1 clove garlic
4 -5 leaves of kale, washed and stems cut off
Juice of 1 lemon

1 Tbsp of Bragg's
Sea salt to taste

2 pears
1 avocado
handful of sprouted buckwheat groats

Method:

• Place parsley and garlic in the TMX-bowl and chop for 4-5 seconds on speed 5
• Cut or tare kale leaves and add with with lemon juice, oil, Bragg's, salt and cayenne and mix for 1 minute on speed 3

The marinated kale will keep 1-3 days without the pears, avocado and sprouts. I like some Crunchy_Buckwheaties with my salad.

Crunchy Buckwheaties with Cocoa

Buckwheat is sprouting very fast. Even soaking for 1 hour is enough and easy to digest. 2 cups unsoaked seeds will yield about 3 1/2 cups soaked. I saok them over night in a bowl covered with water, rinse really well , place them for up to 2 days into a sproutgrower or colander until the tail is about the size of the buckwheat. We eat one part fresh as cereals or in a salad . The other part dehydrated plain or with cocoa and maple syrup/agve.

Ingredients:

320 g / 2 cups sprouted buckwheat groats

100 g maple syrup

1 Tbsp raw cocoa powder

1/2 tsp sea salt

1 tsp vanilla extract

1/4 tsp maca powder

Method:

• Place the sprouted buckwheat groats in the TMX bowl and add the remaining ingredients
• Blend them for 20 seconds on speed 5
• Spread on one or two Teflex-lined dehydrator trays and dehydrate at 115*F for 8 hours or until the Teflex peels away
• Dehydrate until complete dry for a few hours until dry and crunchy
• Break into pieces and store in an airtight container or keep them in the fridge
• They don't last long at our house

Raw Carrot Cake with Cashew Frosting

I use the pulp left over from juicing carrots for this cake.
If you don't have a juicer, process your carrots in the TMX on speed 4-5 . Press the pulp through a fine colander, strainer, nutmilk bag or cheese cloth to extract the juice. The pulp should not be too soggy. I used cashew cream for the frosting, which can be stored for 2-3 days in the refrigerator or frozen. Place 2 cups soaked and rinsed cashews in the TMX-bowl, cover them with fresh water and a squeeze of lemon. Blend on speed 8-10 smooth
