We are lucky.. and thankful for the bounty of fruit laid before us each day. Our family consumes ~ 100 lbs of produce per week at this point.
We eat green smoothies, fruit, greens, vegs, and some nuts/seeds.
The kids are doing great .. eating 100% raw (unless the school gives them candy/junk in class - it happens).
My wife and I eat low fat raw vegan. She is ~98% raw... this year - I am 100% since Dec18 2009.
Here is an example of our daily fare:
Kids
===
Bfast - Split a Green Smoothie (4 bananas, 3 oz berries, handful baby spinach, water)
Lunch - Fruit - 1Banana, 1apple, 1/2 cup raisins (each)
Snack - 4 dates each
Dinner - Fruit - 1 banana, 1/2 apple, soaked dried figs (4-5) or another green smoothie
After dinner digests.. we will give them guacamole or almonds... and maybe some flax oil before bed.. they need fat... we let them have as much as they want.
Wife
===
Grazing mono fruit (mostly grapefruit, oranges, strawberries).. when hungry.... no real schedule..
.
Me
==
Bfast - 10 dried soaked figs + 10 dates
lunch - 7 bananas
mid day - 4 apples
dinner - 3 mangos + large salad (1+ lbs greens, celery, cucumber, tomato, w/ lemon juice)
Sometimes I have an avocado.. normally.. 2-3 of them per week.
Best wishes all.. it is never 2 late 2 start loving food that loves you back !!
