Banana Ice Cream with Chocolate Peanut Sauce
by Taiji Longevity Center
You need a food processor.
Place 6 frozen bananas in the food processor with a little water and blend until creamy. Store in freezer while making the chocolate peanut sauce.
Mix one cup of peanuts, a tablespoon of pure cocoa/chocolate powder, and a spoonful of pure cane sugar in the food processor. (You may need to add a touch of water.) Process until semi creamy/crunchy.
Dish out the frozen banana cream into dishes and spread the chocolate peanut sauce on top and mix it in.
Serves 4-6 as a dessert.
Enjoy!

How to Make Raw Food Vegan Nut Cheese
By RawGlow
Measure 1 1/2 cup almonds* and soak overnight in water.
(you can use other nuts such as raw cashews, brazil nuts, and macadamia nuts.)
Rinse and drain the almonds.
Blend the almonds with 1 1/2 cups water, 2 tablespoons chickpea miso, 1 teaspoon coconut oil (optional), and the juice from 3 lemons. Blend until smooth using a tamper or you can make it in two separate batches so that it is less work for your blender.
Pour contents of your blender into a bowl and season with a good quality pink or sea salt to taste. You can adjust for tanginess by adding more lemon juice. To make an herbed cheese fold in 3 tablespoons chopped dill (about 5 sprigs) and 2 tablespoons chopped green onion (about 3 green onions green part only). You can also add any combination of herbs and spices that you desire or leave as is.

3/4 cup golden flax meal
1/8 cup almond flour

1/2 cup coconut oil
3 tsp chickpea miso (NO SOY- they make a chickpea miso with no soy in it by South River- they also have an adzuki bean miso- haven't tried it yet)

Pour a thin layer onto a paraflex sheet (about 1/4 inch thick) on a dehydrator tray and dehydrate 7 hours @ 104 degrees. Flip then dehydrate another 2-3 hours. You want it to be pliable and a little moist, yet firm and in tact.

Blend all ingredients in a Vitamix until creamy and smooth. Place in refrigerator to chill and firm up.

Blend all ingredients with an immersion blender and place in a pastry bag, then put in the refrigerator to chill.
