  • This photo shows strength the next photo also shows strength
    3 days ago by brownpapernutrition This photo shows strength, the next photo also shows strength. They're strong for different reasons. It's important you see both. Most days I show up give and 250% but if on the next I'm wrecked I know my strongest card is giving myself permission to step back + not have the awful, heavy feeling that I'm not DOING or BEING enough. I don't keep pushing to keep a facade that I can have so much going on and still keep it all together. It's not possible to do so, yet so many of us feel we need to keep pushing

  • Went on a mission this year to create more delicious
    2 days ago by brownpapernutrition Went on a mission this year to create more delicious curries and whilst it's never going to be mission complete, it's definitely so much further than I had thought it would be - how good is learning right?! Most of my curries have been Indian flavours and dhal which are now becoming super easy because I have a simple method with the spices and then I more or less swap in whatever is in the fridge that week - different veggies, alternate proteins like chickpeas, tofu, lentils, on the weekend I cooked up mung beans and popped them in and
  • Happily eating this brekky every day at the moment super
    2 days ago by brownpapernutrition Happily eating this brekky every day at the moment... super satisfying, wholesome, flavoursome and a great start in high quality nutrition to kick off the day. Here's what I do... soak quinoa flakes with coconut, prunes, sunflower seeds, macadamias, almonds, cinnamon overnight just with boiling water, then pop it together with whatever seasonal fruits are around but this week we had amazeballs strawberries and I used up the rest of the frozen organic raspberries in the freezer. Served up either with coconut or greek yoghurt, take your pick, obviously the coconut is a bit richer so I don't find I

    14 hours ago by brownpapernutrition Super fun way to end the week celebrating  @theiconickids  Birthday at the very iconic Luna Park. Stepped into my own kiddie element and had my hair braided too (have been told this morning that it’s “a bit embarrassing Mum ” ... oh ) Was actually blown away at how beautiful Luna Park still is and how they’ve managed to maintain it to so much of its original form. Lovely family time together, thanks for having us  @theiconickids   @theiconicau

CHOC AVO AND PEANUT CARAMEL TART

in Food

If you’re a fan of ANY of these flavours or ingredients then this tart is going to rock your socks! A beautiful, 100% plant based tart made with nourishing ingredients and the perfect way to get your head around using wholefoods to create your old favourites.

Choc avocado mousse is a secret winner in tarts because it’s creamy but in all the RIGHT WAYS, and the peanut butter caramel – well, need we say more than peanut butter???? We’ve used So Good Nut Milks in this recipe to make things even more delectably scrumptious too. Heaven.

This tart stores best in the freezer and then just before serving can be brought out to thaw for 5-10 minutes, which means also that if you’re making it just for a few of you, then there is a delicious treat waiting for you in the freezer to satisfy a little sweet hit every now and then! It’s full of beautiful ingredients, and tastes healthfully indulgent, but keep in mind that just because that is so, we don’t need to over eat. Eat mindfully always. Enjoy…

CHOC AVO AND PEANUT CARAMEL TART

Serves 12-16

GF : DF : SF : VEGAN

Tart

1/2 cup raw almonds

1/2 cup raw pecans

1/2 cup raw cashews

1/2 cup (approx 8) medjool dates, pitted

2 tablespoons chia seeds

2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Peanut Caramel

1/4 cup medjool dates (approx 3-4)

1/2 cup SO GOOD Almond Coconut or Almond Milk

2 tablespoons natural peanut butter

2 tablespoons coconut oil, melted

Choc Avo Filling

2 cups avocado flesh (approx 2 large avocados)

1/2 cup raw cacao powder

1/4 cup brown rice malt or maple syrup

1/3 cup SO GOOD Almond Coconut / Coconut / Almond Coconut Milk

pinch sea salt

Optional Garnish : 1 banana sliced, dark chocolate pieces, raw cacao powder, cacao nibs

To make the tart…

Combine nuts in a food processor and blitz to a crumb. Add dates, chia and coconut oil and blitz again for about 1 minute. Pour ingredients into a 18-22cm spring form cake tin and press evenly around the base and sides. Cover and place in freezer to set, whilst making the filling.

To make the peanut caramel…

Place all peanut caramel ingredients in a food processor and blitz until it forms a caramel. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides and bottom to ensure it is an even consistency. Pour into the tart base and place back in freezer.

To make the choc avocado filling…

Place avocado, cacao, sweetener of choice, SO GOOD Nut Milk (they all work well) and sea salt in a food processor and blitz until even and mousse like in consistency. Spread over the top of the peanut caramel and place back in freezer to set.

To serve…

Arrange garnish ingredients over the top of the tart if you wish, they’re optional, it will still taste delicious without them! Place in freezer to set for about 30 minutes so it holds better as you slice it. Alternatively you can leave in freezer to set overnight and bring out 10 minutes before serving to thaw slightly. Keep in freezer up to 2 weeks.
