Raw Lemon & Strawberry Cheesecake



Crust: Walnuts & Dates (+ cinnamon if you like)

Cheesecake filling: Cashews & Coconut oil & Lemon & Real Vanilla & Agave & Pinch of salt

Strawberry layer: Strawberries & Agave

All I have to say is YO YO MA! This is even better than “real” cheesecake. A real treat! It’s kind of heavy but the lemon and strawberries makes it fresh. OH. This cheesecake is my new best friend! TRY IT!! (Sorry for no measurements - I encourage you to experiment for yourself! Or google..haha!) :))

Raw Fruit Leathers - Recipe!

Fruit leathers is a great (no, the BEST) thing to make when you have a lot of ripe bananas at home. This is a recipe with only two ingredients. Bananas + Berries = Candy!

BANANA & BLUEBERRY FRUIT LEATHER CANDY - Recipe for one/two trays - 

- 6 very ripe bananas

- 1 cup frozen blueberries (or other berry of your choice)

Mix everything smooth in a high speed blender. Then spread it out evenly on a teflex paper. Dehydrate at 105° for about 8 hours. The fruit leather should be very pliable, not too dry and not wet when it’s done. You should be able to separate it from the teflex paper quite easily. Cut the fruit leather into stripes with a scissor. Then roll them up and cut them into whatever shape you like. Easy as 123 and ABC and all of that! (And so goood!) xx

Kombucha Love

As you may or may not know I have a severe Kombucha addiction. Kombucha is something I NEED every day. A day is not complete without Kombucha! Haha. True story. I really want to buy myself a kombucha baby to feed. Anyone who has any experience with that? 

Here’s some awesome benefits from drinking THE MIGHTY BOOCH;

- Kombucha is a top notch IMMUNE BOOSTER.

- Kombucha BALANCE the body. It supports the liver, blood and digestive system and help normalize and regulate PH and/or acidity in our bodies. 

- Kombucha increase metabolism!

- Kombucha is a great DETOXIFIER and since it’s full of good probiotics (supporting the beneficial bacteria) you intestinal flora will THANK YOU! Healthy gut, healthy body you know! 

- With drinking Kombucha you get a lot of vitamin-B (particulary B1,B2,B6 and B12), vitamin-C and ANTIOXIDANTS.

Well, the list can go on and on and on…

While writing this post I actually have been drinking a bottle of booch. The apple/ginger-flavor from this lovely Swedish brand. It reminds me of my favorite flavor from Synergy/GT’s - Gingerberry (Which I miss so much!). SO GOOD!! xx

Happy easter contest WINNERS!!

HEY! Hope you all had a nice and relaxing weekend/easter! I sure had. Been hanging out with family, friends and two ADORABLE kittens. Just look at Harry in the picture!! HOW CUTE? He was pretty depressed though because he’d injured his foot and couldn’t be outside in the sunny weather playing with his sister Harriet. NAAW!

But enough with the chit chat. It’s time to present the two winners of my “EASTER CONTEST”! Thank you SO much to everyone who participated in the contest. It was a FUN read! Most of you answered “green” (oh, you HEALTHY geeks!) and some of you answered “brown” (oh, you chocoholics!) and one of you were ironic and answered “beige” (HENRIK!). I loved all of the answers! But since there was no right or wrong answer I let random.org help me pick the two winners and the numbers who got picked were…

7. CHAR!

1. RASMUS!

YAY! CONGRATULATIONS! Hope you’re not too full of sweets from easter because some RAW CHOCOLATE is about to come your way! :DD

Char and Rasmus! Please send me an e-mail at veganparade@gmail.com with your addresses! xx

Raw Chocolate Easter Eggs

Made these raw chocolate eggs with a (raw) marzipan filling at work today. They were quite an ambitious project I tell you. These were the steps:

1. Make raw chocolate from scratch

2. Make raw marzipan from scratch

3. Pour chocolate into egg moulds

4. Add marzipan layer

5. Finish off with one more layer of chocolate

6. *Fridge time*

7. Get the eggs out of the mould without breaking them

8. *Nervous breakdown time*

9. Pick out the best looking eggs

10. Wrap them up 

AAAAAH! These eggs were a TEST on my patience. They were so tricky to get PERFECT! Always a little bruise somewhere. But they tasted good and I guess it’s the inside that counts right? Even when it comes to chocolate? I’m making new ones tomorrow though. Practice, practice! What kind of easter treats are you making?

nut free cherry & hemp brownies

So, just posting some brownie-porn for you! I’m selling these at the café and they’re real and they’re spectacular (Seinfeld quote). AND they’re completely nut free because frankly, sometimes I get so tired of all the heavy nuts that are constantly used in raw foods. Don’t you?? Although, love nuts <3 But in moderation! 

The ingredients; hemp seeds (not shelled), sunflower seeds, chia seeds, raw cacao, vanilla, dates, dried cherries, a little drizzle of the old agave and a pinch of salt. 

Love this recipe!

Breakfast

1. A picture of yesterdays breakfast. Made a new batch of raw buckwheat granola earlier this week and went a LITTLE crazy and put a so much stuff in there; hemp seeds, coconut flakes, maca root, acai, mesquite, raspberries, apples, dates (and date paste as a sweetener), raisins, cinnamon, vanilla…Think that was it?! Ate it with some almond milk and it was super yummy deluxe! :)) Drank a large cup of peppermint tea to it as well and a green smoothie with banana, kale, grapefruit and almond milk. *FULL*

2. Made some raw cookies in the afternoon for an easter collaboration-project I have with another raw blogger. Recipe and more pictures coming soon!! 

Hope you all had a nice weekend! xx
