Instructions
  1. Blend Cashews until ground into a flour-like consistency.
  2. Blend ground Cashews and Coconut Cream until smooth.
  3. Drain Dates, then blend all ingredients, except the Coconut Oil, until smooth.
  4. Add Coconut Oil and blend again.
  5. Optional: Allow Mousse to set in fridge for 15 min+.
Recipe Notes

*You can enjoy straight away or put in the fridge for 15-30 minutes to set for a more Mousse-like consistency.

*Store sealed in a glass jar in the fridge. Eat within 1-2 days (if it lasts that long!) 

*Choose the cleanest ingredients possible:

-Choose spray-free/organic fresh produce for fresh ingredients where possible, and if buying conventional, rinse in diluted white vinegar water to remove 

 -Choose dry ingredients (i.e. nuts, seeds, dried fruits ) that are spray-fee/organic where possible, and which don’t have preservatives such as sulphur dioxide

 - Choose virgin, cold-pressed Coconut Oil in glass where possible. It should be pure white in colour. Do not choose cheaper, deodorised/neutral flavoured coconut oils that are off-white.

 -Choose Coconut Cream and Coconut Milk that is clean/free from additives, preservatives and E numbers. Plain Coconut Cream/Milk is better than the ones with added guar gum as this changes the consistency of recipes. You can use Nut Milk as an alternative. 

-Choose to homemade Nut Milk instead of buying. Most store bought ones have additives and stabilisers. Quick Tip: It’s easy to make your own: just grind ¼ cup nuts, then blend with 1 cup water. 

 -Choose whole fruits over optional sweeteners if you need to add more sweetness. My preferred choice is Date Paste (pre-soaked Dates). Quick Tip: Keep a jar filled with Dates covered with water, in the fridge ready to go and use as is (instead of actually blending to make Date Paste).

Falafel Salad Plate

This is one of those awesome make-in-bulk-and-freeze kinda recipes. This is something I make big batches of, portion and then store sealed in smaller containers in the freezer for those all too familiar week day evenings when you are stretched for time or don’t feel like preparing something from scratch. There are so many ways to enjoy this Falafel mix. Make into balls or smaller ‘bites’ and serve with a dip or sauce for lunch boxes, social get togethers, or as a healthy filling little snack in between meals. You can create burger size patties and serve with salad or on toasted Clean Multiseed Bread. Perhaps you prefer to serve them between lettuce leaves instead of a burger bun. Or in between sliced and toasted Coconut Buckwheat Flatbreads, (or your choice of locally sourced gluten-free buns).

This recipe is: Gluten-free (GF), Wheat-free (WF), Dairy-free (DF), refined Sugar-free (SF), Plant-based/Vegan (PB), Vegetarian (V)

 Falafel Salad Plate
You will need: food processor or blender NOTE: You can pre-make this mixture a day or few hours before using, for flavours and dough to 'develop' - this is not necessary though of course. If making homemade Hummus, this recipe will take 15 minutes longer to make.

Ingredients
Falafel Mix
Creamy Hummus
Salad (per person portion)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F or 180°C. You can skip this and cook on stove top in a pan.
  2. Falafel Patties: Combine everything except Chickpea Flour and Baking Powder in a food processor.
  3. Falafel Patties: Pulse to create a rough, but well combined mixture - don't pulse/blend for too long or else you will make a puree/paste.
  4. Falafel Patties: Pulse in the Baking Powder and half the Chickpea Flour. Only add enough flour to make dough slightly firm to press into shapes.
  5. Falafel Patties: Line a baking tray (or cooking pan) with non-toxic parchment paper or silicon baking mats.
  6. Falafel Patties: Shape the mixture into your choice of either bites, balls or patties and space them out onto the baking tray (or cooking pan).
  7. Falafel Patties: Bake for 10-15 minutes on one side, turn over and bake for a further 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown. If cooking with a pan, cook on low heat for the same amount of time.
  8. Falafel Patties: Optional - You can brown the patties up in a little heated Coconut Oil in the pan to finish them off.
  9. Creamy Hummus: Blend Tahini and Lemon Juice together until smooth, fluffy and creamy - continually scrape sides using a spatula to combine well.
  10. Creamy Hummus: Add Garlic, Cumin, Salt, Olive Oil. Blend well.
  11. Creamy Hummus: Slowly add Chickpeas to the mix, blending in between.
  12. Creamy Hummus: Only add Water if need be to reach desired consistency.
  13. Combine your choice of Salad Ingredients on a plate, add 2-3 tablespoons of Hummus and add the patties to the Salad plate.
Recipe Notes

*Avoid baking/cooking on aluminium and non-stick surfaces - they will bake/leach toxic substances into your food. Cook with stainless steel and ceramic where possible. Or use bleach-free, non-toxic baking paper and food-grade silicon mats to line baking trays or pots and pans when baking, and cooking on stove top. Use a little Coconut Oil in a stainless steel pan if you prefer not to bake.

*As mentioned, this recipe can be made in bulk, portioned into smaller containers, sealed and stored in the fridge or freezer.

*If you can, choose organic Chickpeas canned in BPA-free cans. I use an organic brand called Eden (available in Australia & USA). Haven't yet found a brand in South Africa - please share in our Fresh Life Community Facebook page if you do find one.

*See Creamy Hummus Dip recipe to see how to activate and prepare Chickpeas from scratch.

Serving suggestions:

* Make Falafel burgers, by putting them between two sides of a toasted Coconut Buckwheat Flatbread, served with Hummus and salad ingredients.

* Made into balls they are great for lunch boxes or served with a dip as a pre-dinner snack

  1. Gently *warm the Chocolate Chips until melted (see recipe notes below for instructions on how to warm Chocolate Chips).
  2. Pulse together the Almonds, Pecan Nuts, Coconut Flakes, Dates, Cacao Powder, Salt.
  3. Combine the mixture with the melted Chocolate Chips and the Cranberries and mix well using a wooden spoon or silicon spatula.
  4. Line a baking tray with non-toxic baking paper/parchment paper and spread the mixture even over the surface. Use a knife to cut the tray into squares. Place in freezer for 5 minutes to allow to set.
Recipe Notes

*Chocolate Chips I buy are simply made from raw organic Cane Sugar, Cacao Butter and Cacao Powder. 

*Can make and use 3x portions of our Chocolate Sundae Sauce as a replacement if you can’t find clean Chocolate Chips.

*To melt Chocolate Chips - I heat some water in a pot, then place a stainless steel bowl in the pot, add a little heated water to the bowl, and then add a glass bowl in which the Chocolate Chips can melt without it getting too hot/burning. We want the Cacao Butter to remain healthy for us, so avoid heating it more than 40 °C / 104 °F.

*Enjoy straight away or allow to set in fridge for 15+ minutes. Store in a sealed container in the fridge or freezer.

*Choose the cleanest ingredients possible:
 

-Choose spray-free/organic fresh produce for fresh ingredients where possible, and if buying conventional, rinse in diluted white vinegar water to remove

  1. Chop Baby Tomatoes and Red Onion into desired size chunks.
  2. Finely chop/mash Garlic, Chillie and Coriander and mix in.
  3. Add Lemon / Lime juice, Salt & Sugar and stir.
  4. Extra Tip: Set aside for 5 - 10 minutes to allow flavour to develop before serving.
Recipe Notes

*Serve as a dip alongside Guacamole with either Organic Corn Chips (organic because most corn is GMO) or Gluten-free/wheat-free Crackers. Also good with veggie dippers like Carrot and Cucumber pieces.

*For a fresh fruity salsa, replace the Tomatoes for Mango to make a Mango Salsa.

*Tomatoes are on the EWG - Environmental Working Group’s ‘Dirty Dozen’ list which makes them highly sprayed with pesticides. Use organic/spray-free Tomatoes or if you really can’t find any, give the Tomatoes a bath in White Vinegar water (¼ cup White Vinegar mixed with 2-3 cups of water) to help remove as much pesticide residue as possible.

Traditional Tangy Mayonnaise

*Contains Egg. Mayonnaise has always been one of my ‘can’t-live-without’ kinda things. So I’ve been on a mission over the years to learn how to make the quickest, easiest and most deliciously tangy Clean Eating Mayonnaise. It’s taken quite a long time but I am happy to say the effort has paid off. I hope you enjoy this mayo recipe as much as I do.

Print Recipe
 Traditional Tangy Mayonnaise
*Contains Egg. You will need: Immersion blender (aka wand/handheld blender). Medium size glass jar (with lid) that is deep enough to hold 1.5 cups of ingredients, with a wide rim to allow the immersion blender head to fit into the jar. NOTE: There are 2 techniques to make quick Mayo. The 1st is using an immersion blender head and a jar (main recipe), the other is using a powered whisk (see recipe notes for 2nd technique instructions).

Instructions
  1. Add the Oil to the glass jar.
  2. Add the Egg to the Oil and allow it to settle to the bottom.
  3. Add the Lemon juice, Mustard & Salt.
  4. Slowly place the immersion blender head in the jar positioning it over the Egg on the bottom. Release any trapped air bubbles. Hold blender head on the bottom and switch blender on (keep holding the blender head at the bottom of the jar). As Mayonnaise starts to form, very slowly pull the blender head towards the surface of the mixture, while still blending, to allow the Mayonnaise to ‘develop’ the whole way through.
  5. Remove blender head and slowly, using a spoon, mix in your preferred amount of Sweetener to give the mayonnaise a lovely tart/tangy flavour.
  6. Seal with a lid and store in the fridge. Use within a few days.
*Storage Tip: Add a little oil to the glass jar you are going to store it in, close the lid and move the jar around so that oil coats the whole surface area of the inside of the jar before adding the mayonnaise to the jar. Oil is a natural preservative and will help keep the mayo from fresh for longer.
Recipe Notes

*Choose eggs from organic/hormone-free (clean), grass fed (no grains = no GMOs = clean), free range/humanely raised (clean) hens

*Make your own Coconut Blossom Syrup: Combine 1 tbsp Coconut Sugar with 1 tsp hot water. Stir until melted.

*’Classic’ technique using a powered whisk:
Note: Use 2 Eggs instead of one for this technique.
All other ingredient measurements are the same as above.

Instructions:
1. Separate Egg yolks from the Egg whites.
2.Put the egg yolks into a large/high sided glass or ceramic bowl, with the Mustard, Lemon Juice, and Salt.
3. Add a little oil, start the power whisk, and slowly pour small amounts of the oil while continually whisking. You’ll need to whisk for a good few minutes to reach desired thick consistency.
4. Gently whisk in (no power this time) your preferred amount of Sweetener to give the mayonnaise a lovely tart/tangy flavour.
