Woke up this morning and downed a raw brownie for breakfast. Guilt free pleasures. Ahhhhh...I'm beginning to remember all the freedom that comes from being raw. The happiness, easy mood...guilt free sweets. Hummmm. I always wonder why it takes me so long to return to what works so well????

So, today is going to be raw, with some exercising. Yesterday was aerobic dance. Today will be low impact aerobics with upper body weight lifting.

Raw Rawks! (((HUGS))):)

    What's your brownie recipe?

    Equal parts: carob/walnuts and about 5 or 6 medjool dates. Blend the nuts into pounder first in the food processor. Add in the carob and dates. It comes out like a sticky dough. Press it into a pan or square bowl (what I use) and put it in the fridge to set. Cut with a knife into squares. Yummmmm. I just had my second one. Enjoy!
    Nayeli, how are you doing so far this week?

    I am doing alright. Sunday and Monday were pretty good. Mostly raw with a few cooked meals. I am completely addicted to clementines my son and I can polish off a case in a matter of days.

    You recipe looks so easy. I do have a question about the carob, where do you find it? Is it in powered form?

    At our local health food store they sell unsweetened carob chips. They are not 100% raw as they have a small amount of soy in them as a binding agent. When I say small amount...they almost crumble upon contact. Anyway, I do the best I can based on what I can afford. You could make them with the powdered version that Alissa sells in her store. ;)
