How To Make Juice With A Blender, Ep76

September 21st, 2009 Natasha St. Michael 2 comments

I’ve been receiving a lot of emails asking me all sorts of questions about the upcoming Juice Feast we’ll be doing at the beginning of October. One question in particular that many people are asking is if it’s possible to join the Juice Feast, even if you don’t have a juicer! And my answer is YES!!!

If you have a blender and a nut milk bag, you can make fresh juice– green juice, vegetable juice and fruit juice– no problem!

So check out today’s video on how to make juice with a blender, and also I give you a few tips as well on how to do the juice feast on a budget. Juice feasting is about health, happiness and fun– there is no need to worry about affording the produce for the juices– there is always a way of finding and using cheap greens, vegetables & fruit– you just have to be creative and resourceful!!

Healthy Low-Fat Salad Recipe, Ep52

August 17th, 2009 Natasha St. Michael 4 comments

To get the most out of the Raw Food Diet, you need to eat plenty of greens. The best way to get greens into your diet is through salads, but your salads have to be tasty in order for you to want to come back for more. My suggestion to everyone is to know how to make a few delicious salad dressings that you can either whip up in a matter of minutes or that you can make a big batch and store it in a glass jar in your refrigerator for a week– then whenever you’re hungry, you can prepare a fabulous salad in just minutes!!! Whatever you do, please stay away from any store-bought salad dressings, they are full of many unwanted ingredients including sugar, trans-fats, msg, chemicals, preservatives, artificial flavors, fillers, etc..

So, today I share with you my absolute favorite salad. I have this salad almost every single day!!! Its easy, low in fat, and made out of pure and fresh ingredients.

The recipe is below as well!
