Low-Fat Raw Vegan ThanksLiving ;-)

This year I am celebrating my very first Raw Vegan Thanksgiving.  My Thanksgiving table with be full of beautiful, living plants. No dead things (hence ThanksLiving).
I have seen a lot of Raw Vegan holiday recipes, but most are extremely high fat (lots of nuts/seeds/oils). I advocate for a Low Fat/High Carbohydrate diet, so these recipes will definitely not do. Finally, I stumbled upon Double Organic's ThanksLiving recipes and I knew I had to make them! TuRAWkey, Mashed Potatoes, Gravy, Cranberry Sauce, Cornbread, and Pumpkin Pie...all RAW!!! 


               This was the most food prep I have done in SO long!! But it was worth it ;-)

Carpe Diem


"Spatio brevi spem longam reseces. dum loquimur, fugerit invida aetas: carpe diem, quam minimum credula postero."

-Scale back your long hopes to a short period. While we speak, envious time will have {already} fled: seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the next day.-

We are not promised another day.  We cannot live in the past nor live in the future.  Our past and our future are our present.  Be present in mind, body, and spirit.  Be conscious of life.  Live to your fullest.  Hold absolutely nothing back.

Carpe Diem
