Good morning Nostr Fam 🌞💜 Yesterday I made something very delicious: A CHICKEN SALAD!!! Yes!!! and it turned out super delicious. Maybe I'll publish the recipe soon on #zapcooking...But I'll make it one more time to make sure it's well received. It was so delicious and I'm sure no one would have missed the dead chicken in this salad. Raw vegan, nourishing, healthy, best consistency and just sooo delicious 😋🤸💥 Yesterday a picture I posted almost went viral 🤣 That was definitely not my intention...I am a person who loves peace and balance among each other...but that's the way it is...Lots of discussions, agreements and disagreements. A bunch of people trying to defend their point of view, belief, religion, culture, while I'm just trying to defend the animals without a voice... 🫂 We are what we eat...no discussion about that⚡️ But my passion is to inspire with what I create in the kitchen, always in peace and with love. So here a glimpse: https://i.nostr.build/4eUvC5hlCQ4BW5oE.jpg https://i.nostr.build/8NrvLg6AIWNJzAfX.jpg #rawvegan #vegan #foodstr #healthy #peacefood #peace #love

Definitely enjoy me some oyster mushrooms 🍄‍🟫 Lion’s Mane too. Taste like Lobster I’ve been Vegan for 13 years now. Not raw vegan though though I spent years on it but yea yummy stuff.

Love reading you! Sometimes it feels a bit lonely as a vegan here on Nostr 😅💜 Do you know if lion's Mane can be eaten raw too? I've seen fried recipes with lion's Mane and always looks really tasty. There is so much creativity with mushrooms out there. I love it! I turned vegan in 2013 🤗 And raw-vegan in April this year. And I'm loving this journey a lot 🙏🏽🌱

Oh yes I’ve been seeing a lot of steaks and carnivore heavy diets here. It’s all love however eating plants is always the best. My diet isn’t as great as it use to but never a carcass on my plate and I’m happy about that. Mushrooms are so great and diverse. You can eat it raw though I haven’t tried it but others have. Some raw vegans I know likes to dehydrate things a bit so it doesn’t ruin its “prana” too much. Awesome that you are on this journey and you are encouraging me to eat some fresh yummy food.

Ahw!! Thank you so much! Yes, the chicken salad is dehydrated and marinated for about 3 hours. Drying is very convenient and it tastes super delicious. I regularly make wraps and crackers in the dehydrator, especially. Although I know in my heart that this is not the best. Because the air oxidizes the food and many vitamins get lost. Also, it's a shame to extract the cell-water by drying... But I have the feeling that one day I will stop cooking raw and become a fruitarian. But I'm not ready yet. I still enjoy the culinary food that I prepare too much. Food is also an addiction 🙌🏼

I'm really not sure if I'll get that far in this lifetime... food is just so addictive 🤤 And yes, I firmly believe that it is possible to live on pure Prana... But to do that we have to let go of so many beliefs and let our conscious mind grow and merge with our subconscious mind 🙏🏽 It's all about energy 💫 Is there a reason why you stopped eating raw only?

Well mainly because along the way I learned to keep things simple as in eat raw and eat cooked. Whatever nourishing the body and to not make a religion out of eating as that’s what I was doing. Plus naturally it started to move in that direction in eating cooked foods. Also in both Chinese medicine and in Ayurveda they say to eat warm cooked foods including drinks as it aides the spleen and digestive fire. You know the 3-10 thousand year old healing systems. My problem recommends eating meat but I’m more on the Ayurveda side of things in keeping with ahimsa (non-violence). The health of the body truly is determined by the health of the spirit (astral body) as the soul is already perfect but the subtle bodies sometimes need healing or refinement when we aren’t in alignment. I do like eating raw but not fully raw. I do like eating cooked but not fully cooked. This is the basis of why I’m not fully raw, but also not fully cooked haha.

Thank you for taking the time to write and tell me about yourself. I find this very interesting. I completely understand the reasons and yes, it is so important to listen to your body and soul. Exactly the warmth, the inner digestive fire was one of my biggest question marks when I switched to raw food: I also studied Chinese nutrition and Ayurvedic nutrition. I then heard a wonderful answer from a raw vegan chef from Switzerland. He studied also in India...His name is Urs Hochstrasser. He is probably raw since around 1990 I guess...He said: If you take the plant as it is and don't cook it, it contains all the elements... including the fire, wood and warmth. Even if you eat it raw. I'll see how it works for me. I started with raw food as a self-experiment. I didn't set myself a goal or anything like that. I just keep going as long as it feels right and see where it takes me. Last weekend I ate roasted peanuts and they were delicious ;)

Thank you for sharing your story with me and I’ll be looking him up for sure. One thing is for sure that I can’t deny is my body feels more light and energized with raw food, though my digestion feels better with cooked foods. Raw fruits especially fruits make you feel whole. Pun intended haha

This isn't about putting each other down or making each other feel bad. That's what Meta... or X is for. Not on Nostr, my friend. I inspire those who want to be inspired. And you can inspire your friends with what you like to do. So don't encourage hate speech here. Thank you!
