HOME IS WHERE THE HOME GROWN IS

It is a huge dream of mine to have a home garden full of edible produce. I have spent many an hour day dream of thriving raised garden beds, bountiful fruit trees and trellises jam packed with peans and beans. 

The problem with this dream is that I am practically a black thumb. I have never had any luck with plants not even cacti, so I decided to start small with my edible garden.  For a few moths now I have been growing (very successfully I might add) my own potted herbs, HAZAAR! After the herbs were growing well I added a few heirloom tomato plants and set them up in a wine barrel. 

Today I am SUPER excited to announce that my tomato plants have had little tomato babies that I had the pleasure of harvesting this morning. It was only 2 ripe tomatoes as I have had some troubles with evil caterpillars that seem determined to stand in the way of me growing organically. But none the less here they are and I am proud as punch!

TA DA!

I tasted the little beauties and they were so sweet and delicious I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. After tasting them, I made them into one of my super easy go to raw lunches that I though I would share…

ZOODLES & COODLES WITH TOMATO RAWCE
raw. vegan. 

for the zoodles & coodles

1/2 a zucchini

1x purple carrot

1x orange carrot

Either use a spiraliser (which I don't have) or peeler to make "noodles"

for the rawce

2-3 tomatos (I used 2 additional cherry truss tomatoes because they're so little)

1 TBS tahini

fresh herbs of your choice (I used basil, rosemary & sage from my garden)

pink salt and pepper to taste

Quarter your tomatoes and place all ingredients into your food processor or blender.

Mix until desired consistency (I like mine a bit chunky like a salsa)

Put the zoodles and coodles in a bowl and top with the race, and thats it!

I will be adding a bunch of my favourite raw recipes this year, I hope you'll try them at home and I hope you will enjoy not only the way they taste but also the way they make you feel.
