I remembered a few weeks ago that before I went vegan - and baking was my favourite new hobby - my specialty was a chocolate souffle that ended up being a lava cake because I took them out of the oven right before the inside baked so you got a soft chocolate cake surrounding a gooey middle. I used cacao butter instead of coconut oil for the liquid center just for a change and LOVED it.
This weekend I am planning on doing a whole lot of not much.

I want to talk a little bit about impulse eating and buying.
I am a planner. I prepare a list of the meals I plan to have for the week as a way for me to keep me on track with my diet and budget. My potential downfall are my in-between meal time cravings. These bites are packed full of protein (to keep you energized and get you through the rest of the afternoon), filled with vitamins (including Vitamin A, B, and E), and have a healthy dose of fiber – none of the features from a snickers bar! Snacking is inevitable so instead of impulse shopping at the nearest gas station, I encourage you to stock up on some weekly snacks on Sunday that will carry you over for the week.

My back-up plan in this unfortunate situation is to walk down to my local co-op and grab two slices of their vegan pesto pizza. Not only is it the best pizza I’ve ever tasted, but it’s covered with veggies — totally my style. Every time this happens, the same pizza guy is standing behind the counter, ready to serve me my usual order of two slices of vegan pesto. Just as I’m leaving on my way out of the co-op, usually embarrassed and laughing at myself, I am invariably tempted by the most amazing vegan carrot cupcakes made fresh in their bakery.

Benefits of Prunes All fruits (including prunes) are a natural source of important nutrients such as vitamins, minerals and phytochemicals (specific compounds found in edible plant foods).
Research has shown that increased intakes of fruits and vegetables throughout life may help reduce risk of several chronic diseases of old age. The exact components responsible for the protective effects of fruit and vegetables are not fully understood. It is likely that the unique combination of nutrients they contain such as vitamins, minerals, fibre and phytochemicals all work together to provide protection, rather than any specific individual component. Although the best tests for identifying the antioxidant levels in different foods and also showing their benefit in terms of human health have yet to be agreed, laboratory testing has shown that prunes contain high amounts of specific phenolic compounds called neochlorogenic and chlorogenic acid as well containing lutein and zeazanthin.

Boy, am I getting an education! Having absolutely no training in raw-food preparation, the learning curve is somewhat steep. Trying to bring out the flavours in food without using heat can be a serious challenge, but the ride is fun, I must admit.
It seems the one area I am not confused about or having any difficulty with is the dessert menu. The Raw Brownie is no exception. You will be totally surprised at how incredibly rich and satisfying these are, with a complex flavour that remarkably, comes from only five ingredients. Directions:1. So that’s it.
