Robby's Latest Adventure

INSPIRE

Robby and Alissa opened a Food Cart Business where they are making organic juice and raw pies. These pictures are from christmas time and we tried some of their yummy pies. Instead of using eggs sugar or oil, they use coconut milk and chop up nuts to squeeze the oil out and then they all stick together just like a regular pie only healthier because non of the ingredients have lost their nutritional value. We tried a chocolate and a key lime pie that was delicious!

Here is the approximate recipe if you'd like to try it.

Key Lime Pie
Tart and sweet at the same time, it really hits the spot!
Makes one 9" pie, serving 8-10

Crust Ingredients:
3 C fine almond flour*
4-5 fresh medjool dates
2 T coconut oil
1/2 tsp. sea salt

Filling Ingredients:
2 small ripe avocados
1 banana
1 1/4 C juice from key limes (regular limes will also work fine)
1/2 C mango chunks
1/2 C agave nectar
1/3 C coconut cream concentrate or oil
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

Preparation:
To make crust, place almond flour, dates, coconut oil, and sea salt in a food processor and blend until it balls up. Firmly press crust into pie pan and set aside.

To make the filling, process all filling ingredients in a high-powered blender such as a VitaMix until smooth and fluid. Pour into pie shell and freeze about 4-6 hours or longer. I like to serve this topped with a little shredded coconut and mango chunks or slices.

*Almond Flour is made when you grind almonds for making almond milk. Almond pulp is what is left over. After the grinding process, strain it as much as possible and dry it in your dehydrator. It is kept best in the freezer in an air-tight bag or container.

If you do not wish to go through this process, you are certainly welcome to just use ground raw almonds, but you won't get the same fine texture on the crust. I learned that from these guys. Isn't that cool you can make flour from almonds? While Robby is in India, Alissa is holding down the fort literally and starting an awesome business.

Good Luck Robby and Lis in your New Venture!!
