We’ve been promising an Elevated version of tiramisu for a few weeks now and we’re proud to say here it is. This was done at the request of one of our members and we think it’s probably our best dessert so far.
It took us a few goes to get there. We tried bananas and avocados and all kinds of combinations to get it right. They either didn’t taste right, weeped too much liquid or had unappealing colours, and so we went back to first principles using classic ingredients with a twist.
After some tweaking, the result is it’s lower in fat and lower in sugars but is also gluten-free thanks to us using buckwheat for the sponge. In fact, we took it to a neighbour who is coeliac who told us she’d always wanted to try tiramisu but has always been unable to… She loved it!
We’ve then powered it up with our favourite coffee brand Exhale. A company that shares our principles of living a healthy lifestyle, the couple behind Exhale have scoured the world for the best, most healthiest coffee beans ever – and then test the coffee over and over again to ensure you’re getting the best health kick possible from it.
It really is an amazing dish… and we really recommend you give it a go. So if you’re not already a member, get signed up now!
Next up is our version of tacos, made in honour of James’s daughters Martha & Gracie who love Taco Tuesday. Here we’ve drawn on some of our Brilliant Bases and other recipes to bring this together. Prime ground beef cooked with our Tomato Fondue and House Rub, set in taco ‘shells’ made from our quick pizza dough and topped with Elevated guacamole and a super-quick salsa (or you could try Marcia’s Saucy Salsa). If you’re one of those people who struggles to eat healthy, home-cooked food in the week that all the family can enjoy, you can add this to your roster in about 15-20 minutes on the day. Just make sure you have some fondue already batched up.
