Cabbage Salad

Blueberry Pie

Blueberry Pie
- from Dixie Story at www.fromsadtoraw.com
Crust
1 c. almonds (soaked makes a much moister crust; if you want them to help soak up moisture from the filling, then the filling won't be so runny, you can soak and dehydrate before using.)
1 c. medjool dates

Layer
large handful blueberries

Filling
rest of a pint of blueberries (after handful removed)
1/4 c. coconut
1/4 c. pine nuts
1 T. lemon
3-5 dates Optional, only if sweeter is wanted

To make crust, process almonds and dates. Press into pie dish. You can either dehydrate it or leave as is.
Arrange blueberries on top of the crust for a layer between the crust and the filling. To make the filling, process all ingredients until smooth and pour over blueberries/crust.

(You can substitute any fruit for the blueberries.)

Raw Food Blog

Hey Everyone,

Thought I would try to get things started even a little bit more. I am starting a blog that any of us (and people we invite) can post to regarding information regarding the Raw Food Life Style. Please post your recipes for our pot luck (or email to me) and I will try to take photos to connect with the info. If anyone has trouble loading the info or logging on, please email me. I am looking forward to dinner tonight and using the blog as a resource for future learning and ideas.
