It has been rainy and just all around gloomy here for the last few days. Such a bummer, I was really looking forward to my usual nude sunbathing this weekend, but unfortunately there was NONE of that. What’s funny is all week long it was gorgeous outside and I kept thinking “Girl you better get out there” but I figured I would just wait til the weekend and Sure enough… RAIN! Oh well.
So last week I told yall about my very exciting mango purchases at the market. Yesterday, three of them were calling my name as they were perfectly ripe. I just kept thinking, MANGO PUDDING! A couple clicks later and I found a recipe that sounded fab. OH MY GOSH! Seriously it was the BEST raw pudding I have ever had. NO joke, If you have access to mangoes, PLEASE make this. You can thank me later. Oh and we must thank The Daily Raw Cafe site, of course.
Recipe found at The Daily Raw Cafe website. (Thank you DRC, this was sooo freaking good)
MANGO PUDDING
1/2 c macadamia nuts, soaked for an hour
2 oz water
3 cups peeled, fresh mango
1/4 c agave nectar
1/4 t sea salt
Blend macadamia nuts and water until smooth. While blender is running, add mango, agave nectar and sea salt. Process until creamy. Refrigerate for an hour to set.
I found some locally grown celery! I usually buy celery at the grocery store and it’s usually not organic and shipped in from Australia or New Zealand. You know, the thick light green very juicy celery stalks. You know the kind you layer with almond butter and drizzle raw honey on top of. mmmmmmmmmm Anyway, so I was at the store the other day and I found this beautiful Green Local Organic Celery. It’s nothing like I have ever seen before. It’s not thick and juicy, but instead it has this beautiful green color, with thin stalks! Very fragrant. Check it out.
The color was so pretty and the smell was sooo good. I decided to make green juice with it.
Green Juice Ingredients:
1 head of Butter Leaf Lettuce
Gorgeous Green Celery
1 Cucumber
3 Apples
2 Lemons
1 big chunk of Ginger
Hope you all are doing fab!
Love and Besos, Ibis
