Chia Seed and Fruit Breakfast Pudding
Chia seeds are a fun and wonderful superfood! The gelatinous texture they get once they’ve had some time to soak is so uniquely nice and satisfying, and they are so good for you, too! Chia seeds provide many of the same benefits of flax seeds, but without the need to be ground up to be fully digested. They’re full of Omega 3 fatty acids, calcium, and fiber. And they make such awesome pudding!
Chia seed breakfast pudding is great for an easy morning meal that you just pull out of the fridge and enjoy. No need to have all your neurons firing, this delicious breakfast pudding makes morning great whether or not you’re a morning person!
Vegan Garlic Dill Cheese Dip
Cheese is one of those things which people will always ask about. How could you give up cheese? I would love to, but I could never give up cheese! Oh, silly people. Of course you can, because we have cashews! This yummy garlic dill “cheese dip” is an awesome snack for curling up with a book, or watching a movie, or hanging out with friends, or any other activity which might nicely be complemented by snacking. Okay, so that’ s pretty much every activity. Except for maybe jogging.
Enjoy this lovely “cheese dip” anytime, except when jogging!
Pomegranate Persimmon Salad With Maple Vinaigrette
Pomegranates and persimmons are two slightly out-of-the-ordinary fruits for the Western palate but are still easy to find. They’re right in that sweet spot between unusual and common that makes them exciting without being threatening. While they can be a bit trickier than your average apples and oranges (persimmons need to be super, super ripe and pomegranate seeds are just so tricky to get at!) the little bit of extra effort is completely worth it. They are really two of the most interesting and delicious fruits.
You can enjoy both these wonderful fruits in this pomegranate persimmon salad!
Raw Chocolate Peanut Butter Brownie Ice Cream Cake
Did you ever have ice cream cake when you were growing up? If you did, well oh my gosh you’d best be excited by this recipe. If you didn’t, well, honestly that’s probably for the best. But you should be just as excited! Because here you get the glorious experience which is the frosty, chewy, brownie lovely ice cream cake experience — but without all the questionable stuff! It’s another example of how with raw food you can have your ice cream cake and eat it, too.
Rainbow Slaw With Pumpkin Seed and Kale
Looking for something to do with all those pumpkin seeds you just scooped out of your jack-o-lantern? Well how about use them as a garnish on a delicious salad as colorful as autumn itself?
This slaw isn’t fermented, but that means you can whip it up easily in just a few minutes without any preparation. However, if you like to make your own “real” coleslaw, you can substitute that for the 2 cups of cabbage for an even tangier rainbow slaw!
Chocolate Strawberries
Chocolate strawberries, of course, are great for those intimate moments. But they’re also great as a snack for all sorts of occasions! Whether for a candle-lit night for two, or a quick and simple crowd-pleaser for your next potluck, it’s hard to go wrong with chocolate strawberries!
