Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups of raw almonds
4 cups of filtered or spring water
3-5 dates (optional)
Directions:
1. Soak almonds in water for at least six hours.
2. Drain soaked almonds, and blend with 4 cups of fresh water until you get a milk-like consistency. Blend with dates if
you like your milk with a hint of sweetness.
3. Strain once to remove almond granules.
The result is a delicious, creamy milk that's free of added oils, concentrated sugars, and synthetic nutrients. This allnatural
almond milk keeps for 3-4 days in an air-tight jar in the refrigerator.
Please consider sharing this almond milk recipe with people who aren't aware of the many health problems associated
with eating pasteurized dairy products.
Please note that you should refer to your Doctor for advice.
EASY, FAST AND DELICIOUS RECIPE
Healthy Raw Muesli
You're allowed to experiment with different ingredientsfor variety, but here's a good basic recipe to work with:
1 cup organic rolled oats
1/2 cup organic rolled spelt
1/2 cup organic rolled triticale
1/2 cup organic rolled kamut or barley
1/4 cup chopped organic dates
1/4 cup organic raisins, currants, cherries, Goji berries, or cranberries
1 dried organic apricot or pear, chopped (roll in oat flour to prevent stickiness)
1/4 cup raw, whole, organic unblanched almonds
1/4 cup raw organic cashews8-10 organic raw filberts
4 organic raw pecans
In a blender or spice/nut grinder, grind filberts and pecans into coarse crumbs or powder, depending on preference.
Combine all ingredients in an airtight container.
For each serving, place a heaping 1/3 cup in a bowl and top with your favorite healthy liquid (nut milk, raw milk, juice, etc.)
You're not going to find a muesli or breakfast cereal at the supermarket that could touch this recipe with a thirty-foot pole,
believe me.
