Stuffed Avocado Shells

Stuffed Avocado Shells

Aside from the fact that they are pretty expensive, or that one in 3 is either too raw or half spoiled, avocados are actually pretty great. You can eat them raw, stick them in a salad, use them instead of butter in your baking, smush them into a smoothie, turn them into ice-cream (or face cream)—you can even use them to make dips. With a little bit of imagination, an avocado can…

Almond Hazelnut Bars

Almond Hazelnut Bars

This recipe is a bit of a weird experiment gone good. I wanted to play around with the idea of using both the oven, as well as my dehydrator, to make some half-baked / half-raw bars. I’ve seen some cooks using their ovens on the lowest setting to dehydrate food, while others use professional dehydrators. I have a dehydrator, but unfortunately its a rather basic one, and the motor doesn’t…

No-Blender Peanut Sauce

No Blender Peanut Sauce

A few posts back, I talked about keeping it simple with meals in a bowl…for breakfast, lunch and dinner. One important component of a meal in a bowl is the sauce. You can literally have the same ingredients in every bowl, but make it taste completely different by switching out the sauce.
