And also:

Oh, and links to recipes &/or recipes themselves would help! Thanks so much!

Reason: Add categories Carmella suggested.
Dessert: Ouch! Again, it's really hard to narrow it down to my absolute faves. Heathy's Chocolate Orange Cake (in upcoming Just Desserts ebook), my Strawberry Shortcake, Avo-based chocolate mousse, Blueberry Cardamom Ice Cream, Hazelnut Chocolate Pie (from RFC ebook), my Oatmeal Raisin Cookies (from RFC ebook), raw chocolate, Cafe Gratitude's Key Lime Pie (ok, ok, I better stop here...)
Cool! Thanks Carmella! I updated my first post to include those new categories you suggested.
I also updated my second post to add orange juice to the smoothie recipe - I forgot it!
I'm looking forward to trying The Pilgrim's Soup - our local farmer's market has Jerusalem artichokes and I wanted to find a recipe to use them, so that's perfect!
I'm also excited about that chinese herb in the chocolate and coffee recipes ... it's supposed to help with low back pain, which I have. It's on the shopping list now!
Salad: Lettuce - avocado - dulse - tomato - olives - mushrooms salad with pieces of Ani's sesame bread (but made into crackers)
Favorite dressing: Jennifer Cornbleet's lemon dressing.
Soup: Cream of cucumber soup (Jennifer Cornbleet's)
Snack: Bananas or berry green smoothie
Entree: Soup (gazpacho and avocado) and salad.
Dessert: Carmella's strawberry shortcake.
Drink / smoothie: My berry spinach green smoothie or Carmella's choconana shake.
Breakfast: A green smoothie (again! I'm a fan) and orange juice, or nut mylk with sunflower and pumpkin seeds, or Carmella's choconana shake.
Lunch: A big salad with large mushrooms stuffed with walnut pate (Jennifer Cornbleet's), or a big salad with Brendan Brazier's walnut-hemp burgers.
Dinner: Same.
And also:
Bread/Crackers: Ani Phyo's sesame bread.
Spreads/Dips: Cheddar cheeze dip!
