To start off the new year, I am giving away 3 copies of “Vegan and Living Raw Food”! Just leave me a comment with your New Year resolution until January 11th Love to all of you
Every time I look at these strawberry Santas I just can’t stop myself from laughing… They are so cute and make me feel very festive, even if strawberries are totally undeniably out of season. To make these, you need some vegan vanilla frosting, strawberries and a few dark chocolate chips. Vanilla frosting -1 coconut milk can -1/4 cup maple syrup -1/4 tsp ground vanilla bean -2 tsp agar powder -4 tbsp coconut cream/butter or cashew butter or white almond butter In a saucepan combine coconut milk, maple syrup, agar powder and vanilla bean. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes or until the agar is dissolved. Transfer in a container and refrigerate until its set- about 30 minutes to 1 hour. Then place it in a food processor and add the nut butter of your choice. Process until its creamy and whipped, about 2 minutes. Transfer cream in a piping bag. Cut off the stems of the strawberries and also cut the tips to use as hats. Pipe cream on them and top with the tips, add a dot of cream on every tip and use the chocolate chips as eyes! Have a good one everyone love, peace and strawberry santa hugs

Juice fasting has been such a great experience and I want to share more of it on the blog. This is why I am starting a series of “Juicespirations” which will be suggestions for flavor combinations in juicing. Hopefully you will find it inspiring and motivating… Having only juice for a few days might sound boring, but there are many yummy combinations you can come up with to things it more interesting and keep you going. Today’s juice is pomegranate with turmeric root. I would say it s more of an elixir than a juice. Pomegranate is of my all time favorite fruit and is now in season. It is very rich in antioxidants which gives it anti-cancer and anti-aging properties. It also helps lower cholesterol, blood pressure, prevents plaque build-up in arteries as well as dental plaque. So get yourself as much of this amazing superfood as you can until the season is over! Turmeric root is a powerful liver detoxifier and has antiseptic properties. Also it is anti-inflammatory and has strong cancer-fighting properties. You can get it fresh in some specialty Indian stores or dried in any spice store. Of course fresh is much more potent and great for juicing. // Pomegranate & Turmeric Elixir // 2 pomegranates, juiced 1 piece of fresh turmeric, juiced follow me on twitter to get blog updates & more… |
