Easy Health Tip and New Raw Dessert Recipe!

Are you passionate about raw foods?  Are you thinking, “raw foods? You mean carrot sticks and an apple?” Prefer traditional diets?  Follow plant-based nutrition?  What nutritional path have you chosen for good health?

 

If you answer is “I haven’t a clue!” then here is a great health tip to get you on the right track. Eating more raw fruits and veggies will naturally increase your energy and improve your digestion:

 

Start eating 1 raw meal a day. What do I mean by that?

 

Try eating only a big salad with loads of raw veggies (you can include diced avocado, nuts, seeds and oil cured olives in there for more heft and satisfaction) for either lunch or dinner. This will automatically give you the recommended daily intake of veggies you need – easily!

 

Another tip: skip the heavy salad dressing. Simply squeeze half a lemon and drizzle with extra virgin olive oil for healthy fats and the cleansing power of lemon.

 

 

A NEW RAW DESSERT RECIPE – JUST FOR YOU!

 

What’s the deal with raw foods? Why are all the stars and actors into eating this way? Well, look at them – their skin is glowing and clear (ex: Demi Moore, Sting and Angela Bassett) and their body’s are in top shape.

 

Here’s a simple way to work more raw foods into your diet: dessert!

 

RAW CASHEW PUDDING

 

2 cups RAW cashews


2 tsp vanilla
 extract

1/4 cups raw agave syrup

tiny pinch sea salt


1/2 cups water

 

Dump your cashews into the food process and process into a fine flour.  Add in the vanilla, agave, sea salt and half of the water into your processor.  This pudding is going to be thick, so it can be hard to get it all mixed up by the blades.  Add more water (no more than the 1/2 cup) to thin it out and pause every few seconds to scrape the sides with a spatula.

 

Eat fresh or refrigerate for later – will keep for 2 days in a tightly sealed container.
