    YUMMY Fruit Roll-Up Treats! :: Banana Pear

    Here is a fun thing to do on a rainy day - make homemade fruit leathers! Remember those good old Fruit Roll-Ups from when we were kids? Here's a DIY version. Of course you'll need one of the wonderful dehydrator machines, but I assume some of you have these. If not, skip this fun recipe. 

    What you'll need:

    Vitamix
    Dehydrator
    Teflex Sheets
    3 Very Ripe Bananas
    4 Very Ripe Pears
    1 Large Scoop Protein Powder
    Water {optional - use a tiny bit to get the blender going if necessary}

    To make the fruit roll ups, first wash and then blend the fruit in the blender until VERY VERY smooth/homogenous. I left the skin on the pears to ensure you get all the fiber and vitamins/minerals. Add the protein powder. 

    Pour the mixture onto the Teflex sheet. Then gently bang the trays on the counter or move the mixture around by moving the dehydrator tray around until you get a very thin, pancake type circle. 

    Dehydrate overnight {12-14 hours} at 105-110F until done {the roll-ups are done when they are no longer wet and stick together. 

    Have fun. A HEALTHY, raw food remake of the original. PLEASE notice a difference in the ingredients that the original General Mills version contains:

    Fruit Juice from concentrate {apple & pear}
    Corn Syrup
    Dried Corn Syrup
    Partially Hydrogenated Cottonseed Oil
    Sugar
    Modified Corn Starch
    Fruit Pectin
    Citric Acid
    Dextrose
    Sodium Citrate
    Color {red 40, blue 1, yellow 5 and other color added}
    Malic Acid
    Potassium Citrate
    Vit C
    Mineral Oil
    Natural Flavor
    Carnauba Wax
    Bees Wax

    note: might be worth it investing in a dehydrator after reading those ingredients. Kind of scary. 😉

      Hi Juli,
      After looking over all your delicious recipes, I'm thinking of investing in a dehydrator and wondered if you had a recommendation.

      Thanks and all the best,
      Ann-Marie

      funny you ask ann-marie, i had a dehydrator link on my homepage here a few weeks ago but then i deleted it for various reasons.

      anyways, yes, excalibur is the best manufacturer.

      hope that helps. 😉

Passion fruit water is yet another youth serum. As passion fruit is full of vitamin C, vitamin A, fiber, and minerals like calcium, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and folate. These help your kidneys, nerves, muscles, and heart rhythm in big ways.
Your body uses Vitamins C to make blood vessels, cartilage, muscles, and collagen, which keeps skin looking young. It also helps your body heal, lowers inflammation, and protects your cells from damage. When you get enough vitamin C, it lowers your chances of getting colds and certain types of cancers. Vit A is great for eyes, immunity, and cells.
Note: did you know Passion Fruit is actually a berry? The biggest berry you’ll find.

    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not rea
    If you’re not ready for change, you’re not ready for change. And that’s perfectly ok. 
Making healthy choices isn’t hard work. You “have time” to choose an apple over a bag of chips. Let’s be real here; you just DON’T WANT TO.  And that alone is totally ok!!
Let’s not shame others choices or pressure another to change. If somebody is not happy where they’re at, or they are sick, or in pain, only then will they start examining their current routines and habits. Anger is a great catalysts for change. It often pushes people out if their comfort zones and into action. 
I often hear “I don’t have time to be healthy”. But what that really means is I don’t want to change or I’m afraid of change. And I’m not ready. Change is what they’re nervous about - not the amount of time it takes to chop up vegetables. 
Be kind to yourself…but be honest. 
Notice what you say you desire (weightloss or more energy) and then really examine your habits. Do you make the choices a “thin” person makes? Do you make the choices a rested high energy person needs to make? This might seem obvious but it’s actually not…so often we overlook this gap. We don’t see it and then we get mad at ourselves. Punish ourselves for “failing” over and over again. 
Once you start paying attention to your actions and habits and line them up with your goals - that’s when the magic happens. 
Yay or nay?
