Day #51 Sweet Pepper Wrappers pg. 82 entertaining in the raw

September 14, 2009

I just got out of Anatomy. I got my test score back. I got an A! I’m so excited. I was nervous about getting the grade. Many people were dreading getting their grades back. The test was tough, it was 166 questions, but he only counted 150. I was worried but I conquered it!! Now on to the next 2 chapters, Tissues and Integumentary System.

Well, I am going to report what last nights project tasted like. The foie gras, in my book, was the worst thing I’ve made yet. It reminded me of liver pate. I didn’t like it at all. I haven’t eaten liver since I was probably 8 or 9 years old. Ugh. I will never make this again. I don’t really like to make food that resembles meat this much. I had to take a picture of it before I threw it out. I did taste it by itself and then on the flat bread. It was terrible both ways. If you really like liver pate, you will love this. It reminded me of meat so much it really grossed me out. I feel bad saying this, but I have to be honest.

The flat bread was delicious. I would make this again, but I would add basil and some spices. The sun-dried tomatoes were delicious and chewy. The bread tasted sweet, because of the walnuts. It was easy to make. I love going into the dehydrator and pulling my goodies out of there after a whole day at work. It’s nice to come home and have food to eat. It really helps when I am trying to eat mostly raw food.

Tonight I made sweet pepper wrappers. I have made something similar to these before. Cherie Soria has a recipe in her book The Raw Revolution. They were very good. I used to make about 12 at a time. They are low in calories, because they are made with zucchini and red peppers, and they are perfect for sandwiches.
M.K. recipe is a bit more fattening because of the coconut meat, but I am sure they will have a sweeter flavor than the other wraps I usually make. I put all ingredients into the vitamix and poured it out onto the parchment paper. This didn’t take long, maybe 5 minutes. This will be done in 5 hours. It is in the dehydrator now.

I am very tired, it’s only 10 pm. I’ve been up since 5 am and I need to study. I need strength, I am going to pray and God will lead me to do what I should do tonight. I am very grateful that I passed my test with an A, and had an awesome day. I finished another day of my project, sometimes I feel like I can’t do anymore but I just do and when I’m done at the end of the day, it feels like I’ve conquered again! I will continue.
