An Indian inspired accompaniment made with antioxidant-rich mulberries, golden berries, ginger, garlic, cilantro, red onion, jalapeno, olive oil, and cumin seeds. This recipe was created for Navitas Naturals, my favorite source for the best superfoods to supercharge my day.

Peaches in summer are incredible. The farmer’s markets are full of sweet juicy white, yellow, and donut peaches. This is another recipe from my Huffington Post article on Raw Foods.
Peach Cobbler
Makes 2 servings
This is the fastest cobbler in the world. Just mix your nuts and dates, and sprinkle over your sliced peaches. No baking. It’s that easy!
1/4 cup pitted dates, packed
1/4 cup pecans
1/2 teaspoon coconut oil
2 peaches, sliced
Place all ingredients into your food processor, and process into small pieces. Be careful not to over process into butter. You want a crumble texture.
Arrange peach slices on your plate, and sprinkle with crumble crust mixture.

Here’s the smoothie I wrote about in my Huffington Post article on raw foods. It’s packed with antioxidants and vitamins to keep us looking and feeling great. Plus soaked chia keeps us super hydrated, and keeps our skin supple and moist.
