Guest guest Posted July 21, 2004 Report Share Posted July 21, 2004 I'm overwhelmed by the activity in this group! I have been contemplating a vegetarian group for my high school. It would be centered around vegetarians, but would be open to people whom just want to eat healthy in this fast-food crazed world. I would love to hear more " iffffyouonlyknew " about your club, and if anyone had any arguments, persuasion tips for the faculty at my school to fully consider and respect my ideas, please let me know!

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2006 Report Share Posted February 3, 2006 Welcome Sheri. You will love your life now. I'm not sure what peppermint tea consists of, but if it is just mint leaves, you could steep it in the sun without heating, and add ice later. I'll leave it to the more knowledgeable members to deliberate on the rawness question of boiling water. If it is a mix or something, maybe you can make a natural alternative. Good luck, Lane - sherimeshal rawfood Friday, February 03, 2006 6:11 AM [Raw Food] Another Newbie I can't believe I'm really here - it's been a long road! 29 of my 35 years of dieting and the past 12 getting closer and closer to eating raw. Finally it was just too obvious what I needed to do. I gave up the dieting all together, since it had done nothing but make me fat and miserable about it. I looked back on the times I ate Paleo and felt really good and decided to take it one step further. I'm so relieved to finally be doing this. I feel FREE! I had first come up with the idea in my early twenties and didn't know it was an actual way of life. It just seemed like common sense, but a friend convinced me it was crazy and I let it go. Finished my first real day of 100% raw and feel so much better than I did before I started. Pretty sure I have leaky gut (yuck - isn't that attractive sounding?)after reading some testimonials on raw sites. On the first of Feb. I attempted raw, but still needed to mull it over in my mind a little more, however even cutting way back on processed food that day got me through the old sugar-detox headache, so I didn't even have to deal with that on my REAL first day. I thought it was a great day to start too, being Groundhog Day since I want to stop feeling like a waddling old groundhog, but start eating more like one! My first question is about tea. I love iced peppermint tea, but can I still drink this if I'm going for 100% raw? I usually fill half the cup with nearly boiling water, let it steep some and fill the rest of the cup with ice. I'm guessing nearly boiling water is a no-no now, but will it steep decently in warm water and how warm? ~Sheri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2006 Report Share Posted February 6, 2006 I believe in a mixed raw/ vegan diet...I mean, why deny yourself Pepermint Tea!!! No, it isn't going to kill you. Yes, I believe that unhealthy fats may kill you but peppermint tea! There is nothing better or more purifying than a warm green or herbal tea... and study after study have proven its benefits. You only live once - live your best and sensibly and don't deny yourself the small, healthy pleasures in life! rawfood , " sherimeshal " <sherimeshal wrote: > > Thanks Lane. > > > ~Sheri > > > rawfood , " Lane Martin " <lanie@> wrote: > > > > Welcome Sheri.

Guest guest Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Hi Im a new member. I have two teenage daughters. Love to cook and recently have been finding more satisfaction with cooking vegetarian. I use TVP in my ground beef recipes (tacos, sloppy joes) and the girls love it. Have started using my food processor a ton more to make vegey burgers by throwing in a bunch of vegeys (any), beans or tofu, whole wheat flour, spices and then form patties and fry in tiny bit of olive oil or bake.
