Who want's to juice without a masticating juicer?
And it's easier without having to chop small pieces to fit into the tube
Take a handful of kale
Squeeze half a lemon
10-15 stem and leaves fresh coriander
Add a litre of spring water
Teaspoon of spirulina
Blend away till smooth
Now - take a sieve and pour contents into it over a jug of your choice
I like to pour into a couple of mason jars with lids and handles - one for the fridge and one for on the go!, I bought 4 pint sized mason jars with lids from Amazon see below, I also use them to store food items in such as hemp seeds, cacao.
This juice helps to pull heavy metals from out of the body!
Based in Devon UK, I write about wild and raw foods suitable for the UK climate. Some people are put off raw food if their hands get cold etc, but with a few adjustments then this should not happen. If we eat raw food that's tropical (useful in keeping the body cool) then we will suffer the cold right! I also think that we should eat food from our local environment and so wild food is the way to keep to that.

Raw Lunch - Courgette noodles with creamy tomato and nettle sauce
Here is a quick and simple recipe for a raw food lunch that includes some wild food necessary to obtain deep rooted nutrients from fertile soil that has not been depleted due to industrial crop growing.
So what we go:
Take 2 small courgettes or 1 large one and either use a manual hand cheese grater or slicer, or a food processor using the large grater attachment, or a hand noodle maker.
Take 3 medium tomato's, cut 5-6 nettle leaves and place in a blender with half a ripe avocado. At this stage you can add some garlic and a few olives (un-pitted) and blend till smooth
Toss the courgette noodles in olive oil with a little sea salt, then pour over the sauce and enjoy

Wild Green Smoothie with Nettles and Dandelion's
I enjoy a raw food lifestyle and have noticed incredible health benefits along my journey the past 3 years. I stopped raw food and my health deteriorated very quickly and so I went back to raw till 4 and this is working well, till 4 is on whole foods and no sugar, bread, dairy etc..
The other change I made was to add wild foods to my diet, after all is raw food that's been sat in a shop for a few days really that vital still? No, not really!
I now add nettles that grow wild and pop them in my smoothie in the morning, or add to juices that I made around lunchtime.
So here goes my personal recipe
I melon of your choice
7 snipped leaves of nettles (top leaves) straight into a colander
3 dandelion leaves (from a dog walk free zone)
1 banana (optional) for breakfast bulk
1 date (optional) for sweetness
Blend away until the leaves are blended finely
Enjoy!
