Coconut and Oats Cookies

For proper digestion, grains, nuts and seeds need to be pre-soaked, including flour. Coconut flour, however, does not need to be pre-soaked because it is neither a grain or nut. Over the weekend, we soaked some organic rolled oats and decided to incorporate them in our new- simple to make- coconut cookie recipe. We also made some more soy milk which we also added to the recipe. Our new soy milk with vanilla recipe is available…See More

Homemade Soy Milk

A couple nights ago we soaked some soy beans in the fridge to make soy milk. In order to make soy milk, you have to soak the beans*, strain the beans, remove the hulls, add water, blend the beans, filter the mix and heat the liquid with a bit of salt and honey. Removing the hulls was quite the task but worth every second once we tried it as a Green Tea with Ginger Soy Latté! So tasty and sweet in flavor - because of the honey. We'll definitely be trying it again soon! The left over soy pulp is…See More
