Raw Chocolate Mousse Tartlets

I played a little bit with the ingredients for the fillling. Since the crust is dehydrated it takes time to plan ahead.

1 tbsp. Organic Coconut Oil
Pinch of Sea Salt

Filling:
1 1/2 large Avocados (230 g)

50 g frozen AcaiPureé
1 Tbsp. Acai Powder
1 Tbsp. Tocotrienols
1 Tbsp. Vivagave
30 g Organic Coconut Oil
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
2 drops mint extract
75 g Agave Syrup

1 - 2 Bananas, sliced

Method:

• Saok the almonds for the crust overnight and blend with the crust ingredients for 1 min/speed 5
• Press in muffin pan or tartlet molds and dehydrate ( 12-14 hours) until dry
• Fill the crust with banana slices and press them in with a fork
• Blend the ingredients for the filling 1 min/speed 5
• Fill cup cakes with a pastry bag and chill at least 1 hour before serving

Red Beet & Carrot Salad

500 g root vegetables ( carrots & beets)

1 small apple
20g apple cider vinegar
Juice of 1/2 Lemon
20 g olive oil (or half flax seed oil)
celtic sea salt & pepper
fresh dill weed or parsley

Method:

• Place all ingredients in TM bowl and chop 5-7 sec/speed 5

Optional addition: add 1 clove garlic, 1 tsp. mustard or ginger
