Raw vegan falafel

Hello! Long time no post. I've been very busy with school and personal things so I haven't gotten the chance to update my website! I'm terribly sorry to just abandon everyone on here who's following. I'll try to update more often!






































You must be drooling. Are you ready for something epic? You should be!

Directions:

In your blender, put the following:
-1c chopped carrots
-Juice from 1/4 lemon
-1/8c fresh cilantro
-1/4c chopped scallions
-1/4c raw sunflower seeds
-1 to 2 Tbs nutritional yeast

Blend until smooth enough that it sticks together, but leave it slightly chunky.

{Makes about 7}

Roll in a sprinkle of hemp seeds or sesame seeds (I used hemp seeds).

Serve in any kind of lettuce. I used purple cabbage and served it with fresh corn. You can add any vegetables you want, like tomatoes, peppers, cucumber, etc.

Enjoy!

Apple pie






































I spy with my little eye... apple pie! It's that time of year.



























Directions:

In your blender, put the following ingredients:
-16 pitted medjool dates
-1/2c dried mulberries
-1/8c walnuts *(optional)*

Blend!

Place half of the "crust" into a bowl or pie dish.
Layer on slices of apples.
Surround the edges with the other half of the "crust" and slightly spread towards the middle.

{serves 2-3}

That's literally IT! Easy as pie.

Noatmeal cookies



























Noatmeal cookies? Oatmeal cookies with no oatmeal? Can it be done? Why of course! With a little creativity, I came up with a recipe for a certain food but without the expected main ingredient!

Directions:

In your blender, put the following ingredients:
-1/2c dried mulberries
-5 pitted medjool dates
-1/4c raw buckwheat groats (optional)
-1/4c raw almonds (optional)
-3 Tbs shredded coconut (optional)

Pulse in the blender until it forms into a fairly chunky paste.

Mold into 2-3 cookies.

What do to with it? Crumble it over a fruit bowl!





































Or eat by itself! Or dunk in a cup of coffee. Or with nut butter spread on top. Or on one of my ice cream recipes!

(Note: can be made with just the 2 ingredients - mulberries and dates, if you're into simplicity. I just added the other things so that they had most of the food groups in them).
