Fruit Parfait

I made this pie for my brother's birthday, which was on Wednesday.
The ingredients and directions:
Pie crust:
1 1/2 cup of walnuts
1 cup of dates
1 teaspoon of sea salt
2 tbl spoons of honey

I first put the walnuts in my food processor until chopped very fine. Then I added dates that were diced finely and sea salt and honey and processed until it all stuck together well. Then, I spread the crust out onto my pan w/ removable sides.


Filling:
2 cups of cashews
1/2 cup of fresh squeezed orange juice
1 lime squeezed into mixture
1/2 cup of honey (more or less depending on your taste for sweetness)
1 dash of salt
2 table spoons of coconut butter (can make without also)
1 vanilla bean

I put all of these ingredients in the vitamixer. It is best to put the liquid stuff on the bottom because it helps in the mixing process.

Topping: Arrange blackberries and strawberries on top in an aesthetically pleasing manner.

Eat and enjoy!
