to quiet odors)
• To thicken sauce use 1 tsp.-1 Tb. of psyllium seed husk

Place all ingredients into Cuisinart and pulse chop to chunky consistency. Set aside 

Toppings for Pizza 
Choose any of the following toppings to sprinkle over the top of the pizzas 

Shredded/julienne zucchini, carrots, jicama, Shredded cabbage, romaine lettuce, beets etc. Minced Raw Spinach or bell peppers 

Instructions: 
Place crust on counter and spread with a thick layer of Almond Cheese/Mayo. Spread a thick layer of Pizza Tomato Sauce over the Cheese Sprinkle toppings over the top and serve immediately. YUMMY!!!!!! 

Sauces will keep in the fridge for 3-5 days. Pizza Crusts will keep for up to two weeks if kept dry and cool.
