Strawberry Rhubarb Raw Cheesecake

This Strawberry Rhubarb Raw Cheesecake is a clean and healthy dessert that satisfies your sweet tooth and is packed with nutritional ingredients.

Guys, I did it. I think I’ve created a dessert in which there is literally no “bad” ingredients. When you take a bite of this you think you’re eating cheesecake but in reality, it’s like you’re eating a wholesome, protein-rich granola bar.

The power of REAL food is incredible. You just have to get creative with the ways you use it. 

Would you have ever guessed that the “cheesecake filling” is actually soaked cashews? Yep. And the crust is made with dates and walnuts. 

Ah I love food. 

This is a great early summer dessert to pack for your kids in their lunch, bring in to your office (you’re welcome coworkers), or even to just have on hand to satisfy your after-dinner sweet tooth. 

I’m envisioning many different flavors of this raw cheesecake throughout the summer…
