I Like It Raw

Help me come up with raw food (balanced) meal ideas, please.
Not because I'm a health nut, but because I'm lazy. I don't want to cook, order in, or eat out all the time.

eating solely raw foods and getting all the nutrition right is super time consuming (like exhausting sometimes!)
they're not raw, but for protein canned soups and chilis is one easy way to cook. open can and heat (or not). or boil in the bag. add a piece of wholegrain toast for grain. for fruit and veg, just pick the portable stuff: bananas, apples....

Response by poster: The molested kale salad sounds delcious! And I would love the recipe for the banana ice cream - thank you. I'll try to jalapeno burgers too.
I'm not planning to eat solely raw foods. I just don't want to cook or even open a can of anything a few times a week, y'know?

Supposedly rice and beans together form a perfect protein, and beans couldn't be easier to make or store in the fridge, so that's something you might like to keep on hand too!
For banana ice cream that's super healthy, just take some really ripe nanners, peel them and cut them up and put them in a baggie. Pop in the freezer. The next day the bananas are frozen. Throw some in a food processor and add nothing ;) Just let them whip into ice cream. If you want to flavor it somehow, I've been known to add cacao powder, strawberries, or agave syrup or honey. SO good!

I too am SO lazy. So I like to dehydrate and plan and make one day, and then eat that stuff for the week.
Also amazing and quick is banana ice cream, will type out the recipe if you don't know it already.
