Wild and Raw
Based in Devon UK, I write about wild and raw foods suitable for the UK climate. Some people are put off raw food if their hands get cold etc, but with a few adjustments then this should not happen. If we eat raw food that's tropical (useful in keeping the body cool) then we will suffer the cold right! I also think that we should eat food from our local environment and so wild food is the way to keep to that.

1/2 cup almonds
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Vegan Raw Sugar Free Millionaires shortbread -Wow, really?
You will need a dehydrator for this
4 cups rolled oats (gluten free, if intolerant)
3 cups dates
1/2 cup almonds
1/2 cup cashews
1 Tablespoon cacao
spring water
Get your un-baking tray out and line it with grease proof paper (easier to get the flapjacks out later)
Put your oat's into a food processer with s blade and blend till fine
Take 2 cup dates, 1 cup water, and blend till you have a caramel sauce, divide into two parts. Now mix one part into oat layer and spread onto the baking tray, un baking tray.
Take your reserved caramel (date mix) and spread over the oat's
Next take the almonds, cashews, cacao and 1 cup water and high speed blend till smooth like chocolate sauce
Pour the chocolate sauce over the flapjacks
Put into the dehydrator for 4 hours
Cut and serve
I recommend that after an 2 hour's to take your tray out of the dehydrator, lift your shortbread out of the tray carefully and pop it back in straight onto the tray of your dehydrator - it will dry out better without the un-bake tray

Raw food banofi pie
This is a really simple desert I made with my two children the other day, it was delicious and only took 15 mins to make in total
So what you need
3 ripe bananas
Cup walnuts (soaked is best) but I didn't get round to it. I say blended nut's are going to be easy to digest anyhow
Cup organic dates
Cup cashews (organic) soaked if poss, but they are blended down anyway
Maple syrup
1/4 cup spring water
Medium sized pie dish
Into a food processer put the walnuts and make to fine crumbs, line the pie dish and press down
Slice the bananas and place them down on the crust, fill any gaps
Into a vitamix or similar place the dates and half a cup maple syrup, now pour this over the bananas
Next take the cashews and blend them with half a cup of water and 1/4 cup maple syrup, blend this till creamy and simply pour over the date mixture
Leave in the fridge, or go on and enjoy right now!!!
You deserve it right!!

Simple green juice without a juicer (make with blender)
Who want's to juice without a masticating juicer?
And it's easier without having to chop small pieces to fit into the tube
Take a handful of kale
Squeeze half a lemon
10-15 stem and leaves fresh coriander
Add a litre of spring water
Teaspoon of spirulina
Blend away till smooth
Now - take a sieve and pour contents into it over a jug of your choice
I like to pour into a couple of mason jars with lids and handles - one for the fridge and one for on the go!, I bought 4 pint sized mason jars with lids from Amazon see below, I also use them to store food items in such as hemp seeds, cacao.
This juice helps to pull heavy metals from out of the body!
