Breakfast
Carob Hemp Smoothie
serves 1 ~ $2.62 per serving
3 tablespoons nutiva hemp protein powder 50% ($1.13)
3 tablespoons nutiva hemp seeds ($1.17)
1 banana ($.15)
2 tablespoons carob powder ($.17)
12 ice cubes
water for blending
The folks over at Nutiva
were kind enough to send me some of their hemp seed and hemp protein
products to try. The timing couldn’t have been better. I’ve been quite
light on protein a lot of days lately, so I was looking for ways to
get just a bit more.

I’m
a big fan of Nutiva, having used their coconut oil for years. Every
product I’ve ever tried has been exceptionally fresh and delicious. I’m
a bit of a newcomer to protein powders and was surprised this tasted
to good. The powder isn’t terribly gritty and makes a pretty smooth
smoothie. The hemp seeds blend right up as well.

smoothies is super simple to make and has a fresh, nutty, almost
spicy taste. A perfect start to the day. Just put all ingredients in
blender and puree until very smooth.

First make the pine nut cheese, which is simple and easy. Just add all ingredients to a blender and puree until very smooth.
Assemble
the sliced ingredients and layer with a few dollops of pine nut
cheese. Season with herbs, salt and pepper. Drizzle with a bit of red
pepper flake oil or olive oil.

To
make red pepper flake oil, just add a tablespoon or two red pepper
flakes and a dash of cayenne to about four ounces olive oil. Shake or
blend and then let sit for a few days until the flavor develops.

Dinner
Kale Salad
serves 2 ~ $2.35 per serving
1 bunch kale ($1.49)
1 small head broccoli ($.1.29)
1 bunch lamb’s quarters
2 tablespoons olive oil ($.20)
2 tablespoons agave or other sweetener ($.20)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar ($.20)
2 cloves garlic, pressed
2 tomatoes, cut into wedges ($1.00)
1 cucumber, sliced ($.33)
salt and pepper to taste
I got the idea to massage the greens inside a plastic bag from Rawdawg Rory. It seemed like a handy way to keep from getting my hands messy, and it worked like a charm.
Chop
kale, broccoli, and lambs quarters. In a small cup, whisk together
the olive oil, agave, balsamic vinegar, and garlic. Put in a in a zip
lock bag and massage. It takes several minutes, but the kale and
broccoli will soften up nicely.

Serve the massaged greens topped with slice cucumber and tomato wedges. Salt and pepper to taste.
And, any left over greens or broccoli (including the stems) can be juiced.

wow lunch looks terrific! it always amazes me how you can stretch 10 bucks so deliciously! 🙂
Oh Hemp!!! The overt fat that I love! My fats are limited to less than 7-8% so I choose wisely and I go for either hemp, chia or fresh flax seeds. I am very excited to try your wonderful recepies yet again. Your lasagna is stunning and I love the simplicity. Some raw lasagna recipes make me tired just reading them; your's is doable for sure.
The hemp balls will flip the kiddos out–look sooo yummy.
Peace and Raw Health,
