Yam Pie

Ingredients:

Crust:

1 cup walnuts
2 cups soaked almonds
10-15 dates
2T orange juice

Process all nuts in a food processor or a Champion juicer with no plate on. Add dates and keep homogenizing for a while if using a food processor. If using a Champion , process the dates and mix with grinded nuts by hand. Add orange juice to homogenize even better. Spread into a pie pan (glass preferable) evenly to form a crust and immediately set aside in the freezer.

Yam Filling:

4 yams (medium to small size), peeled
1 avocado
1 cup of dates
3T honey
1t vanilla
1t cinnamon

Cut the yams in pieces small enough to fit in a Champion juicer. Homogenize yams, avocado and dates in your Champion or Green Power juicer with the blank plate on. Add the rest of the ingredients. Fill in the pie pan evenly, and eat the excess. Top with fresh shredded coconut and slices of strawberries or other fruits.
