Our love for some old favorites
Good morning luvs,
Happy Friday to you all!
Lori and I are so happy to see that everyone is loving our chocolate gluten free vegan layered cake!!!! The cake was rich and delicious 
We found out that if you put it into the dehydrator for a little bit it warms it up!!! Heavenly!!!
We will do a post soon about all the ‘special’ ingredients that we used in the layered cake! We are still learning how to use some of them to get the best results! We plan to recreate this cake without using any nuts!!!
Hard to believe another week went by. Though Lori and I have been managing to eat some really great food 
Lots of our favorite breakfast : green smoothies
Some coconut kefir shakes
Creamy and thick carob mint avocado pudding
Sauerkraut and fermented veggies mix with grinded up hemp seeds (helps make it look like crumbled cheese ok well at least to me it does
Made some chia puddings
This was mixed with some mesquite (which we used to use all the time and forgot how much we love the flavor it provides), and yacon powder We love Navitas Naturals!
and than drizzled coconut butter on top
Seriously coconut butter is such a little treat for us Best thing ever!!! I think Katie and Krissy would agree! Lori and I can’t get enough of this stuff! It is like having icing on a cake
Also enjoyed some of Lori’s favorite raw sauerkraut – red cabbage base with a little bit of kale in there.
Also created a veggie sandwich
I took our Pure2Raw collard green flatbread, some romaine leaves, and tahini!
Easy, full of flavor and texture, few ingredients, and quick dinner Love it!!!!
How I made it:
Grab ingredients
Layered onion flatbread with loads of tahini love this stuff too!
Anything with tahini on it creates a perfect marriage in our opinion!!
Than time to build sandwich, you just take your romaine and layer the leaves between your tahini covered bread!
And you have yourself a veggie sandwich that is gluten free YAY! 
Than time to devour the sandwich
Fantastic!
And than if you did not have enough tahini you can dip in a pure2raw pumpkin kale cracker into it
But last nights dinner was a treat and made us think of Heather
We roasted some Kabocha squash with some sautéed asparagus.
And we drizzled our quick easy 2 ingredient sauce:
Nutritional yeast and coconut oil
And sprinkled cinnamon and coriander seeds to finish the dish
We have forgotten how much we love roasted squash. It has been too long and we are sad that the winter squash season is coming to an end ; (
The flavors blended so well and literally just melted in our mouths. We love coriander!! We can see how this is Heather’s favorite squash.
Our friend Lori had a fun way to enjoy sea vegetables with squash, we will have to try that next time ; )
We are preparing ourselves for another cold, wet, snowy weekend!! But we are excited for the big game, have some fun food we are making ; ) and will share our Superbowl eats!!
Till next time,
Michelle

I just got some coconut butter and I am LOVING it. I am thinking of having it on a sweet potato tonight – so incredible! Also, that cake looks to die for.

Girls! As you know, Coconut Butter can do no wrong in my books!(thanks for the shout out!) I only wish I had discovered it sooner
hehe I also have Artisana’s Raw Tahini in my fridge and think I am going to replicate your raw sandwich for lunch. Your pictures always make me drool 
xoxo Have a wonderful weekend loves!

What does mesquite taste like? I picture it being like a smoky cinnamon…am I wrong?

I’m racking my brain here, but I can’t remember if you guys eat beans or not?
How do you get in your protein?

It’s nice to know I’m not the only one who is absolutely OBSESSED with coconut butter!
Artisana is the best company EVER!!
And your squash-y meal looks divine

I’m in love with coconut butter, too! It really is like frosting. Glad you girls enjoyed the squash! I recently tried that variety for the first time, too, and it was really tasty.

Coconut butter is heavenly! I secretly eat spoonfuls of that stuff… Just not often… but it’s great by itself! And of course, Tahini! Yum!
And thanks for the link to the sea veggie post! There’s just so much to do with those sea veggies and seaweeds!

okay you make eating raw look DIVINE girls!!
i love it! and i love your comment too!!
nutritional yeast? ive been dying to try it! where did you find it?
on Feb 5th, 2010 at 3:51 pm
Sarah, you would love mesquite! Yes a little smoky flavor, hint of cinnamon. Works well in baking too! Goes good with bananas, caramel, and gingerbread/molasses flavors! A little goes a long way!

Hello Ashley, No we do not eat beans. We will do a post soon on protein. Thank you!
on Feb 5th, 2010 at 3:54 pm
Hello Katie! Thank you for you comment! Nutritional yeast should be avaiable at most health food stores. If not you can buy in online, I know Amazon sells it. We like Red Star or Bob’s Red MIlls brands!

hey girls, love your eats and would love the post you mentioned you may do about where you get what, what brands of what item you love, etc. I have my faves but honestly i dont like to mail order b/c it’s just another expense but then again, it’s like, I have to b/c I refuse to pay WF prices.
The cocoa butter looks divine as does that vegan gf raw bread!! OMG I need to make some!!!

I just bought some Artisana tahini!
I’m so excited to try it, but I have to wait until my other jar of already opened tahini is done before I eat it :S grrr…
I also ordered some vegan raw chocolate from one lucky duck and it’s SO good.
those chia seed puddings look amazing! Thanks for reminding me – I’ll try to remember to buy some today when I go to Whole Foods.
