Superfood Cacao Avocado Tartlets

I whipped up some Superfood Cacao Avocado Tartlets for a dinner party tonight. They are made with avocado for creaminess, and sweetened with superfoods: lucuma, carob, stevia since I'm watching my sugars (no syrups and need low-glycemic). Added in spirulina, which is why the pudding's a bit green. The crust is made with raisins, cacao, pink sea salt, and cashews. Topped with goji berries and vanilla sauce. Delicious way to detox in the summertime with whole, unprocessed, local, seasonal, nutritious, rawfood goodness!

Vegan Protein Pudding

I whipped up this Protein Pudding at my client's home by using what he had on hand in his fridge and cabinets. Since he had no vanilla extract and no cacao powder, I used his flavored vegan protein powders instead. He did have half of a banana, 2 avocados, coconut water, and stevia powder. So, I made this Protein Pudding by blending together sweet banana, creamy avocado, chocolate and also vanilla protein powders, electrolyte coconut water, and non-caloric stevia powder. And it was delicious! Though I've personally stopped using all protein powders (instead I'm using only whole foods), this gluten-free, vegan pudding is an easy way to up your protein intake today. Happy Meatless Monday!
