So first of all, let me provide full disclosure. These are NOT low fat. These are not something you would want to chow down on daily, in large quantities, or as a substitute for your cucumber-beet-carrot juice. However, having said that, they are sublime chocolate bliss bars that are the perfect bait to lure people into the radically rawsome world of raw foods!

BERRY FILLING: 1 cup blackberries, 1 cup strawberries, 1/4 cup maple syrup, pinch of salt, 1 tsp. lemon juice, 1 tsp. pure vanilla or 1 vanilla bean. Pulse in a food processor until desired consistency.

I love pumpkin pie and I love mini-dessert bites so you can eat one and be satisfied! I love to have raw desserts that don’t have cupfuls of oil AND nuts. So I made these delicious pumpkin pie bites keeping the lower-fat principles in mind, with just a but of cashew butter to add creamy consistency, and the crust makes use of fat free oats mixed in with some nuts, to keep the overall fat low.

I love raw desserts, especially in the summer when baking at the oven doesn’t seem as enjoyable. A dessert is still a dessert and you don’t want to eat a ton. But if you want to eat healthy, and still be able to enjoy truly delicious and decadent whole raw plant based foods here is another one of my favorite dessert creations. If you haven’t worked with buckwheat, you are in for a pleasant experience.

Who doesn’t love donut holes for breakfast? Usually, breakfast at our house is a huge green juice, which is the single most powerful way to get your blood alkalized, get your body energized, and give yourself a huge dose of nutrition before any solids are introduced. But, once in a while we have a smoothie, a bowl of chia cereal, a bowl of oatmeal, or maybe my warm orange polenta breakfast bowl.
