Learning to Kitesurf and Tasty Lettuce Wraps
This weekend has been pretty full, with meeting up with some fellow Aussies that have just moved out to this part of the world, to a Salsa infused Haiti fundraiser (wish I had taken pics but I was too busy catching up on Casino Rueda, Sombrero and Setenta learnt on our dance holiday to Cuba in 2009), to hitting the beach for some kitesurfing action.
No I don’t kitesurf (yet!). But we went out to a local beach to watch the boys, and both Becci and had a go at a trainer kite on the beach, so needless to say we are both eager to get out VERY soon and try the real thing!
Becci getting some Vitamin D
Becci giving the trainer kite a go! Go Becci (and Lucy!)
Dishing out the green smoothie 
(Frozen bananas, frozen strawberries, a whole head of romaine lettuce and filtered water)
Enjoying the Green Smoothie
And here is me having a little lesson on the trainer kite! (and check out the power)
Here, I do a little bit better!
Then time to head home
I’ve been eating loads on the run but here is a snack I had along the way that was quick, easy, delicious and 100% raw. Lemme know if you make it too.
My Soul Sista’s Kristen Raw’s Sun-dried Tomato Pesto. If you haven’t tried it, you totally must! It is crazily addictive and great as a dip, spread or on top of a salad!
cucumbers, peppers (capsicum) all rolled up in a romaine lettuce leaf. Too good.

You brought your VM to the beach <3
I love a good romaine wrap. Definitely need to check out Kristen's pesto!
I know haha, gotta love the VM eh!!!
that’s crazy how fast those kites are!! the second video didn’t work for me though!!
Looks like a beautiful beach too!!
How about trying the link now?
You KNOW how I feel about that Tuscan Dip. I was seriously just about to make some for lunch. It is THE BEST THING EVER and I will forever be in your debt for introducing me to its perfection.
Kite surfing looks like so much fun, can’t wait to see you out on the water! And LUCY! I miss my little fluff ball.
Haha, isn’t it the GREATEST!!!! Lucy misses you too. Maybe Monday afternoon run?
YUM! Pesto looks amazing!
It totally is!! You have to try it!
You look so beautiful at the beach! I could not work the second video, either… Somehow I have never made that pesto – need to get on that. Your photo reminded me of ‘rawcos’ – need to get on that again as well!
Aw Jenn you are always my biggest fan
The wraps could have done with some avocado as an afterthought. Try the video now. Does it work?
Love the green smoothie action on the beach
Glad you all had a great time!
Oh it was so much fun!!
i have made the sundried tomato pesto and it is SO addictive, i agree…
i’m definitely gonna try your lettuce wraps…thanks for the idea!!!
=)
I want to get my vitamin D there, too. I miss the warm beach.
Kite surfing is huge where I used to life in Florida, but I never tried it
Looks like a blast. The wraps look great, I’ve gotta try the pesto!
you totally have a way of making me crave kristen’s food…well, you and tasha who makes the raw cheezy hemp nacho dipping sauce.
and i was just on tashas blog and saw the raw rice and vegetables you made..not only does the food look great, you look smokin’ hot in the pic
and kitesurfing…I watch them do it in aruba when we’re there in dec on holiday and ihave never tried but how fun!!!!
