Fruit Pie... Yummy Yummy (to the tune of the Wiggles "Fruit Salad" song)

Pie for Breakfast? You betcha. Lunch? Sounds good! Dinner? Absolutely... Really there is no bad time for the fruit pie. The recipe from "The Rawtarian" is really for the crust, and the filling and toppings are up to you. Let your imagination run wild :)


Ingredients:
1 Cup Dried Unsweetened Shredded Coconut
1 Cup Raw Walnuts
1/2 Cup Dates
1/4 tsp. Sea Salt (do not omit)

Directions:
Place all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until well processed but still slightly mealy/chunky. Next, press into your pie plate (we do individual pies). Fill with desired filling and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

* Our favorite filling is fresh mango. We blend it in the Cuisinart to make a saucy filling and then top it with strawberries, bananas, kiwi, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries (whatever we have). Last but not least, we ALWAYS sprinkle the top with more coconut... it's a must.

The Crowd's Response: Makes the 6:00 am wake up call a little bit easier. An all around crowd pleaser.
