Raw Cashew and Avo Zuchetti

This recipe is inspired by the wonderful Lee from Supercharged Food. Read my review here. It’s just perfect for when you just want a light refreshing meal ready in minutes. If you’re cooking for one, this keeps in the fridge but is best eaten the next day. Gluten free, nutrient dense and delicious.
