Last day of the raw food diet, went to Rawlicious tonight. How did it compare to Live Raw Food Bar we had on Tuesday? It was comparable but I personally liked Live better. Here is what we had:
Rawlicious:
* Nori Rolls – sprouted quinoa, marinated mushrooms, avocado & fresh vegetables
YUM, this was SOOO good, the best dish we had here.
* Nacho Platter – the classic trio of Guacamole, “Sour Cream” & Salsa served with sliced green olives, green onions, hot banana peppers & a pile of Rawlicious Nacho Chips
This was good but the one at Live so much better.
* Warm Pizza – Our daily special pizza served on a warm sprouted Buckwheat Crust "ours had tomato puree, tomato slices, red onions, olives, zucchini
This was really tasty, the tomato flavour was so rich.
* Rawitch – Fresh veggies & sprouts, piled high on Earth Bread or Onion Bread
Also really good, the sprouts were just great with guacamole and fresh tomatoes.
* Drink was Chocolate Nut Milk – Almond Milk, Raw Cacao Powder, Agave, Vanilla
Milo/Ovaltine like, it was ok, nothing out of the ordinary.
* Dessert was Brownie
Tasted yumm but we couldn't finish it, we were so full!
Live Raw Food Bar:
* Poutine - Jicama makes up the “fries” of this mouth watering dish.Topped with a cashew herbed “cheese” and miso gravy
My fav dish here but not Amanda's, she didn't like the crunchyness of the "fries", the gravy and "cheese" really made the dish, the mix of flavours and textures were amazing, chapeau Chef!
* Nachos Fiesta - Our famous corn “chips” served with salsa verde, guacamole and cashew sour cream
The salsa, guac and cashew sour cream beats out Rawlicious hands down and THE CHIPS, wow, we bought another bag after to bring home, yes, it was THAT good"
* The main was a mix of four items Spring Roll, Pad Thai, Lasagna and Pizza slice
Everything was yumm, sounds like lots of food but the portions were perfect to be enjoyed.
* Dessert
Amanda's favorite cake EVER, ya, she said that and the cake wasn't even baked nor did it have flour. RICH chocolate cake make with avacado, agave and nuts.
K, basically after listing the foods we had at the two raw restaurants, what does this mean? Well, I definitely feel better, Amanda is sleeping better and less tired. It all makes sense doesn't it?! Raw and even cooked vegetables are what our body needs. Stop with the protein BS about meat. I'm not forcing no meat upon people, hell I eat seafood still. I'm just saying you must learn about what you're eating and putting into your body. Educate yourself and stop living off what's on sale this week in the flyer and oh what's convenient and quick BS
