Yesterday was such a beautiful day. I was picking black currant with my 3 girls,
Hildur (28) Julia (14) Athena (8 - step daughter).
After wards we went home and made some really delicious JAM
I will give you the recipe here - so easy and healthy yummmmmmmmmy

Black currant JAM
2 pint black currant
3/4 cups agave nectar
1 Tbsp cinnamon
1 Tbsp shredded lime peel
put everything in a food processor and blend for about 30 -60 sec.
this jam keeps for 10-14 days in the fridge, and for many weeks in the freezer

And then to the CHEESE
I was soooooooo addicted to cheese when I changed my diet - OMG - I thought my live was over and out - and I would be bored until my days end.......
Today I know that the live is just beginning when you change your diet - soooooooooooooo many good things to learn we are so blessed guys :)

I will show you my favorite cheese - so simple and just brilliant. You can use it as a "cheese" sauce on pasta, lasagna, salad or........ You can dehydrate it and then you get a beautiful "parmesan look a like" thing. So many ways to make magic with this simple recipe.

"parmesan look a like"
1 cup cashews, soaked for 2-4 hours
1 cup pine nuts, soaked for 2-4 hours
2 cups rejuvelac (or 1 1/2 cup water + 1/2 cup lime/lemon juice)
3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
1/2 Tsp himalaya salt
put everything in a blender and blend until smooth. 2 cups of mixture on a teflax shead on a dehydrator tray and even it out with a spatula. dehydrate for 6 hrs on each side or until it is dry.


love you all

coconut ice cream

I love when I have something beautiful to share. And now I have:)
Last night it was "girls evening".
I was with my daughters and the female cat = 5 girls.
We were recycling old cloths - making new blouse out of old one + a pair of socks.... and other rather "glimmering" things:) When you make " girls evening" you HAVE to have something really tempting.

This is just one of the "gir… Continue

crowberries you can see it with photos on: www.heavenlyraw.blogspot.com

Crowberries are one of the Icelandic "fruits".
Well I know it´s a berry but in a land where you have trouble growing apples...... then those little things are like "diamonds" for us "vikings"..... They grow wild all around the country. Those small black berries are filled with and-oxidants, iron, vitamin C - just packed with nutrients. When I was young my parents always went berry picking in august. Always. And today I go with my girls. We make some yummie picnic out of it as well - food always… Continue

I love your recipes. My brother and his family live in Norway and when you talk of crowberries etc this is the only other place I have come across them. Have you come across a dragon fruit before - this is what I am using at the moment for my picture?
