SUPERPOWER SPIRULINA PIE (RAW AND NON-RAW VERSIONS)
Steps:
- If you are using the raw version will you need to pull out your sturdy knife or cleaver to open a coconut and use the water and meat for the recipe. If you are doing the non-raw version, just get a can of organic coconut milk (full fat). I had a chilled can in the fridge for another recipe, so I used it. To make the crust, mix all the ingredients into a food processor and blend till it incorporates and start to stick (if you have to add a few extra dates - go ahead). *You could forgo the crust and pour the filling into small individual bowls and set in refrigerator for a few hours and have a pudding. This is divine!* Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9 inch pie plate. Combine all the ingredients (except for whatever version you are not using) in a high powered blender (I use a Vitamix) and blend till smooth. Pour this liquid mixture onto the pie crust and freeze overnight, or at least 4-6 hours before serving. Let sit out 10-15 minutes to thaw a bit before cutting.
RAW CHOCOLATE-SPIRULINA PIE
Chocolate and greens? Yes, chocolate and greens! This was my first experience making a "green" dessert and it did not disappoint. The cacao masks the flavor of the greens and the result is a delicious (and healthy) cheesecake-like pie. I know it sounds a bit strange but give it a try--it's really very good.

Steps:
- For the crust, mix almonds and agave in a bowl then press the mixture into the bottom of a 5 inch pie tin.
- In a blender, combine the remaining ingredients and blend until smooth. Be patient; the cashews take a little extra time to fully grind. If you rush, your filling may be lumpy with pieces of cashews.
- Pour mixture into pie crust and freeze.
- Transfer to fridge about 10 minutes before serving. If the pie remains in the fridge for a while, the filling will melt and become runny.
