Autum Begins with Curried Yam Bisque

Hello Everyone

This Hearty winter soup comes from the book "Living on Live Food" by Alissa Cohen.
It is needed for a rainy damp day like today.

CURRIED YAM BISQUE

1 cup of yam
1 1/2 cups cashew milk (cashews and water with honey or date to sweeten)
1/2 cup green apple
1 teaspoon mint
1 teaspoon curry (or less)

Blend all in blender or Vita-Mix
Enjoy!

Note: Raw Foods are very flavor-able. The taste of the food comes to life and the spices enhances the food. When cooking, heat is applied to foods the spices become the main flavor and the taste of the food becomes hidden. For example, I remember cooking and adding two whole bulbs of garlic just to taste the flavor of garlic. In Raw Foods one clove of garlic does the trick.


I was asked the question, "So what is that diet you're on again"?
Those two little words -'That diet"phrase is part of our way of eating. In the past I couldn't go a week without mentioning "that diet". I'm glad it is finally out of my vocabulary. I only associated "that diet" word with "sacrifice". It meant giving up all that was pleasantly delicious in my life and suffer for a few weeks for a specific weight goal. Then when I achieved that specific weight goal, I stopped by celebrating with the pleasantly delicious foods and hoped I wouldn't gain more weight than before. I couldn't see the vicious cycle.
Living this Lifestyle is a wonderful "gift". It is not "sacrificial". I'm very satisfied ! I have gained appreciation for the health that was returned to me. I never want to stop.
