RED PEPPER PESTO Take 2 red peppers and toast them on a grill or on a gas stove top (directly on the flame). The peppers must be charred all the way around. Turn them with tongs as each side darkens to black. This should take a few minutes. When finished place them directly into a paper bag or something with a lid. They must be piping hot when covered so heat of the pepper steams the skin of the pepper right off. Meanwhile unpeel 2 cloves of garlic and place in a blender or cuisinart with 1/3 to 1/2 cup olive oil and 1/2 cup parmesan cheese and 1/8 cup pine nuts In about 10 minutes you will want to remove the peppers from the bag and scrape off the skin with a knife. Cut the center out of the pepper. Take the peppers and put them into the blender with the other ingredients and mix until smooth. Add salt and pepper to taste. Put on top of your favorite pasta. Goes great with potato gnocchi. I wasnt sure if this was the correct place to post a recipe but here goes anyway.

Nevertheless, I have posted two recipes for kale (yum!), a very interesting *raw potato* salad, and a raw blueberry pie, with a crust made of nuts and dried fruit, and the filling made exclusively of blueberries. Yum! the recipes are on my blog http://prettysmartrawfoodideas.wordpress.com/ Sadly, I cannot view the newletter in my Adobe Acrobat 5.0 (and I cannot seem to use a reader as long as I have the Acrobat), so I am restricted to waiting for the paper-based newsletter for information.
