I know I have not posted recently. This is partly due to the many changes happening right now- unpredictable and uncontrollable (if only you knew). Things happen so fast now and sometimes you find yourself in a situation without even realising it. Anyway, we never know what the future holds, so.
Alright, to start off, I have been meaning to post on raw recipes that I have accidentally come across and absolutely love. The idea of raw/ vegan/ no-bake sweets, in my opinion, is that you take all natural/ unprocessed food and mix them and transform into a something so tasty, delicious, healthy and guilt-free.
I first dubiously tried making some chocolate brownies which consist only of nuts (walnuts and almond), cocoa powder and dates. I was amazed how they taste so good. To be honest, there is absolutely no taste difference between the traditional brownie (baked with sugar, flour, egg and butter). The only difference is the amount of calories you will get from one slice of the usual brownie. This is such a healthy treat with nuts, cocoa powder and dates. It's like a super-brownie (the recipe is linked below). After which, I fell completely ecstatic about finding more raw recipes. I have stumbled across many and it is hard to believe that this is probably what I have been looking for my whole life (without knowing- alright, maybe a few years ago): homemade healthy treat made in no time (with affordable ingredients).
Alright, the basic ingredients are nuts and dates. Both are convenient and you can just add in different flavours by mixing in different varieties of dried fruits, nuts etc.
I have already posted some recipes on recipeyum.

Well I can only say that I am completely amazed by how simple things can be turned into something that taste wonderful.
