You remember Wendy right? She’s the one that blessed me with the breasts & cock sauce recipe. Well, I had another assignment for her, this time it was all about raw! Well, as raw as you should get in this day and age… a pure raw diet would involve a recipe that starts off by wearing ninja masks and stealing shit from farmers. That’s too much effort. I also told her that I wanted a complete meal, which means a main course followed by dessert. Too many people aren’t eating desserts these days and I can see why, but there is no reason your dessert can’t be good AND good for you. Stick yo middle fingers up and say it with me “Fuck compromises!”

But before we dive in, I got a special announcement for you. I’ll be doing something called “FitJerk Friday’s” over at Wendy’s blog. What exactly is this? It’s this new religion I’m inventing. Every Friday you pray to me and tell me how awesome I am. Wendy will even make an FJ shrine out of chocolate (how appropriate) so you have something to look at. After this, you’ll be showered with wine and all your problems will go away.

Ok no.

I’ll just let my handy dandy image speak for itself…

If you’ve got a blog, show us your support and lift your skirt. Wait no, I meant to say download that image and host it somewhere on your blog where people can see. By doing so, I will give you a link back every Friday on my blog posts. The “pep” talk will be featured on both our blogs, but only Wendy’s blog will have both the peptalk and the delicious recipe combo.

On with the raw recipe, do your thing Wendy…

When FJ first asked me to create a meal based on the raw diet, I realized there are a lot of versions of raw diets. I finally figured out that he was talking mostly about a Paleo-type diet as described at thepaleodiet.com

This menu might seem summery, but sometimes we need that here in Michigan!

Main course: Grilled Fish

DH helped me out here with his new smoker/grill thing. Basically he thawed some tilapia fillets, and layered lemon slices on top and sprinkled with rosemary and thyme. Could also add some cracked pepper, before or after cooking. Wrap in foil packets and grill for about 15-20 minutes.

Side dish: You can steam vegetables (broccoli is always a crowd-pleaser) or, my favorite this time of year, roast winter vegetables in the oven.

Dessert: Berry Blast

Take 1 C frozen mixed berries, 4-5 fresh mint leaves, a splash of lemon juice, and blend away just until the large chunks are broken up. Better than ice cream! DH thought it was a little tart, although I loved it. You could always add a little Stevia although that’s not exactly on the Paleo OR raw diet.

All I’m gona say is… I’m feeling a lil hungry. Peace!
