Hi Sandy,
A head of celery is a “bunch” of celery. The whole thing.

I just tried this kale salad, and it is fantastic! Since I didn’t have the exact pirtoons, I wasn’t sure how much lemon juice to add, so I added a bit much I believe, but it made the kale not only edible but very tasty also.

Jenny,
I’ve been using Raw Food Made Easy… for about 5 years and love the recipes, especially the juice and hummus. For the Energizing-Purifying juice, in the book you mention adding equal parts water for a fast. When is the best time to add water vs. pure juice? Is it personal preference or has to do w/how it metabolizes while fasting?
thanks!

Hi Cheryl,
You can just drink the juice straight if you want, that’s what I usually do (and then drink a glass of water in between each juice). But if you want to get less calories per juice and do a deeper fast, you can dilute the juice with water (doesn’t taste quite as good, though).
