Best Pesto in the Westo
Ok, so I know this is a lame title and also a big claim… but it really is the best! I created it last week to use on a raw pizza instead of nut cheese, though it can also be eaten on it’s own as a delicious dip**. WHAT YOU NEED: 1 cup activated walnuts [...]
Sweet N’ Cheesy Sunny Carrot Dip
Yes, that’s right… another dip! I just love creating new dip recipes as they are quick and easy to whip up and perfect for when you have guests popping by for a little Summer shindig. It’s sweet, it’s savoury, it’s scrumptious! WHAT YOU NEED: 1/2 cup grated carrot 1 cup activated sunflower seeds 2 tablespoons extra [...]
Spicy Corn and Kidney Bean Dip
Curtis claims this dip reminds him of tomato flavoured tinned tuna… although it’s a random claim and we no longer eat tuna to compare, I can see where he’s coming from given the texture is very similar. Don’t let it put you off if you’re not a tuna fan, I personally didn’t think it tasted [...]
Smooth Squash ‘Hummus’ Dip
This dip tastes eerily similar to hummus. The best part about it is that it’s raw and made with fresh vegetables instead of chickpeas! WHAT YOU NEED: 2 medium yellow acorn squash 2 tablespoons lemon juice ½ cup sunflower seeds 1 tablespoon tahini 1 teaspoon celtic sea salt 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin 1/4 teaspoon ground coriander [...]
Curried Pea and Walnut Dip
I’m loving my dips at the moment! This one is not entirely raw if you are using frozen peas as you will need to warm them ever so slightly (make sure you use coconut oil), but it tastes awesome and is really healthy. The added bonus is that curry powder is so incredibly good for [...]
Green Curry Spread
Probably not the green curry you might be used to. The “green” in this awesome spread is thanks to an overload of chlorophyll-rich silverbeet . The curry powder gives this snack a wicked kick in taste and also in the health benefits from the unique mixture of herbs and spices. The one ingredient in particular [...]
Cashew and Rocket Dip
A tasty dip made from cashew nuts which are known for their high protein content and abundance of “good fat”, along with rocket (AKA Arugula) to give you a nice little boost of antioxidants. WHAT YOU NEED: 1.5 cups activated cashews 1 large handful Rocket leaves 1/3 cup filtered water Juice from 1/2 a lemon [...]
Brazil N’ Broccoli Dip
As with most of my recipes, this one is super easy to make, not to mention nutritional too! Brazil nuts are a great source of protein and high in the mineral selenium which has been said to prevent heart disease. Broccoli contains vitamin C which is a fantastic immune booster. WHAT YOU NEED: 1.5 cups [...]
Coriander Chia Crackers
For those with dehydrators, these crackers are worth a shot. They’re guilt-free and easy to make plus packed with plant-based omega 3 thanks to the super yummy chia seeds! WHAT YOU NEED: 1 cup chia seeds 2 tablespoons olive oil (EVOO) 1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander 1 teaspoon dried coriander leaf 3/4 cup filtered water [...]
Savoury Nori Rolls
These rolls are delicious and have a great chewy texture due to the nori seaweed sheets. If you closed your husband’s eyes and fed these to him he would just about believe he was eating meat sausages but there is not a single animal product in them. The ingredients include a host of benefits for [...]
