B-Day Weekend and Raw Vegan Cheesecake!

Just a quickie to recap my fab birthday weekend! From massages to lunching with out of town friends, to workouts and yoga and bike rides, to dinner and dancing, coffee and cooking! I am so lucky to have some amazing people in my life!!


This was my b-day gift from Thor....A FOOD PROCESSOR!!! So excited to get to creating .....check out my Vegan Raw Cheesecake below....



My wonderful man!

Friends sharing laughs over food and drinks!

My fav part of the day was sitting at dinner and just seeing this wonderful group of friends enjoying each others company!

Kate and Shane of A Kate Day!

My dancing buddy later that night....


Peter and I have been friends since we were 12!



AND PRESENTING......
Raw, Vegan Chocolate Swirl Cheesecake!

Now I actually followed a recipe exactly for this one so go check out the original recipe at Healthy Hoggin!

This is what it is supposed to look like...

And this is what mine looked like....




BUT....it tasted AMAZING!!!!!!! Like oh my gosh I just died and went to heaven AMAZING! AND its healthy! It even has zucchini in it! I have some ideas for making it a little more visually appealing so I will keep you all updated... :)



UPDATE: My 2nd raw vegan brownies looked much better! I just melted some semi-sweet chocolate chips and swirled them into my cheesecake top...yum!
