Ingredients

  • For the crust:
  • 1 cup dates *see note
  • 1 cup macadamia nuts
  • ½ cup hazel nuts
  • ½ cup cashews
  • 2 TB coconut oil melted
  • 2 TB maple syrup
  • For the filling:
  • 1 lb. silken tofu drained
  • 1/2 cup cashews raw
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract or 1 tsp vanilla paste
  • 1/4 cup coconut oil melted (added after the other ingredients are blended)
  • 1/2 cup raw cacao
  • 4 oz dark chocolate melted

Instructions

  • Crust Instructions:
  • Put all crust ingredients into a food processor and pulse until you have small crumbs.
  • Using a large spoon, scoop and press the crust mixture evenly into a pie pan or glass dish.
  • Put the crust in the fridge or freezer for a few hours to firm up.
  • Filling Instructions:
  • Put the first 4 filling ingredients into a blender and mix until smooth.
  • Then add coconut oil, while the blender is running, for a thick and creamy filling.
  • Next add the raw cacao and blend.
  • Then drizzle the melted chocolate into the filling until combined.
  • Pour the filling into the pan with crust and spread it with a spatula.
  • Put the cheesecake in the fridge overnight or for at least 2 hours to chill and set.
  • When ready to enjoy, remove from the fridge and cut a slice for yourself!

Notes

 
You can soak the dates in warm water for 10 minutes to soften them. It makes it easier to blend but not necessary. Any nut mix will do. Just use what you have on hand and enjoy. Both the crust and filling will soften at room temperature so make sure to not keep it out too long. If you want to keep it longer, you can put it in the freezer a few days until ready to enjoy. You just need to take it out a few hours to soften before eating.

Toasted Muesli with Coconut, Dark Chocolate and Macadamia Nuts

Since it’s so versatile and easy to transport, Muesli makes the best treat to have at work, take it with you on the road or just enjoy it as a meal with a variety of toppings. Put it in a mason jar, screw on the lid, and take it with you! Oats are very satisfying and this snack can keep you full for hours.
The end result is a lightly sweetened, slightly crunchy muesli. Try it with cold oat milk, or heat it up together with the milk to create a hot cereal. The add ons are endless from coconut yogurt to dried fruit, fresh fruit or seeds. I love the texture, flavors, flexibility and creativity in this delicious muesli!

Roasted Triple Squash with Brussels Sprouts, Pecans and Cauli Crumble

This delish dish is packed with flavor, antioxidants, colorful nutrients and crunch! 3 different squash (Acorn, Butternut and Honey Nut) make this one healthy meal as they are rich sources of vitamins A, C, K, and minerals like magnesium, potassium, manganese, coppper, phosphorus, calcium and iron. The topping, Cauli Crumble, takes just a few minutes to cook and adds a substantial amount of fiber and protein to the meal. This is a simple dish that is great for the holidays or any day of the week!

Spicy Spud Balls

These spicy spud balls are packed full of flavor with fresh herbs, spices, oats and red potatoes. They are incredibly delicious and nutritious with a nice crunchy outside. I’ve made many versions of balls and burgers using beans and grains but never potatoes. So why not try it! I can honestly say they were way better than I’d expected them to be and a big hit with my taste tester. We enjoyed eating them with pasta, salad and just by themselves with sauce.
