Key Lime Pie

Last night I made key lime pie and pumpkin milk. I got the recipe for the pie from a raw food group in Michigan. They post many of the recipes online at www.livinghiho.com. The pie is soooo easy! I do everything in my blender—an ostercizer. It’s not the powerful vita mix I’d like to own some day, but with the aid of my coffee grinder, I do O.K. Here’s the pie recipe:


Raw Key Lime Pie

Grind in blender:
a cup of nuts, I used pumpkin seeds this time
½ cup dates

Pour and press into pie plate, or I like to pour into portion sized containers with lids.

Then blend:
3 avos
juice of 3-6 limes, depending on how tart you like it. 5 is good. I’ve also used lemons.
½ cup honey
Pour onto crust. You can top with sliced fruits, like kiwis or strawberries. Or not. Whatever. It’s a sooo simple, one appliance clean-up meal.
