Yum, Yum & Yum! Wow - sounds like you are having some wonderful Raw meals there! I'm going to have to look up the walnut meat/tostada thing - is it under a certain name? Congrats on 5 days!!~monk~

You said the magic words! Cheesecake for dinner! YUM!

Congrats on 5 days. Wishing you many more to come, ALL GOOD! Welcome back. :)

Hey guys! Thanks! Here is the link to the recipe. I actually modified it a bit and added more veggies, the way I prefer it .... 2 green onions, 1 tomato, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1 stalk celery and a bit more sweetener.

Thanks for the link! The funny thing is - when I went to add it to my "favorites" - it was already in there

What recipes do you use for the tostadas & cheesecake?

Oh you definitely should try it. It's so easy! Another big plus for me, not much to plan ahead for. But I do like to soak my walnuts before for an hour or so, but that's personal preference.

I don't remember where I got the recipes for the tostadas or the cheesecake, so I'll just write it down.

Corn Tostadas/Tacos/Chips


16 oz bag of frozen corn
1/2 cup orange juice
1/2 cup golden flax seeds, ground
1 T garlic powder
dash of lemon juice
salt to taste

Process corn and OJ in food processor. Put in a bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Spread thinly on teflex sheets in desired shape. I've even made taco shells last time. But I'll have to find something to keep them open an inch or so, because they dried closed, and were hard to fill, and some ended up breaking, trying to pry them open to fill them.

Cheesecake

Crust
2 cups walnuts, finely ground
1 tsp cinnamon (didn't use, but used vanilla extract instead)
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/4 cup agave (I like to use dates)

Cheesecake filling
1 1/4 Pine nuts, ground (I never tried it with pine nuts, I always use soaked cashews)
1 cup coconut oil, liquefied
1/2 cup agave
Juice of 1 lemon
1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp vanilla extract

Put all in food processor or vitamix and blend.

Swirl Filling/Topping

1 pint strawberries (I always make more to have enough to put on top on the cheesecake)
1 tbl agave (I use honey and it works great)
splash of lemon juice

Let the strawberries marinade for a while to give the strawberries time to release juices.


To assemble the pie, pour half the filling into the pie crust, add some of the strawberry topping mixture, then pour the rest of the pie filling on top to cover the strawberry mixture. Drizzle a little bit of strawberry juice on top of the pie for decoration. Chill for about 2 hours before serving.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write them out! I think it's Alissa's recipe for the tostadas. Thanks again!~monk~

No problem at all! Oh, and I just made the salsa walnut meat again, and I realized I also process the recipe differently. It sounds like, the way she does it, it would come out a paste consistency. I made sure I processed mine minimally to still get a chunky consistency. I actually did the walnuts first, to make them small enough, since I figured the nuts take longer than the veggies, and if I did them together, there would be no chunks left of the veggies.

Thanks for the tips! I will make the salsa walnut meat this week for sure, but will have to wait until next weekend for the tostadas when I have time to watch them. Thanks again for everything!

Oh thank you so much for sharing all of this bella. You sound so enthusiastic, happy and busily involved with your raw meals. Very good example for some of us slower ones here - like me.

No problem, guys! right now I'm definitely enjoying making recipes. Keeps me from thinking about foods I should not eat. :)
