[fruit porridge]


i barely make time for breakfast. i'm just a go go go kind of person. always have somewhere to be or there something that needs to get done. so i'm always thinking of ways to still eat healthy but not take all morning to make. so i started making this fruit porridge for breakfast because its exactly that. 

this feeds two adults or one adult and a couple kiddos

[fruit porridge]

2 apples
1 pear
1 kiwi
1 celery stalk

blend all ingredients in blender. don't blend too long you don't want a smoothie. you want it still a little chucky. sprinkle with cinnamon and hemp seeds


[raw sinful chocolate pie]



that's right chocolate lovers. this is so so good. i'm so excited to share this recipe with you that i found in The Art of Eating Raw  i absolutely loved it. please enjoy!

sinful chocolate pie

crust:
3/4 cup nuts (i used pecans)
1/2 cup raw cacao
1 1/2 tablespoons coconut oil
1 pinch of salt

filling:
3/4 raw cacao 
2 1/2 cups dates
3 tablespoons coconut oil
2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 teaspoon salt

garnish:
raspberries 

grind nuts into four in a coffee grinder. stir cacao, coconut oil, and salt with the nut flour until you get a solid mass. you can also use a food processor. 

spread the mass in as thing a layer as possible in a pie dish lined with wax paper. (i used another piece of wax paper on top to flatten dough so that my hands didn't get dirty and it was easier to make a thin layer)

mix the ingredients for the filling in a food processor until creamy. pour the filling into the pie dish and leave in the refrigerator for a couple of hours. if it has to be served quickly, you can place it in the freezer for about an hour instead.

serve on a plate with fresh raspberries or any other fresh fruit you prefer.


Enjoy every last bite!

[green breakfast smoothie]

i LOVE fruit & veggies. so much that i have been eating raw for the last month and a half. i'm hoping in the next couple of weeks to post some of my delicious finds and some of my raw inventions. now i'm sharing this really quick and easy recipe because i have so many friends who don't have a juicer and still want some thing green to drink in the morning. all you need is a good blender.



ingredients:
1-2 oranges peeled
1 cup fresh pineapple (also try substituting for blueberries)
1 frozen banana or fresh (just a add a little ice to your blender)
couple handfuls of spinach

Just throw everything in your blender and blend on a high speed until it looks smooth. 


i'm so thankful that my kids love fresh juice or smoothies.
