“The world is holy. We are holy. All life is holy. Daily prayers are delivered on the lips of breaking waves, the whisperings of grasses, the shimmering of leaves.” ~ Terry Tempest Williams
Happy Earth Day! In my world, every single day is Earth Day, but especially today, we can pause and give gratitude for the beauty and bounty that surrounds us. Celebrate Gaia by eating WHOLE FOODS that are her gifts to all of us. I reached out to food bloggers to share their favorite vegetarian, vegan, and raw recipes in honor of Earth Day and I invite you to browse the links for inspiration. My thanks to all who shared links!
Mindful eating and consuming live food that gives us vitality and nutrients is an incredible affirmation of Gaia’s life-giving sustenance.
Here on Hungry Goddess, I am loving my new WonderVeg Spiralizer which is giving me inspiration like my new Spiralized Beet and Zucchini Salad with Sumac Roasted Chickpeas and Feta Recipe. Some vegan options are my Fennel Frond and Basil Pesto with Hemp Seeds and Creamy Broccoli Almond Roasted Soup. For my raw food friends, the Chilled Avocado Soup delivers greens and flavors!
