New for 2013- recipe index

That’s right, in order to help you keep to your new year’s resolutions to eat healthier, I’ve added a recipe index to the Jozi Uncooked site. It’s not perfect, but it’s there and it should make finding your favourite recipes much easier. The link is at the top of the page, or just click here. I’ll try to keep adding recipes and improving the links for you as the year progresses.

I have to say that creating the recipe index reminded me of some delicious recipes that I’d forgotten about. I’m looking forward to making them all again this year. Enjoy!

Start 2013 on a healthy note

Every year, most of us resolve to be healthier, to eat better, to exercise more, etc etc and then we promptly forget about our resolutions. This year, you can put those resolutions into action right away with a 5-day raw detox. After the over-indulgence of the holiday season, it’s a great way to cleanse and re-set your system. We’ll be running two 5-day detoxes in January: 14-18th January and 28 January-1 Feb.

Last 5-day raw vegan detox of 2012

raw vegan 5-day detox foods

This is your last chance for a detox in 2012, your last chance to spend 5 days eating gourmet healthy raw, vegan food that’s delivered to your door. The dates are: 3-7 December. Now that the silly season is in full swing, many of us fall of the wagon of our healthy eating habits. You can avoid that– or at least have a healthy interlude– by doing the detox.

The 5-day detox is an opportunity to eat nutritious and delicious food without the hassle of having to prepare it yourself. It’s a gentle cleanse (or a bit more intense if you normally eat lots of processed, fast food), and a great way to boost your energy and vitality. Every day, you will receive: breakfast, snack, lunch, juice and supper. Breakfast might be a raw granola with almond milk or a big smoothie. The snack might be a raw energy bar, cucumber-grape gazpacho or flax crackers with cultured nut cheese. Lunch might be a raw pizza or burger. The juice is a different delicious combination of fruits and veggies each day. Supper might be raw lasagna or Asian sesame-ginger noodles.

All of the meals are raw, vegan, sugar-free and gluten-free.

In addition to your meals, you will also receive an info pack about eating raw/vegan food and detoxing, as well as questionnaires at the beginning and end of the week to help you set goals and evaluate your experience. I will stay in touch with you during the 5 days to provide ongoing motivation and support.

Space is limited, so please email joziuncooked@gmail.com as soon as possible to book a place. In your email, please include: a) any allergies or food intolerances that might affect the menu; b) your delivery address (for either before 9am or after 6pm).

If you miss this one, we’ll be back with 2 detoxes in January. Also, we’ll be sending out the healthy holiday catering menu soon, if you want to celebrate with delicious and nutritious meals.
