"domino magazine" news and stories

A diet that consists solely of raw food can be intimidating and a little jarring if you're not used to it. But despite its associations with body "cleanses" and hippy-dippy living, it's really a welcomed change from the overly-cooked, overly-fussed with food many of us are used to.

This month, Domino Magazine features a days' worth of raw food recipes (minus dinner) that are heavy on taste and light on pretension.

The menu?

Breakfast: Blueprint Pudding atop Manna bread and adorned with fresh berries
Lunch: Nori Lettuce Wraps spiced up with pickled ginger, garlic and minced jalapeno
Snacks: Crudites with Sesame Dip and a luscious Chocolate Mousse

These dishes are simple and satisfying, whether you try them for a day or make them a permanent part of your diet.

Sure, we'd love to be able to throw our gorgeous heads back and say with ease that we go to the farmers' market every week to buy all our organic produce; that we drive out to the closest dairy farm to pick up fresh organic milk and yogurt, and even ranch our own little flock of chickens for our own organic eggs.

But let's get real. Chickens are noisy.

Seriously though, in the ever-increasing pace of the world that we live in, we're lucky just to be able to think about eating responsibly, let alone actually do it. Thanks to Domino magazine's "green" issue, you can access some reliable organic foods without having to travel too far (and using all that gas) to get them.
