Macadamia Raw Tart

There is a time in a woman's life when she has all she ever wanted, all she ever craved for and then she decides she wants something completely different. When all she got, all she achieved, all she learnt and all she created is simply not good enough. When all this becomes a basic level of life and knowledge and capabilities and she can no longer perceive it as a great achievement. It all becomes the new baseline from which one has to start developing oneself anew. I needed to challenge myself and to bring a new fresh idea to my life. Or maybe was it just my curiosity to check if it was possible to be done? Having everything ready-made, packed and processed nowadays preparing a raw-food delicacy seemed to be quite an exciting way to go.

Macadamia Raw Tart

160 g macadamia 

10 dates

300 g cashew nuts 

2 tbsp lemon juice

100 ml coconut oil

1 vanilla pod

80 ml honey

50 ml water
400 g fresh strawberries

Start preparing the lower part of tart by blending macadamia and dates in your food processor. Depending on the food processor you may need to blend them for a bit longer, but don't homogenize the mixture. It should contain little pieces of macadamia nuts, not become a paste. Transfer the mixture onto a plate or a baking tin on which you will serve it when ready. Spread the mass across the container of your choice and clean the food processor from the ingredients. Don't forget to snack a bit of the tart before you clean the food processor from it. 

The second step is the filling that should be prepared by blending cashew nuts, water, freshly squeezed lemon juice, honey, coconut oil and vanilla seeds. Blending is done when you obtain a smooth and homogenous mass. After that you can transfer it on top of the tart and spread it equally across it. Put it to the fridge and allow to solidify, 2 hours are minimum. In the meantime you can enjoy the newest White Lies song that I absolutely fell in love with:

White Lies- There Goes Our Love Again

Decorate the tart with fresh strawberries on top and voila! 

Is it good? Is it eatable? Is it healthy? Yes, yes and yes. It's simply divine.
