Pine-Apple-Berry Juice

This recipe is the business! If you’re in any kind of a raw food rut then this winner will enthuse and delight even the most jaded of taste buds…

Equipment: Juicer

Ingredients:

(Makes one large glass)
• Half a fresh juicy ripe pineapple
• 1 small handful of raspberries (about 12)
• 1 apple

Directions:

1) Simply place all the ingredients into your juicer and get as much juice out as you can. If you're using a non-green juicer like a Champion or centrifugal juicer then it's worth putting the wet pulp through again to get even more precious drops out!
2) Give it a good stir and... mmmm.
I know - an expensive habit to form if you don't grow your own raspberries, but you're so worth it!

How To Get Out of a Raw Food Rut

Whether you’re new to raw food and haven't yet experimented that much, or a longer term raw foodie but feel like you've hit a wall and salads fruit and smoothies just aren't doing it for you right now, fret not! Help is at hand.

It's perfectly natural to get bored with food sometimes. When you think about it, we do this with all aspects of life from time to time, whether it be our job, our home, our relationships or whatever - now and again we need to take stock, see where the problem is (inside or out - or both) and do what we need to do.

Bearing this in mind, this issue’s article is about what you can do when you start feeling bored and uninspired by your raw food diet and find yourself staring longingly at the deli counter or the Indian take-away even when you know that's not what you really want! What you really want is just to eat raw and love it - is that really too much to ask?
