Raw Vegan Date Almond Snickers - I tried out a recipe by fellow raw chef @straitsroadkitchen. 😍😍😍 Since my friend Chef Sabrina has launched #Rawmadan where she is sharing simple Ramadan recipes with a raw vegan twist and sattvic lifestyle practices and tips I thought I'd try out this Snickers recipe. It was a great way to make use of @organiculesuperfoods I added in - baobap powder for the date caramel - maca and cacao powder for the chocolate layer - cacao nibs for the topping And I used the @farmerly.com.my nut milk as well for the chocolate layer. The results were great! I couldn't resist eating some of it even before it set properly. Yummmmm!😋😋😋 - Thanks Sabrina for sharing this with us. Do check out her feed and website if you haven't done so already - she has loads of creative raw vegan recipes there. I've always found her so innovative with her raw vegan creations and she has really funny puns for the names of her dishes. Grateful that we've had a chance to make raw food together at least 3 times during my past trips to Singapore.🙏 - ------------------- For the month of May, remember to use my discount code CHEFYIN to get 10% off all Organicule Superfoods when you order online!

Brunch reimagined...raw. Today I invited family over for brunch. As most of you who follow my feed know, I ate raw for 28 days straight this Ramadhan following the #28daycleanse by @medicalmedium in an effort to improve eczema and acne I have battled with for so long. The result was an energy filled #RAWmadan. I ended the month feeling truly detoxed spiritually, mentally, and physically. I find myself more positive and patient and full of compassion and gratitude. Inflammation I have battled with for so long seems to have vanished and the acne is almost gone. The eczema is still healing but I feel I am doing the right protocols and I just need more time for it too to be fully gone from my system. Although the cleanse is officially over, I am continuing with mainly raw eating with some cooked foods when I am out in social gatherings. I wanted to share how raw food can be nutritious, delicious, and so healing for the body so I invited family over to try a fully raw meal. I prepared three fruit smoothies- @nutritionstripped avocado spinach ginger banana, wild blueberry cilantro #heavymetaldetoxsmoothie and banana avocado mango ginger smoothie- all were delicious, filling, and packed with nutrients. For toppings, I chose fresh berries, granola, and dried coconut. I also prepared two varieties of zucchini noodles, a mint Alfredo recipe from @fullyrawkristina page and a basil spinach pesto which I just made intuitively without a recipe. Wish you all could have come over to share this meal with my family. ❤️❤️❤️ (at Edgewater, New Jersey)
