RAW LEMON CASHEW CHEESECAKE
- Crust
- 1 cup raw whole almonds
- 3/4 cup dried dates, pitted and roughly chopped
- 1/4 cup desiccated coconut flakes
- 1 tablespoon water (or as needed)
- Filling
- 1 1/2 cups raw cashew nuts
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/4 cup coconut oil, melted
For the crust, combine whole almonds, dried dates and coconut flakes in a food processor. Pulse until finely chopped and crumbly. It should stick together when pressed between two fingers. Add a tablespoon of water if it doesn’t stick and blend again. Repeat if necessary. Make sure the dough doesn’t get too wet.
With your fingers, press the crust mixture into bottom and sides of a cake pan with removable bottom. Make sure it is evenly covered. Set aside.
Combine drained cashews with lemon juice, coconut oil in the food processor and blend until it becomes smooth and creamy. Transfer mixture onto the crust in the cake pan. Spread evenly and smooth the top.
Put the cake in the freezer for 1-2 hours, or until firm. Remove from freezer, and cut into slices while still frozen. Then keep in refrigerator for 1 hour to defrost or 20 minutes on counter top before serving.
Serve with fresh berries
What you’ll need
1 - 3 zucchini, thinly sliced lengthwise*
red bell pepper, julienned
yellow bell pepper, julienned
carrots, julienned (I used baby carrots, cut into quarters)
sprouts/micro greens of choice
cilantro, optional
fresh cracked pepper
tooth picks
Kale Pesto
1 cup basil or kale
1 cup kale
1 clove garlic
2 tablespoons tahini, optional
3 tablespoons or so extra virgin olive oil (if not using tahini add 1 or 2 extra tablespoons olive oil)
himalayan salt to taste
Amounts here will vary on how many your making, use your best judgement on how much you will need. If you can’t find sprouts or micro greens, try using cilantro or fresh basil leaves.
For the kale pesto, place ingredients into food processor and process until desired consistency. Taste for seasoning.
Lay your zucchini flat on a hard surface, layer with the pesto, add sprouts, veggies and starting from the veggie end, roll and stick with a toothpick in the center. Top with cracked pepper. Serve and enjoy!
* Look for the smaller zucchini, they will be the perfect size for these bite size rolls. The length and width is just right.
