We’ll Be All Month

.Reading time 1 minute.

I have been on this juicing trend for the past few weeks…(well before the holidays). What is juicing you ask ? Juicing is an easy way to consume huge amounts of vitamins, minerals, enzymes, antioxidants and boost your energy….with the juice that was juiced in a juicer.
Juicers ‘juice’ your produce and separate the pulp (the insoluble fiber) from it. You discard the pulp and drink the juice. You still get fiber in the form of soluble fiber. I know, crazy, right? You just learned something new today. Since we’ll be juicing all month…and juicing adventure as been ‘extraordinaire’ I will share some of my favorite recipes here every week.

Here’s my beets and treats.

Coconut Yogurt

RAWFOOD

This homemade recipe is so easy and delicious- a great dessert or snack for your day as well!
**Coconut Yogurt**
3 thai coconuts- meat only
1 cup fresh thai coconut water
1-2 probiotic capsules or 1/2 t loose probiotic powder

Blend these ingredients in the blender until very smooth. Store in clean glass containers and let sit on the counter for at least 4 hours or overnight. Make sure to cover the yogurt while it’s fermenting with a piece of cheesecloth or paper napkin so it allows the yogurt to breathe. Store in the fridge for up to 3 days- but let’s be real, it won’t last that long because its too darn yummy! Cheers.

**Chocolate Coconut Yogurt**
1 cup coconut yogurt
1 date
1 T raw cacao

I love the chocolate version of this coconut yogurt- Simply divide the coconut yogurt recipe and add a date and raw cacao- so simple and crazy delicious. Recipe inspired by raw food recipes.
