Cook it. Go.

The corporatizing of food and water supplies is driving prices of basic necessities through the roof. Whatever! I want to do something about it!

Here's what on my list:

Hit the farmers markets and see what's out there cheap.
Learn about canning (again).
Figure out how to grow my own herbs while living in the middle...(more)

Recipes for Shakes

Crystallized said May 11, 2007, 11:51 AM:

 

I'm looking for some good recipes for shakes. I love using the blender and it is, by far, my favourite small appliance! I've been looking for recipes for

breakfast-type shakes
high protein shakes
and hot-day shakes.

I like the idea of adding raw eggs for protein, but when I tried it once I could smell the raw egg, and so it took away from the yumminess of the shake.

So yeah, I was looking for some good recipes.

Thanks:)

I like putting raw eggs in my shakes but it only seems to work well with something creamy and strongyly flavored. This usually means (for me) nutmilk (usually brazil nuts as I’m allergic to casein), maybe some banana with carob or cocoa, cinnamon, a little raw honey and maybe some berries.

I’m really enjoying the folowing smoothie a lot. Freshly made orange juice, 1 banana, freshly sliced aloe vera, nectarines, a little ground flax or chia seeds, hemp oil and a little vanilla extract. I can get away adding egg yolk to this but not the white. Yummy!
