Almond Blueberry Porridge (aka Purple Passion)

This is a great breakfast recipe from Living in the Raw by Rose Lee Calabro. It calls for 2 cups of coconut pulp. Well, I just wanted to use one coconut, a smallish one. It had nearly 3/4 cup of pulp, so I added 1 cup of soaked and sprouted oat groats to make up the room. I also didn't have fresh blueberries, so used frozen ones. I didn't garnish it and some sort of fruit garnish would have been a nice touch.

My husband also likes cacao, so I made the recipe, then poured out a small bowl of it then added a tablespoon of Wilderness Family Naturals Cacao Powder to the blender. I found I liked it best without the cacao. The cacao gave it a slight bitterness. I think it would be a great recipe to make and let sit an hour before eating, I think the flavors and texture will come together a bit more.

Is the cacao I used raw? It is labeled raw, but I think most of the "raw cacao" out there isn't truly raw by David Wolfe's definition. Truly raw cacao is NOT fermented. Almost all organic and raw cacaos are fermented. If you want to be sure you are getting raw cacao, I would get it from David Wolfe's Sunfood site or from the importer directly, Essential Living Foods.

I have dubbed this Purple Passion because of the fabulous color and also it satisfies some of the requirements for nutrients to replenish the sexual fluids, as per Sunfood Diet Success System by David Wolfe. I think the addition of soaked pumpkin seeds and olive oil would boost the passion-restoration part of this for men.

Men can replace sexual fluids by specifically eating nuts, seeds, wild coconuts, coconut oil, cacao (raw chocolate), maca root, seaweeds, avocados, olives and bee pollen

Almond Blueberry Porridge

1 cup almonds, soaked 12-48 hours
1 cup coconut water
2 cups young coconut pulp
1 cup fresh blueberries
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Combine the almonds and coconut water in a blender or a food processor fitted with the S blade and process until smooth and creamy. Add the coconut pulp, 3/4 cup of the blueberries, and the vanilla and process until smooth. Serve with the remaining blueberries as a garnish.

Medicine Juice to Cure What Ails You

My son had too many late nights and came home with a cold and flu symptoms. After a day or so, I made this juice from David Wolfe's book, Sunfood Diet Success System. I used small bok choy ribs and a ripe jalapeno I found at a Mexican grocery. There wasn't much juice but it seemed strong enough, so I split it into 3 shots (about 1.5 ounce each) and my husband and I each had one and I left one for Emrys to have when he got up.

Devon reported that Emrys was 100% better after just one shot! The second time I made it with bigger kale leaves and bigger bok choy and a ripe habanero. WOW! very strong stuff.

The most difficult thing is to find RIPE jalapenos. They are red when ripe. I haven't had any luck with trying to ripen them. I have tried put it in the sun and put it in a bag with a ripe banana. Any other ideas? Will have to grow my own next year.

David Wolfe says this stuff helps the lymphatic and immune system. It relieves swollen glands in the throat.

Medicine

1 ripe red jalapeno or ripe orange habanero pepper
5 ribs of bok choy
10 kale leaves
