Cherry Chocolate Smoothie - Raw Vegan Treat

Smoothie - Cherry Chocolate

Sometimes less is more.  As is the case for my Cherry Chocolate Smoothie - and this post.

Only 3 ingredients, plus water, and you'll have a delicious smoothie treat.

Oh and just to mention... I don't like overly sweet foods and while I think this was sweet enough, feel free to add sweetener of choice if needed.


Cherry Chocolate Smoothie

2 ripe bananas: 1 frozen and 1 non-frozen
1 cup frozen cherries
1 TBS heaping cacao powder
water - start with 1/2 cup

Blend all ingredients in high powered blender until smooth and creamy.  You can adjust the consistency by adding more water to your liking.

Enjoy the simple things.

Want a quick, simple and satisfying lunch or snack?  Try my super easy Tomato Stack.  You should have seen the whole tomato as it was as big as my hand!  In fact, I could have stacked it higher, but this was perfect.

This is so simple that it doesn't actually require a recipe, so I'm just going to write up the basics and you take it from there.  Okie dokie?

1 large tomato - sliced thick
1 small avocado - mashed and seasoned to taste
sliced sweet onion

Layer ingredients and enjoy.

Raw Vegan Single Serve Nut Fudge Brownie

Raw Vegan Fudge Brownie - Single Serve

Single serve nut fudge brownie. Because sometimes you need to satisfy that "GOTTA HAVE CHOCOLATE NOW!" fix in a jiffy.

While this raw vegan brownie does contain nuts, it's still healthy and guilt-free - and quick to make in a single bowl.

Single Serve Nut Fudge Brownie

1/3 cup walnuts
1/2 Tbs dried coconut shreds (or hemp heart seeds)
1/2 Tbs cacao powder
1/2 Tbs agave (or liquid sweetener of choice)
1/2 Tbs almond butter or other nut butter

Grind the walnuts in a coffee grinder or for a quick, barbaric dishes-free way: put them in an unsealed baggie and smash them with a heavy utensil, but don't pulverize them to smithereens.  With a fork, combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Form into a brownie or any shape you wish. Eat this warm ooey gooey fudgy nutty brownie immediately or put in fridge for at least 30-60 minutes and it will taste even better! 

That's it.  Simple and quick. Your chocolate fix is now cured.

Mango Strawberry Rolls

Mango Strawberry Rolls

Just cut into a fresh mango and want to turn it into something fun?  Or perhaps you have a romantic day or evening planned with your special someone and want to add a little more sweetness to it.  Well here's a quick and easy idea:

Mango Strawberry Rolls

Mango
Strawberries
Sharp knife
Mango cutter if you have one - I got mine at Target and LOVE it!

Cut the fresh mango.  With a sharp knife, cut very thin slices and set aside.  Chop the strawberries.  Now this part is a little messy and sticky, but worth it.  Put some chopped strawberries on the mango strip and roll it up.  Set aside and roll as many as you wish.

I garnished mine with cilantro, but mint would be perfect.
