Hello all you wonderful Raw Foodies:
Here we are at the beginning of Fall again. I just finished a great Blessed Herbs colon cleanse and am starting the whole body cleanse. If you would like to cleanse and have never experienced a Blessed Herbs cleanse, I highly suggest you try one. They are the bomb!! I have been using and recommending the cleanses since 1999, and have had only positive results. They do a fabulous job and meet you at the level of cleanse you are ready for. That is their beauty. Everyone LOVES these cleanses and the results are awesome!
I just made this Mango Tart for the couple that owns Finca de Vida, a retreat and farm in Costa Rica, and I thought would share the recipe with you. You can work with it and make it into a tropical tart if you like, just add more coconut oil, banana, papaya, pineapple, or other tropical fruit of your choice. Be creative with it and enjoy!!
Mango Tart
Makes 10 -12 slices
Filling:
3/4 cup cashews, soaked
1/2 cup coconut meat
1/2 cup irish moss gel
1 TBS evaporated cane sugar, powdered or other sweetener of choice
3 TBS lime juice
2 1/2 cups ripe mango, chunked
3 soaked dates
2 TBS coconut oil
dash salt
1 ripe mango, sliced thin
coconut water for blending if needed
** For an 11" pan you will need at least 3 cups filling
Crust:
1 1/2 cup almonds, soaked and dehydrated
1 cup pecans
1/2 cup walnuts
10-12 medjool dates, pits removed
1/4 tsp vanilla powder
1 TBS coconut palm sugar
dash salt
Crust:
Process in food processor, until the sound changes and you have a crumble mixture that sticks together when you press it between your thumb and fingers. Press into a 9" or 13" removable bottom tart pan. Line the bottom with the thinly sliced mango and freeze.
For filling:
Place the mango in first, then all the ingredients except the coconut oil. Blend until smooth and creamy, using the coconut water if needed to blend. You are looking for a think and smooth pudding. Add the coconut oil and just blend enough to mix. Pour filling over the mango bottom in the tart pan, and refreeze at least 4 hours. Slice while frozen and serve slightly defrosted. ( about 15 -20 minutes )
Irish Moss gel:
Soak 1/2 cup dry irish moss in water for 4 hours. Rinse very well until all sand, seaweed or fishing line is gone. Place in blender with water just about to cover. Blend until it is a smooth gel. DO NOT over blend. Add more water if needed to blend. You should have a thick but smooth gel. It will keep 10 days in the refrigerator. You can also freeze it for 3 months.
Enjoy the mango tart and this beautiful fall.
