Finally, a tasty main dish.

At the RAW class the other night, Celeste showed us how to use rice papers and Nori (neither raw, but still good) to make different kinds of wraps. I LOVED the spring roll wrap, but I couldn't find the rice paper anywhere in town. Then I remembered that I had nori in the cupboard! Who has nori in the cupboard? Someone like me, who randomly decides she's going to make some weird dish but never does - in this case, sushi. So, wah-lah, I have wraps, I have veggies, I have sauce fixings...and YUM! I call them Asian Coleslaw Taquitos because the filling is mostly cabbage and they're shaped like taquitos. :-) I'll post the recipe a different day because it's pretty long. Don't worry, it's quick to make!

Also, Ron and I are huge ice cream addicts, so we had to try some sort of frozen dessert. Surprisingly, our first attempt without a recipe turned out pretty good! Here's the picture and the recipe - it's fast and easy to make! We even let baby Caleb try some, and we tried to take pictures since it was his first ever ice cream...but he was so fast at crawling up on my lap to get more that all of the pictures turned out blurry! lol Guess he's an ice cream kid, too. :-)

Raw Strawberry Ice Cream
Machine: Food Processor
Ingredients:
3-5 cups of frozen strawberries (no sugar added, organic is better, other frozen fruit works)
Agave (or raw honey, depending on the flavor you like better)
Water
Vanilla (optional)

Directions:
Dump in the strawberries. Drizzle with about 3 tablespoons of agave and a couple table spoons of water. Run the food processor, stopping every 15 seconds or so to scrape the sides and taste test. Add agave and/or vanilla as desired. Process until berries are fully integrated, and then scoop and enjoy! :-)
