Karen’s coriander pesto In an earlier post here I showed Karen’s raw courgette pasta with a basil pesto. Butternut or sweet potato also work very well as the ‘pasta’, though these vegetables need to be dropped into hot water and left for about 10 minutes to soften. You could use the same basil pesto as the …
Raw (and healthy) Moch Tort We are really getting into this raw concept, and just loving it. Karen recently bought “Raw Food detox” by Anya Ladra, and having friends for dinner the other evening was just the excuse to try out her Mocha Tort with cacao almond pastry. It was absolutely delicious, and all our …
At Kensington Olympia – London I’ve left our boat in the Netherlands now, and on the way home to South Africa via London. I’d seen in the latest Vegetarian Living mag, that the London Vegfest would be on at the Kensington Olympia exhibition centre while I was there. I couldn’t miss that opportunity! Gosh I wish …
Broccoli Cheez meal aboard I can’t decide which is easier – going vegan, or going raw. We manage a bit of both while on the boat. Here is a quick and delicious light meal we had one evening: Soy schnitzels, broccoli cheez and green peas. Not entirely raw but 100% vegan. The soy products were …

Healthy green smoothie for breakfast Eating raw, vegan and healthy aboard is a challenge in a number of ways, but the one thing that actually makes it easier is we do not have an oven. We have an electric hob, but to operate that we need to run a generator. So we gravitate to raw …
Raw courgette pasta Apologies for being somewhat late with this post. The boating keeps us busy, and then we don’t always have internet access. Raw pasta is something we have been trying to get right for a while, and not too successfully. But here in the Netherlands, while on the boat, we found these lovely …
Our vegan burger patties on the boat Karen and I are fortunate enough to be on our own boat, cruising the waterways of Holland. At the same time, we’re determined to eat not only healthily, but to continue to strive to be vegan and raw as much as possible. To this end Karen avidly reads …
Raw vegan chocolates Karen and I are in Holland at the moment, on a boat. We are trying as far as possible to continue eating healthy, vegan and raw. In the next few posts, I will tell you about some of the meals we have prepared aboard. But in the meantime, here is Karen’s recipe …
