RT's Quick and Easy Cranberry Relish

Wishing all all who celebrate, a fabulous Happy Thanksgiving. May you treasure time with friends and/or family. While I won't be with my entire family tomorrow, I will be with my adorable grandson Leo, my younger daughter, SIL, and their family. I know it will be a fabulous day!

Enjoy the day, eat as healthy as you can and you'll be happier the next day...but enjoy whatever it is you decide to eat...JOY and gratitude are most important tomorrow!! There is no room for guilt. Besides, it won't change anything. Decide ahead of time what you plan to eat and then let it go.  I give thanks to my friends and loved ones, near and far and send love to all of the amazing people in my life that are no longer with us. I know they will be with us in spirit.  Blessings!!!!

Quick Living Cranberry Relish(Rawlish)

Quick, easy, more tart than sweet...delicious, and no one would even stop to think this is "raw." I actually made this several days in advance and stored it in a glass mason jar. Enjoy! Happy Holidays! If you don't like nuts or raisins, feel free to omit them.

Kale, Kale, Kale, Kale - Like You've Never Seen It!

Kale Chips are one of my favorite dehydrated snacks. The crunch of it is so very satisfying to me. I also love to watch the surprise on someone's face when they approach these treats with such trepidation and skepticism, only to discover they are as decadent as I promised. I'm currently working on a project to come up with innovative flavors that totally titillate the taste buds!

Cranberry Nut Muffins

These scrumptious muffins are awesome this time of  year. They can be frozen and popped in the dehydrator to warm as needed. The mixture can also be made into a lovely cranberry nut bread and served with a drizzle of raw honey.

White Chocolate - Cranberry Mousse Parfait

A hint of white chocolate, delicately placed between  layers of a light cranberry mousse.  If you don't have Irish moss paste, you can try increasing the amount of ground chia, but the consistency may not be as silky. Another option would be to use young Thai coconut water and meat in place of the filtered water. MMM..

Grammy's CRAWnberry Jello Mold

Thanksgiving has always been one of my favorite holidays, and sadly, last year, I spent the entire day traveling home from Florida, after losing my mom on November 20th. In memory of momsie, aka "Grammy," I created this raw version of her FAMOUS Cranberry Jello Mold. It really was an outrageously delicious dish, however, loaded with lots of serious junk, including artificial coloring and flavoring, not to mention SUGAR and MAYONNAISE!!!. I haven't yet mastered the molded part of the recipe yet. I think I'd have to use a lot more Irish moss paste, and I'm not sure how that would impact the flavor. However, this turned out delicious and contains some of the key elements that made Grammy's dish so scrumptious!
