Raw Chocolate "Maple" Syrup

Here's the recipe for the raw chocolate "maple" syrup that I put on top of that yummilicious Xammin' Pancake.


Ingredients:
1 hass avocado or half of a large avocado
1/4 C Raw Cacao powder
1 Tbsp. Maca Root Powder
1 Tbsp. Cinnamon
1/4 C Raw Honey or Agave
1/2 C Water

Recipe: Mix all ingredients in the food processor until it becomes somewhat-pudding like and there's no chunks of avocado left. This should take about 4-5 minutes. Taste it and add more sweetener if necessary.

After I made this, I put it in a dispenser and dispensed it onto my Xammin' Pancake:



Then I smoothed out the "Maple" syrup and sprinkled cinnamon on top:





And then I cut it into 3 parts and served it to me and my roommates!!! Yum!!




Raw Xammin' Pancakes!


Ingredients:
1/2 C Dates (pitted)
1/2 C Raisins
1/2 C Walnuts
1/2 C Rolled Oats
2 Tbsp. Honey or Agave




Recipe: Throw the dates in the food processor and let it go until they're nice little balls/chunks. Then throw the raisins in there with them and go until the raisins lose their structure a little bit. Add the walnuts until they've broken down to little chunks then add the oats and go until it makes a fine looking batter as shown above. Add the honey to get a little more stickiness-factor in there and make a 1/2" thick patty the size of your pancake.

Comfortably serves 4

And if you want to add a lil' somethin' to it...check out the chocolate "maple" syrup I made for it...

2c Soaked Oats
1c raisins
1c apricots

Take the pulped almonds and oats and put them in a bowl and add the dried fruit. Mix it up real good. Add the rest of the ingredients and mix it up some more real good. Make small (thinish) patties and put it into the dehydrator @ 105 degrees for 8 hours or until dry.

Collard Wraps!

Tonight we made collard wraps and now we're waiting on the oatmeal cookies are in the dehydrator.

Collard Wrap recipe? Simple ingredients - intermediate preperation - those leaves can be tricky!

We used:
Fresh Collards
Zucchini
Carrot
Celery
Red Pepper
Kelp Noodles
Corn
Ginger
Nama Shoyu
And my own variant of Tonya's Seed Cheese

Julienne (long thing slices) all the veggies except the collards, corn and ginger. Mince the ginger, and slice the corn off the cob. Take a collard leaf and lay it on your plate so that the dark green is on the bottom. Add a healthy layer of the seed cheese on it long-ways and directly on top of that the corn & ginger (it will stick in the seed cheese and not fall out). Then add kelp noodles followed by the rest of the ingredients with nama shoyu being last. Then wrap it!
