🍋🍮 No-Bake Strawberry Lemon Cheesecake | Gluten Free Raw Vegan

Deliciously fresh, raw style vegan cheesecake. This one is cashew based - but you can totally sub macadamia nuts instead though it will slightly change the flavour. We kept it simple (we did experiment with adding coconut oil, cocao butter, and agar agar to the filling to help it set up firmer, but in the end we preferred the taste & texture of the original/simpler recipe) and it still sets well & holds its shape in the fridge. We love the extra pop of freshness that lemon ze

Making the "BEST KETO ALMOND VEGAN BREAD" from Lowcarbrecipeideas

I have been on the hunt for some new starch-free bread recipes (I think starting to be sensitive to tapioca starch, which is in almost ALL gluten-free bread recipes to lighten them and make them more fluffy and like "regular" gluten bread). We've tried the 3 ingredient flax bread, which was so simple and yummy: https://youtu.be/c8zBnny85dQ?si=splC1V5eBDEYDL_4 We've tried the life changing/seed bread, also yummy, but in a chewy dense way: https://youtu.be/o3TgTjvLWYE?si=jyP-_I
