RAW Creamy Caulflower Salad

 

I have fond memories of this salad from my raw days, so I thought I would experiment a little for dinner and 'WULLAH', out came this delicious dish. Well it must of been kind of yummy because Imad my dear husband went out and bought 6 cauliflowers!!! If the garlic and lemon is too much for your liking, use a little less.

Serves 4

 

Ingredients:

1 Small Cauliflower, cut into small florets (roughly between 4-5 cups)

1 cup raw cashews

1 tsp celtic salt

4 cloves garlic

1/2 cup water

1/4 cup olive oil

1/4 cup + 1 Tbs lemon juice

1/2 red capsicum, sliced thinly

1/2 cup mint leaves, sliced thinly

• In a high speed blender, blend the cashews until broken up into crumbs.
• Add the salt, garlic and water. Blend well until smooth.
• While the blender is still on, slowly drizzle in the olive oil.
• Continue to slowly drizzle in the lemon juice with the blender still on
• In a bowl, combine the cauliflower, red capsicum, mint and cashew sauce. Stir together carefully and enjoy!

RAW Chia and Coconut Pudding

A couple of years ago I had a few small health issues so I decided to take the plunge and go RAW. I thought I would only do it for a month, but that month became almost 12!! Besides feeling great, my skin was glowing and I had a heap of energy.

So after baby number 3 (feeling tired, no comments of my skin glowing, and a few kgs to lose), I have decided it's time for us all to do a little more RAW. This was our first raw breakfast into our journey - it was DELISH!! Super easy and quick too :o)


Serves 2-4

Ingredients:
1 young coconut (the ones which are white and look like a type of pyramid)
1/3 cup raw cashews
1/2 mango
1 ripe pear
1/3 cup raw agave
1/2 tsp vanilla extract or paste from bean
3 Tbs chia seeds

• Crack open the coconut and pour the coconut juice into a blender. Scoop out the flesh and place that in the blender too. Whiz on high until smooth.
• Add the cashews to the coconut and blend on high until smooth.
• Add the mango, pear, agave and vanilla and blend together.
• Lastly, add the chia seeds and blend for a about 10 seconds until well blended through. Let the pudding sit for about 10 minutes and serve with fresh fruit and Cashew Cream.

Enjoy eating a LIVING breakfast - yummy!!
