Avocado Burritos
8 leaves of romaine lettuce
2 avocados
2 jalapeno peppers
4 tomatoes
1 orange

Mix and mash the avocados, peppers and tomatoes. Squeeze on the orange for sweetness. Place avocado mix into a lettuce leaf and roll up. Remove the jalapeno peppers if serving this dish to young children.

Cosmic Pepperman's Raw Chocolate Chip Mint Ice Cream
Water from 3 young coconuts
Pulp from 5 young coconuts
1 cup pistachios
1/2 cup hemp seeds
1 cup macadamia nuts
1/2 cup agave cactus nectar
1 tablespoon Hawaiian white honey or another exotic honey
1 tablespoon spirulina
1 medium-sized ripe avocado
3 tablespoons chopped fresh mint (chocolate mint if available)
2 tablespoons coconut oil/butter
1/2 cup of crushed cacao beans (raw chocolate)

Blend coconut pulp and coconut water in a strong blender. Strain coconut pulp through a fine mesh strainer or nut milk bag. Pour the coconut blend back into the blender. Add all ingredients except the cacao beans. Blend on high until creamy. Sprinkle cacao into the cream.

Ecuador
1 cherimoya
4 kale leaves
1 avocado

Pick the seeds out of the cherimoya. Dice the kale. Cut, dice and mash avocado together with the other ingredients. The very center "stamenlike" growth in the heart of the cherimoya is excellent for replenishing male sexual fluids. This is a balanced meal.

Fats Avocado Salad
4-5 handfuls of wild greens(dandelion,lamb's quarters,malva,mustard..)
2 avocados
40 olives
2 tbsp of organic, extra-virgin, stonepressed olive oil or hempseed oil
1 pinch of sea salt or pink Himalayan salt

Mix in a salad. Combining olives with avocados is a powerful mixture. This is a trace mineralizer (wild greens and natural salts are loaded with trace minerals) and a bone builder (as fats help with the assimilation of calcium). I feel I am on top of the world when I eat this!

Fats Guacamole
3 avocados
3 ripe jalapeno peppers
1 habanero pepper
3 tomatoes
1 bunch of cilantro
1 ripe yellow lime

Mix and mash. Squeeze lime into the mixture. The lime juice acts as an antioxidant allowing the mixture to keep longer and taste better. Keeping the avocado pits in the mix will also help the guacamole to last longer.

JM's Almond Hummus
2 cups of water-soaked almonds (strained after 8 hours of soaking)
6 sun-dried tomatoes
1 peeled clove of garlic
2-3 tablespoons of tahini (preferably black, unhulled tahini)
3-4 tablespoons of olive oil
1 sprig of basil
1 sprig of thyme
1 sprig of oregano
1 pinch of sea salt
juice of 4 lemons

Start the almonds early. Allow to soak in pure water for 8 hours. Pour off the water and start the recipe with these almonds. Squeeze the juice from four lemons. Add all ingredients in a blender or food processor. Blend and serve.

Live Berry Pie

Pie crust:
2 cups of soaked almonds

1/2 cup of monukka raisins
juice of one lemon
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg

Mix all crust ingredients together in a food processor and press into a pie shell.

Binder:

2 cups of berries (blueberry, blackberry, raspberry and strawberry)
1 cup of peaches

Blend well in a food processor or blender. Stir the binder into the crust shell. Manicure the top of the pie with berries. Refrigerate for two hours before serving. This is a great recipe for children.

Nori Rolls
6-8 sheets of raw, sun-dried (not toasted) nori seaweed
2-3 avocados
1 bunch of clover sprouts
1 bunch of cilantro
1 cucumber

Dice all ingredients. Mix avocados, clover, cilantro and cucumber into a flat spread on the nori sheets. Roll each sheet tightly with a sushi mat. Cut into bite-sized portions. Add raw soy sauce (nama shoyu) if desired. Like all seaweeds, nori is an excellent source of trace minerals.

Raw Candy
10 dates
10 almonds
An assortment of superfood samples

Pit the dates. Insert an almond into the pit hole of each date. Pure decadence! Dip these treats into cacaonibs (broken cacao beans), nutmeg, allspice, bee pollen, spirulina, powdered blue-green algae or other favorite additives.

Raw Chocolate
2 young coconuts
20 cacao beans (preferably peeled)
10 raw cashews
3-5 tablespoons of maca
3-5 tablespoons of agave cactus nectar or manuka honey
3 tablespoons of hempseed oil
2 tablespoons of coconut oil/butter
2-3 pinches of sea salt (pref. Celtic sea salt or Himalayan pink rock salt)
2-3 sprinkles of cinnamon

Open up the two young coconuts and pour the water into the blender. Spoon the inner soft flesh out of the coconut and put that also in the blender. Add all ingredients and blend! Maca is a powdered root from Peru; an amazing high-protein superfood aphrodisiac, strengthener and fertility enhancer

Sea Salad
10 strips of dulse seaweed
1 avocado
1 head of lettuce
4 tomatoes

Mix in a salad. Squeeze the lemon into the salad. Dulse is an excellent source of sodium and trace minerals and is a wild food.

Silicon Salad
1 head of romaine lettuce
4 cucumbers
4 tomatoes
6 okra
2 nopales
2 red bell peppers
3 tablespoons of horsetail herb
1 avocado or 1ounce (30ml) of organic,stonecrushed, extravirgin oliveoil

Cut, dice, mix in a salad. Add avocado or olive oil for dressing. Excellent for silicon, which the liver can biologically transmutate into calcium. Silicon creates beautiful, elastic skin; remedies
brittle fingernails; and keeps the hair from turning prematurely grey. Silicon also relieves the pain of tendonitis and related tendon and ligament inflammation.

Winter Solstice
10 dates
10 dinosaur kale leaves (aka black or lacinto kale)
1 avocado

Cut the avocado into ten pieces. Pit the dates. Place a date with an avocado slice inside a kale leaf like a burrito. I lived on this food mixture for nearly the entire winter of 1997- 1998.

Juices & Blends

Almond Milk
40 soaked almonds
8 pitted dates
2 tablespoons of cinnamon powder
1 tablespoon of nutmeg

Mix and blend with distilled water. Almond milk is best when almonds and dates are mixed in an 8:1 ratio. An excellent warming drink for the winter. This drink replaces any egg nog!

Aloe & O.J.
2 aloe vera leaves
10 oranges
1 papaya
2 noni fruits

Juice the oranges on a citrus juicer. Fillet the aloe leaves until the green skin is removed. Blend aloe "gel" with orange juice. Aloe vera heals the skin and mucous membranes. Aloe vera juice is excellent for ulcers and hemorrhoids. Organic, non-GMO papaya is a great addition to this drink. Another great additive is fresh noni. To add noni, wait until the fruits are soft and have a strong odor. Blend the whole fruit including seeds with a little water until you are left with a liquid mush. Strain this mush. Add the remaining liquid to the aloe, orange juice and papaya drink above. Noni is rich in monoatomic elements and activates dormant superpowers.

Athlete
2 cucumbers
5 ribs of celery
10 kale leaves
1 lemon

Juice. I recommend this drink to all athletes. Alkalinity, juvenile water, sodium and calcium...

Captain's Powerhouse
2 handfuls of greens (preferably wild)
2 spoon meat coconuts with water
2 avocados

Blend. We used to drink this in my office daily.

Cherimoya Cream
1 avocado
2 cherimoyas

Remove pit, seeds and skins from the avocado and the cherimoyas. Put the fruits in a blender. Blend. This is a splendid combination which one must taste to believe.

Estrogen Booster
2 yams

Juice. This drink is for young women looking for a boost, menopausal women, or anyone looking to taste something great.

Feijoa & OJ.
10 feijoas (pineapple guavas)
10 oranges

Cut all fruits in half. Juice on a citrus juicer. The smooth feijoa balances the acids in the oranges. This is my favorite sweet winter juice.

Iron Boost
10 strawberries
10 raspberries
1 slice of watermelon
1 handful of parsley

Mix, blend and serve! Red fruits, especially berries, contain high amounts of iron. Red watermelon has the highest iron content of any fruit. Parsley has the highest iron content of any green-leafy vegetable. This is an excellent drink for women just before, and following, menstruation.

Medicine
1 ripe red jalapeno or orange
habanero pepper
5 ribs of bok choy
10 kale leaves

Juice. This drink helps detoxify the lymphatic system and boost the immune system. This drink relieves swollen glands in the throat. This is true medicine.

Molotov Cocktail
4 apples
1 clove of garlic
1 quarter slice of an onion root
1 red jalapeno pepper
1 slice fresh ginger root

Two cups of this drink a day: one for Breakfast, one with Dinner. In conjunction with The Sunfood Diet plan I have outlined in this book, this drink is likely to burn out all digestive parasites within 30 days.

Performance
1 glass of coconut water
1 heaping tablespoon of spirulina

Spirulina is the highest protein food on planet Earth. Coconut water is the highest source of electrolytes found in nature. Both spirulina and coconut water are alkaline. Together, they can drive any athlete to superior performance in all areas. This is one of my secret drinks I recommend for athletes.

Pièce De Resistance
5 apples
1 lemon

Shave off the outer skin of the lemon, leaving the white pith. Juice. I was originally introduced to this recipe years ago by Jay Kordich's book The Juiceman's Power Of Juicing. It is one of the all time best. I have been to Jay's beautiful home and we actually juiced this combination together - what a treat!

Potion Of Invincibility
2 heads of red-leafed lettuce
1 head green cabbage

Juice. A creamy drink. A powerful mineral boost. This is great to drink following a workout. My colleague Caleb "Kale" named this potion.

Raw Courage's Eyesight Enhancer
4 oranges
4 lemons
4 limes
2 grapefruits
2 tangerines
10 feijoas (pineapple guavas)

Juice on a citrus juicer. Mix well and serve. These alkaline citrus fruits are internal cleansers and help to alleviate internal debris, even in the fine capillaries of the eye. This is an excellent drink to use on a juice fast.

Rejuvenator
1 bunch of kale
4-6 ribs of celery
1 cucumber
1 burdock root
1 lemon
1 -2 apples (optional)

Burdock root is a blood purifier and an excellent base to help the body create hormones. Burdock contains one of the highest amounts of organic iron in any food. Kale provides a dense source of alkaline minerals. Cucumber and celery soften the taste. The lemon should be shaved down to the white pith. Apples may be added to sweeten (although better results occur without them). This is, all-around, perhaps the most effective vegetable juice combination I have found. This is a great juice to drink every day.

Remineralizer
8 ribs of celery
12 kale leaves

Juice. Loads the body with sodium and calcium. This is an important drink for those who have been taking mineral-depleting chemical medicines, antibiotics or insulin as it restores heavy minerals to the body.

Sequoia's Calcium Soup
10 kale leaves (preferably dinosaur kale)
1 handful of parsley
2 cloves of garlic
1/3 of a red onion
2 lemons
1 avocado
1 tomato
2 yellow bell peppers
1 handful of dulse strips
1/2 teaspoon Celtic sea salt
1 tablespoon of unpasteurized miso
3 tablespoons of flax oil
20 pumpkin seeds

Shave off the outer skin of the lemons, leaving the white pith intact. While blending all ingredients, add spring water to reach a thick, soupy consistency. This is a great raw soup for kids! And an excellent way to introduce important heavy minerals and calcium into a child's diet.

Super Smoothie
1 apple
1 pear
1 small bowl of blue/black/rasp/strawberries
2-3 tablespoons spirulina
2-3 tablespoons of flax seed oil

Place all contents in a blender. Add distilled water and mix until the desired consistency is reached. This is an excellent breakfast drink in the winter. The pectin in the apples and pears stimulates a bowel movement. The berries are blood builders. The spirulina adds trace minerals. The flax oil allows a slower time-release of fructose into the blood.
