Food Porn... I Mean Yoga

Both actually.  

This was my breakfast this morning. I was immersed in creating it, photographing it and eating it... all of which I consider to be yoga. Yoga as in union and being present with the moment and what it holds. 

This is a first for me and somewhat out of my comfort zone (the post I've been meaning to write next speaks more about comfort zone) to write a full post about the food I enjoy making and eating. I've been sharing pictures for a while because of my love for photography and food. Now I'm adding the recipe here, so you can join my food porn... ahem yoga. 

Disclaimer: I rarely follow an actual recipe, so bear with the measurements and make it your own creation. That's the fun part :) 

  

Frozen banana

Fall Spice Smoothie

1 1/2 Frozen bananas

1 tsp shredded coconut

1 Tbsp coconut butter

1 Tbsp lucuma powder

water (depends the consistency you want)  

Apple and pecans

4 slices Honeycrisp apple (favourite!)

1 Tbsp chopped pecans

2 pinches cinnamon

2 pinches ground ginger

1 pinch nutmeg

1 pinch ground cloves

Blend all the ingredients together. I use a Magic Bullet, so this makes one cup as pictured. 

Topping: cinnamon... anything you want

making crumble

Raw Crumble

2 handfuls of pecans (I use soaked and dehydrated dates and usually process it all at once except I used some pecans in the smoothie)

1 handful raisins

cinnamon

Process above ingredients in a food processor until crumbly

Whatever kind of fruit you want to put it on top of or mix in.  I used mixed berries. 

I warned you about the measurements ;)

The End.

Both of these recipes are vegan and high raw, healthy and delicious. 

You can find more food porn and assorted photos on my Instagram.

I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. I'd love to hear about your own creations.  

Namaste,

Alissa

 

Looks like the beginning of a new creation ;)
