Roadtrip - Music festival!

I'm on a roadtrip to the southern part of Sweden. On my way to work actually, but along the way I make a stop to attend the Bråvalla festival. I hope I will hear a lot of great music and eat some nice vegan food at the festival! 

We're staying at a hotel, so it is kind of a fancy way to stay for a festival, but I prefer to not sleep in a tent a the festival. Not my cup of tea. So this morning I almost emptied the bowl with fruit salad at the breakfast and now I'm carbed up and ready for a long day at the festival! 


I try to eat a lot of raw food, but I do eat other foods too. The raw food gives me the best energy though. I like that it seem to get more and more easy to get your hands on vegan food at festivals. 

I'd better go to the festival now.

Raw Bounty

At last I'm at my home for awhile. This spring has been crazy! Travelling all the time for work. And finally I'm home, for a couple of weeks.. then some more work and then... vacation! I'm so exited for the summer.

When I'm away from home I don't get to eat things I like to all the time, but then it gets better when I finally do. For some time I've had cravings for Bounty bars. I've never done Raw Bounty but I thought in my mind that it would be quite easy and tasty. Yesterday, when I went through my groceries I found some grated coconut and decided to give it a try, and it turned out really yummy!

This is my recipe. I have just estimated the amount since I actually didn't measure the ingredients, so maybe you have to add something or have less of something, but it should be quite right.


Raw Bounty
3 dl grated coconut
1 dl agave
a pinch of vanilla powder
3-4 tsp coconut oil
Blend the ingredients. Form into bite size pieces, and put in the freezer for a while.

For the chocolate cover:
4 tsp coconut oil
4 tsp raw cacao powder
4 tsp raw carob powder
1-2 tbsp agave
a pinch of vanilla

Let the coconut oil melt on very low heat. Add the rest. Then dip the freezed coconut bites in the chocolate, it is a bit messy, but what a nice mess it is. Double dip if you want the chocolate cover to be thick.

Then try to let the Raw Bounty sit in the freezer until the chocolate cover has hardened. A couple of pieces accidently jumped into my mouth before they reached the freezer. Accidents can happen...

Enjoy! I will!
