Low-Fat Creamy Mustard for Stefanie

Raw Mustard
1 Tbsp. mustard seed (soak in lemon juice at least 14 hours)

2 Tbsp. sesame seeds  (also soak in same lemon juice at least 14 hours)
1/2 avocado
6 Tbsp. lemon juice (use from soaking liquid and add more if needed) 

2 celery stalks
1 small zucchini
2 cups fresh cauliflower (or dehydrate it) 
add up to 1/3 cup water or more lemon juice - to taste - I did ALL lemon juice...:)  But I am crazy for lemons - no more than 1/2 cup of liquid - some combo of lemons and water.  
5 dates

2 shakes of powder turmeric...for color (or few grates of fresh turmeric) 

Throw all in blender and let dates soak in liquid for 20 minutes before blending. Blend until smooth. 


No-Fat Raw Open-Faced Reuben Sandwich

Cut zucchini in half
Scrape out seeds and hollow it out like a canoe

Put in tupperware and squeeze lemon juice into each half - fill up the hollowed out space with lemon juice. (optional: can also use this Tomato Dressing (link2left) + lemon juice for zucchini)
Let marinate overnight.

4 oz. mushrooms
4 large collard leaves - cut leaves into strips vertically

Put each into separate ziplocs with the following marinade:

1 grapefruit, peeled and whole
2 tangerines, peeled and whole
1 date soaked in blended citrus for 15 mins.
Scraped out seeds from zucchini
1 garlic clove
1 slice of serrano or jalapeno

Blend well...pour over mushrooms...squeeze out air and close well. Put flat on plate in fridge overnight.  In a separate ziploc, put in collard strips and freeze overnight.  

Take out collards the next day to thaw. Will wilt them and make them taste dehydrated. 

Next day, take out zucchini and use lemon juice on tomatoes and mushrooms below.  

Cut up Roma tomatoes and mix with mushrooms and 1 tsp. Menschy Mustard (link2left) mustard and a some of the lemon juice from marinating zucchini.  Put them into zucchini half and top with marinated collard strips. 




No-Fat Raw Foot Long Subs

Peel one long cucumber
Cut the long cuke in half lengthwise
Scrape out seeds and put into marinade below

Put in ziploc with marinade of your choice...I used:

1 grapefruit, peeled and whole
2 tangerines, peeled and whole
1 date soaked in blended citrus for 15 mins.
Scraped out seeds from cucumber
1 garlic clove
1 slice of serrano or jalapeno

Blend well...pour over cucumber halves and mix around...squeeze out air and close well. Put flat on plate in fridge overnight.

Next day, take out cuke halves letting marinade slide off back into bag.

I cut up tomatoes and cilantro and freshly dried rosemary.  Put lemon juice and tsp. of Menschy Mustard on it and mixed. And put into sub.

2 avocados, mashed
1/2 cup pineapple, chopped
Juice of 1 lime
