Here we are with Mariela at Vegan Santa Fe at 323 McKenzie. Next time you are in Santa Fe, drop in and see what she is preparing for lunch, it is sure to surprise and delight you. We had stuffed tomatoes, sprouted quinoa salad and raw berry ice cream, and a wonderful blooming tea. You can also find our crackers and marzipan for sale in her store. http://www.vegansantafe.com/

March's Raw Food Pot Luck

Todd brought his Ozonated water to the pot luck and a lively conversation arose over the benifits of structured water. Check out the video Water if you are interested in learning more, it is quite fascinating to see all the research and findings that are being revealed to us. I will never think of water in the same way again.

Ch Ch Ch Chia


Chia seed
The reimergance of an ancient superfood, known as Indian running food. Just Google Chia and you will find a plethora of information on this tiny power packed seed.
Chia seeds are typically small ovals with a diameter of about one millimeter. They are mottle-colored with brown, gray, black and white. Chia seeds typically contain 20% protein, 34% oil, 25% dietary fiber (mostly soluble with high molecular weight), and significant levels of antioxidants (chlorogenic and caffeic acids, myricetin, quercetin, and kaempferol flavonols). The oil from chia seeds contains a very high concentration of omega-3 fatty acid — approximately 64%. Chia seeds contain no gluten and trace levels of sodium. There are no known toxic components of chia.

Chia seeds are great for athletes because they are highly hydrophilic, meaning they can absorb large amounts of water. They can hold 10 times their weight in water making them a great enhancer in hydrating our bodies.

You can find our newest product Chia Chips at Cid’s Food Market and soon to be sold at our online outlets listed in the Link Section.
