Here's a simple, quick, and great-tasting raw food breakfast recipe for you. I threw this together this morning.

Quick & Easy Breakfast Smoothie

• Throw 1/2 a quart of organic strawberries into the blender. (I think it was 1/2 a quart. The container holding the organic strawberries didn't say what size it was.)
• Add two organic bananas and 1/2 a cucumber (leaving the cucumber skin on).
• Blend all ingredients together in the blender.
• Add a small amount of water if necessary (to make the mixture more smooth).

Initially, I didn't add the cucumber. I only blended the bananas and strawberries. However, the smoothie was too sweet for me, so I added the cucumber. I've noticed that I have a higher sensitivity to sugar after eating mostly raw for a year. What I used to consider not sweet (bananas and strawberries) now seems extremely sweet to me.

I'm still participating in Frederic Patenaude's raw food cleanse/challenge. It's going very well. I have managed to avoid all fat so far.
