THE SUNDAE MASTERPIECE! This is the best way to end your work day…

Jason came home from school (hospital) and this was sitting at the table. Christian was in his room and came out to greet him and looked at the sundae, he said “Wow can I have some?” Well, Jason got to eat about 4 bites and Christian decided he wanted the entire sundae! He loved it. He kept humming and saying “mmmm”.
So Jason ended up making something else! I had some earlier today. This was a much needed snack, after yoga, walking and cleaning. It was actually my breakfast/brunch.

Raspberry Sauce Ingredients
1/4 cup agave
2 cups raspberries, divided

Blend all ingredients in Vita-mix until smooth.

Whenever I thumb through the pages of these books I always get different feelings about what I am in the mood to make. I usually decide that day and most of the time I have the ingredients on hand. I was fortunate enough to have the ingredients for the following recipes.

Chile Sauce Ingredients
3/4 t chipotle chile powder
2 cups cashews, soaked 1-2 hours
1/4 t salt
1/4 cup nama shoyu
1/4 cup plus 1 T water

Blend ingredients in Vita-mix until smooth.

Sweet Tamarind Fondue Ingredients
1 cup dried tamarind paste (I used tamarind concentrate)
1/2 cup agave
3 T lime juice
1/4 cup coconut water
2 T water
1/2 t salt

All ingredients are blended in the Vita-mix and then if you use tamarind paste, it is strained through a chinois.

Jason loved the chili sauce, he had it with cut up carrots while he was studying.

These lovely sauces go with flax, squash and coconut meat wrappers, carrots, cabbage and mushroom filling and cashew tofu. Tomorrow’s plan is to make the wraps and then hopefully do the complete meal, unless we do something different for dinner. Only tomorrow will tell.

Goodnight Everyone, I am going to study some more. My A&P test is in one week, next Tuesday. Then Thursday school is closed. It will be a much needed break. One week away from the test is about the time I really start to get focused. I will be studying and only sticking around the library and the house. Of course I also have to do The Quest, but that will be needed!
