So far it seems he is allergic to wheat and soy, and I am missing wheat big time! I think I will try out your idea with the nori rolls.AnnaPKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11132416687440942833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7574269791828128314.post-23492950225894256982011-12-03T04:05:11.063-07:002011-12-03T04:05:11.063-07:00I'm a keenly-cooking-omnivore but this post ga...I'm a keenly-cooking-omnivore but this post gave me real pause! We have a lot of nori-based foods here and i have eaten probably a ton of (failed - i have no dehydrator and have to go for a cool oven for hours on end!) kale chips since first tasting them in Uni a decade ago!<br /><br />Anyway, i was going to say, i have grated cauliflower for "rice" before, i don't know if you'd fancy that? But nori roll with caulirice, grated beetroot, very ripe (mashed up usually) avocado and some apple pieces (again, a soft variety, finely grated) dipped in soy sauce (fairly sure that's not raw? maybe you can sub?) is yummy and even my picky kids will have a go. The "rice" is firm and fragrant, the beets are sweet and tart, the avocado holds it together, the apple brings mushy sweetness and the soy is salty-good.<br /><br />I've been reading your blog for years, i love hearing about you all. I pledge, one day when i'm rich i'm going to pay you a six figure sum for all the patterns of yours i used to clothe my eldest when i was a single mom and dirt poor!

Raw snacks are one thing but when you start trying to make more complicated things, it gets tricky. I've been trying to go raw for the last year. I try for a few days, then give up, wait awhile, then try again. This week I planned to make raw hummus. Sounds easy, right? Not. 4 days of soaking and sprouting beans before I could throw them in the blender. By the time I was ready to make it I realized my sesame seeds were expired, and hummus without tahini just doesn't work for me. So.. we just ate the bean sprouts and maybe I'll try again some day but I don't know that I have the patience for this. I think I'm sticking to raw salads... and will keep cooking my beans. :) <br />By the way, I love your blog, been reading for a couple years, just rarely comment since I usually read from my phone. I'm also unschooling my kids, and I love your perspective on things!

Ok...I am just starting out on this raw foods thing. Okay, maybe not really starting. I am hooked on rice and breads! I just can't imagine life without them! But, I do know that is where I plan to be very soon. Eating only raw foods. If my ten year old new, he would probably cry. So, I don't have any suggestions for you. I'm pretty unhelpful there. But I am intrigued about this nori roll. I'll be checking back to see if anyone else has some tips though!
