ten
easy day … i also wanna take part in the game 
…. inspired by jademond & coolcat here are ten of our staples:
- greens. must-have. i cannot get along without. basically wild greens. now, in winter, blackberry leaves & lots of spinache. curly kale. sometimes rocket and field salad.
- fruit. seasonal choice. as fresh as possible! organic, of course. & as much ripe tropical fruit as we can get. papaya & ananas are our favorites these days. oranges & apples are basics, too. i usually buy them by crate at the central market. fruit & greens make up about 90% of our food
- avocados – our basic fatty fruit. best are avocado hass from kurt dornhoff (portugal) – in season now!
- coconuts. ripe or young. best drink & yummy pulp. i can never get enough of them. i could live on coconut, banana & greens for weeks.
- tomatoes. we eat them fresh in summer & make tomato sauce from dried ones during the rest of the year.
- sunflower seeds for my daughter … she is eating at least a pound a week.
- algae. dried wakame or, even better, fresh fucus. rich in minerals, salty taste & a wonderful replacement for (or addition to) fresh greens.
- vegetables. seasonal choice. we do not eat a lot of vegetables but there is always something fresh in the fridge. both kids love cucumber & bell pepper. turnip cabbage for m. me, i lately like fennel, broccoli & sweet potato.
- almonds & dates. our candy, especially in winter. just eat them as they are or for nice treats like marzipan e. g.
- red lentils for the kids. m. likes them raw, sprouted, with cashew dressing. j. prefers his vegan (cooked) lasagna (lentils, carrots, oat-cream, pasta)
