Yummy raw recipe

[Mary]

Oh, what a beautiful morning........

I just had a lovely raw breakfast that I wanted to share with
ya'all....good one for kids....

1st, fill bowl with cut strawberries, blueberries, and raspberries.

Juice fresh oranges and pour over berries

Top with "whipped cream"....see recipe...

Almond Or Cashew "Whipped Cream"
by Abbey's Vegetarian Recipes

1 cup almonds or cashews
¾ cup water
1 Tablespoon maple syrup (optional)
½ teaspoon vanilla (optional)
(I added a dash of salt and one more tablespoon of syrup, we used
cashew...they are a little creamier)

I served this with mint tea using mint from my friend Tara's garden
(Thanks Tara). We went to the Farmer's Market in Redlands on Sat.
(7-10 a.m.) and got a big bag of oranges and berries. Also, we had
breakfast at the Eating Room, yum...fun morning!

perfect timing ... we're at the hump in the road of needing some encouragement :-)

I also didn't know that redlands was saturday mornings - i thought it was thursday nights. good info - thanks. i'm hoping to get there soon to compare it to the vvc market prices which we're doing on thurs mornings.

do you have a coconut cheesecake recipe? (i think the cheesecake we had was coconut at the raw food day you hosted, but i'm fairly certain the gal doesn't give out her recipes which i appreciate)  i have a coconut and would like to make a fun dessert.

i'm also tracking down the ingredients for a great looking chocolate cake on youtube, but can't find hemp seed butter. is there a store that is good for these kinds of things - bj's health store in victorville is limited, but we go to la a few times a week along the 210 if there's any good stores there.

cheers,
janet

Hi Janet,   I have not made a cheesecake but I found this one online.  I think it might be similar to the one we had at the demo.    Just Like Cheesecake - by Emily Lee Angell Makes: 24 slivers Special Equipment: Food Processor For the Crust: 2 cups raw macadamia nuts 1/2 cup dates, pitted 1/4 cup dried coconut For the cheese: 3 cups chopped cashews, soaked for at least 1 hour 3/4 cup lemon juice (or lime juice) 3/4 cup honey 3/4 cup coconut oil 1 teaspoon vanilla 1/2 teaspoon celtic sea salt (optional) For raspberry sauce: 1 bag frozen raspberries 1/2 cup dates DIRECTIONS To make the crust, process the macadamia nuts and dates in the food processor. Sprinkle dried coconut onto the bottom of an 8 or 9 inch springform pan. Press crust onto the coconut. This will prevent it from sticking. To make the cheese, blend the cashews, lemon, honey, gently warmed coconut oil (do not use microwave), vanilla, sea salt (if using), and 1/2 cup water. Blend until smooth and adjust to taste. Pour the mixture onto the crust. Remove air bubbles by tapping the pan on a table. Place in the freezer until firm. Remove the whole cake from the pan while frozen and place on a serving platter. Defrost in the refrigerator. (I didn’t defrost it all the way) To make the raspberry sauce, process raspberries and dates in a food processor until well blended. (Do not use a blender for this or the raspberry seeds will become like sand.) I put strawberries on it instead. Yummy! I am not sure were to get hemp butter.  You might try online or substitute almond butter.  You could check with Wholefoods too.  The Whole Wheatery in Palmdale also has a small raw food section.    Bon Apetit,   Mary --- On Mon, 6/14/10, Janet Hay <indianoc...@hotmail.com> wrote:

You can check out "Chef Loweta" on YouTube making a chocolate "cheesecake".  She gives the ingredients during the demo.  I think you can put in Chef Loweta or Heart and Sol Chef in the search.
