Author Notes
I went on a two week raw food cleanse a couple of months ago. This is one of the recipes that I adapted from Yuri Elkaim's book, Eating For Energy when I was on the cleanse. There were a handful of things that I added to my regular eating routine after I went back to eating cooked foods and this was one of them. It is satisfying and so easy to make. —Bold Vegan // Molly Patrick
