INGREDIENTS

• 2 packages Sea Tangle Kelp Noodles
• 1⁄2 c nut cheeze
• 1⁄8 c olive oil
• 1 t fresh oregano, minced
• 1 t fresh rosemary, minced
• 2 t garlic, de-centered, minced
• 1⁄2 t Celtic sea salt
• 1 T fresh-squeezed lemon juice
• 2 t Bragg Aminos or Nama Shoyu
• 3 T Nutritional Yeast

STEP 1

Soak the kelp noodles in hot water for 10-20 minutes. Drain and wring out the excess water.

STEP 2

Mix all ingredients in blender. Add sauce to kelp noodles.

STEP 3

It’s ready to serve now but if you want the pasta warm and soft, place all the pasta on a big serving plate and spread it out evenly. Then put the plate (or just put the pasta on the tray if you don’t have an Excalibur) with the pasta in the dehydrator for 1 hour at 120°F. Serve right out of the dehydrator so it is warm. If you don’t have a dehydrator you can put your oven on the lowest setting and put the plate on the stove shelf, or serve cold for a “cheezy pasta salad”!

if you don’t want to make the sauce “cheezy” you can substitute the cheese for fresh basil and spinach and make it a Pesto pasta. (my favorite!) Garnish with raw pine nuts, tomatoes and spinach leaves. (check out the recipe –>here!)

Now that I’m pregnant, I have to get blood taken all the time. I get kinda queasy after wards, and usually need a sugar hit like fruit or juice. My husband came prepared the last time, buying me a Naked smoothie and an Almond Joy. The Almond Joy was good, and made luckily with dark chocolate, but way too sugary with a ton of horrible additives.

This recipe is a healthier version of Almond Joy made with coconut oil, carob, almonds, and agave. You’ll never know it’s dairy-free, sugar-free and gluten-free!!

• 

  ingredients

  1  cup melted extra virgin coconut oil

• 1/4 cup organic raw almond butter
• 3 drops Liquid Stevia Vanilla Creme
• 3 drops Liquid Stevia Chocolate
• 4 tablespoons agave
• 1 tablespoon organic vanilla
• 2 teaspoons cinnamon
• 3/4 cup roasted carob powder (or chips and melt)
• 1/4 cup organic hemp seeds
• 1/4 cup almond meal
• 1/4 cup unsweetened coconut

To melt coconut oil, place jar under warm/hot water.

In a medium bowl, place melted coconut oil and almond butter. Stir until both are blended. Next, stir/whisk in Liquid Stevia Vanilla Creme and Chocolate, agave, and vanilla. Add in cinnamon and stir until it blends evenly. Slowly stir in carob a tablespoon at a time. The mixture should still be slightly runny. Add in almond meal, hemp seeds, and coconut. The mixture will run off the spoon, but very slowly.

Spoon into mini cupcake trays lined with paper liners. Pour in mixture half way. Chill in freezer for 15 minutes. When the candies are set, pop out and store in a freezer safe container. Keep frozen!

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 3-4 ripe bananas
• 2-3 Tbsp Agave or Honey
• 1 C ground rolled oats
• 1 C almond meal or raw almonds
• 1 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp baking soda
• 2 Tbsp flaxseed meal
• 1 1/2 t cinnamon
• 2-3 T melted butter (or vegan butter alternative)
• 2 free range eggs (or vegan Ener-G Egg replacement)
• 1 tsp Vanilla

1. Begin by processing the almonds with a food processor until they are close to a flour consistency (or you can buy almond meal pre-made). Add oats into food processor until mixed well. Put into large bowl.

2. In large bowl combine “flours” with cinnamon, baking soda, sea salt and flax meal.

3. In a separate bowl, melt butter. Let butter cool for a bit. Then add eggs and vanilla to butter.

4. In a 3rd bowl, mash ripe bananas with a fork. Add agave to bananas and mix. (you may leave the bananas chunky or puree until super smooth, depends on your taste preference). Add bananas and agave to egg/vanilla/butter to the flour bowl. Mix all ingredients together with a large spoon. Then use that spoon to scoop mixture into muffin pan.

5. Bake muffins 25-30 minutes. Test with a toothpick, it should have residual dry crumbs only. (no moisture)
