Anytime you change to a new diet, it is helpful to find recipes to get you started. Once this becomes a habit, you will likely develop some recipes yourself.

Green Smoothies:
In a blender, layer 1 cup ice, 1 cup water, 6-8 frozen strawberries, and 3-4 handfuls organic baby green spinach. Blend until it reaches the desired consistency. You may need to add more water.

Salad:
Any mixture of greens: spinach, romaine, leafy green lettuce, bok choy or other greens can be the base. Add to that chopped raw veggies of your choice. Tomatoes, avocadoes, cucumbers, celery, carrots, radishes, onions are all alkaline. Eat as many as you desire. Top with a simple vinaigrette made from 1/2 c raw apple cider vinegar, blended with 2/3 c virgin olive oil, and 1/2 c honey. Add herbs, spices, sea salt to taste.

Kale Salad:
Kale is a dense green and needs to be worked with to eat raw in a salad. Tear the kale in small pieces, drizzle with olive oil. Gently massage the olive oil into the kale leaves. This makes them softer and easier to chew. Drizzle with a light vinaigrette, toss lightly. Add 2 cups of chopped veggies, such as onions and tomatoes. Garnish with a handful of raisins.
