This is for you.... Lovely mothers and ladies out there who keep the world turning and who deserve all the love and respect this beautiful world has to offer! Happy Sweet Mother's Day to you .. May your day shower you with the gift of health & love, may you find what you are looking for....

It is for you that I have made this Squash-zania! (sorry I was out of zucchinis, but it turned out superb anyway!)

A few thin slices of Squash, raw & peeled
Tomato slices
2 Tbsp of Macademia- chive cheese (recipe follows)
2 Tbsp of Guacamole (recipe follows)
2 Tbsp of Vegan Basil pesto (recipe follows)
Sprouts
Mung bean sprouts (any sprouts will do- these are what I had today)
Extra avocado for garnish

Place a slice of Squash on your plate, place a few slices of tomatoes on top, then "cheese", then guacamole, then pesto, a few more tomatoes, place another slice of Squash, top it up with "cheese", sprouts, sliced avocado & mung bean sprouts. Just Soooo Rawllygood!

Macademia Chive cheese
2 cups of Macademia nuts
2 Tbsp of fresh Lemon juice
2 Tsbp of Nutritional Yeast
1/2 cup of water, or more, until desired consistency has been reached
handful of fresh chives
Sea Salt, to taste

Blend all ingredients together. Add the water a little bit at a time, until you have reached the consistency you desire. Remember you can always add more, but if you put too much in you might make Sour Cream!!

Put all the ingredients in the food processor or blender. Process or blend until smooth.
