Busy day in the kitchen... recipes included for Raw Bit O honey, raw Almond joys and the chocolate peanut butter shake

Well today I find myself out of raw treats....  so taking action!

I made carrot juice today with raspberries, and apples.

Then I made Chocolate peanut butter shake -  you would make this in a blender of sorts  (I have the ninja)
3 cups water
3 cups spinach greens
handful of raw almonds
2 T Cacao powder
1/2 cup dates
3 med bananas
1/4 cup oats
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
3 cups ice
You will want to blend hte water and greens first then add dates, and almonds, blend.  add remaining ingredients except ice and blend well.  Then add the ice and blend.. then enjoy! 
This is yummy and good for you!

Raw treats made today : Bit O honey bars (quick and easy!)
1/2 cup natural no sugar added peanut butter
1/2 cup raw honey
1 cup almonds
Blend almonds into a power in a blender or food processor.  Combine all 3 ingredients and stir until smooth.  Pour mixture on a long piece of parchment paper and put int eh freezer until hard.  Unwrap and cut into pieces and store in the fridge or freezer.  Delicious!

3 cups unsweetened coconut
1 1/2 cups almond flour (blended raw almonds to a powder)
1 cup pure maple wyrup
1/3 cup softened coconut oil
1 T vanilla power
1/2 t. sea salt
3 T poppy or chia seed
