Gazpacho is a traditional cold soup of Spanish cuisine, typically made with ingredients such as cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, and onions. Recently, a variation of the recipe has gained popularity, in which some of the tomatoes are replaced with beets, resulting in a vibrant purple dish that is perfect for special occasions like Valentine's Day.

Vegan Pad Thai for Two

Recipe Author: Beautiful on Raw

You’ll find no more universal dish in Thailand’s cuisine than Pad Thai. Though generally made with rice paste, vegetables, and shrimp, it comes in as many variations as there are Thai households. Here’s a raw vegan version that’s finger-licking good. The dish artfully blends Asian flavors with vegetables.

This recipe is ideal for a romantic dinner, where you’d want to share delicious dishes while eating healthy. We substitute coconut for soy, and noodles made from zucchini, carrots, and sprouts for the usual rice noodles. Try this one on Valentine’s Day!

Some sources say that’s 58 times more than spinach, 18 times higher than you’ll find in meat. Ideal for vegans. Spirulina contains a blend of amino acids with sulfur, nitrogen, and cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12).

Recipe Author: Beautiful on Raw

This juice works great as an aperitif. It has a sweet touch with an interesting combination of flavors. The red pepper adds a sweet and spicy flavor, which is very pleasant. Just like carrots. The tomato for its part is refreshing and diuretic.

Both carrots and paprika are rich in iron, vitamin C, and antioxidants. In turn, the combination of vitamins and minerals in this juice help strengthen the immune system.

Likewise, this juice is rich in beta-carotene. Beta carotene help strengthen the immune system. And it will give natural tan to your skin.
