The Rawtarian’s Thoughts

This is my first fifth raw Christmas. One of the most important Christmas food traditions in my household is eggnog, so I knew I had to find a suit-able SAD eggnog substitute.

There are no eggs in this recipe, but the coconut oil is the secret ingre-dient that adds the richness that we all know and love re: holiday egg-nog. (If you don’t have coconut oil, don’t use any other oils as substi-tutes. Simply omit it.)

Think of this as an instant raw eggnog recipe. It’s very rich and festive. Enjoy!

What is a “raw ve-gan?” A raw vegan is someone who eats only raw fruits, vegetables, nuts and seeds–none of which are ever heated above 105F (40.6 Celsi-us). That’s it. Raw vegan recipes include cookies, brownies, cakes, crackers, macaroni and cheese, cheesecake, and more. All made from fruit, vegetables, seeds, and nuts. No bread products, no dairy products, just raw, natural ingredients! There is a whole movement of “raw ve-gans” (or “raw fooders”) who invent and share creative raw food reci-pes. Raw vegans prepare recipes using blenders and food processors instead of ovens and microwaves!
