RECIPE – RAW COCONUT ROOIBOS TURMERIC CHAI SLICE
All day every day I dream of raw desserts.
So you can understand how excited I was when health-food queen, Nadia Felsch, created a Raw Coconut Chai Slice infused with Mayde Tea Rooibos Turmeric Chai.
Nadia Felsch is the creator of the Wholefood Society line of Healthy Baking Mixes, 2 successful online programs; the Path to Wholefoods and Wholefood Society Online, and is also a recipe developer, writer and nutritionist-to-be. Her relatable approach to real food is about nourishment, enjoyment and ultimately, eating freedom. Always about keeping food and nutrition – Simple. Delicious. Nutritious. I was and still am, so stoked to collaborate with such an authentic soul.
Back to raw dessert – I’ve included the recipe to Nadia’s creation below but if you would like the full break down including nutritional information on the ingredients used, you can see the full post here. Let’s get cracking…
