Raw Key Lime Tarts

Let’s face it, eating raw all the time can be hard. But my goodness, does my body feel amazing when I eat raw food. It’s so ding-dang delicious and I have so much more energy when I eat raw! So today I’m bringing you lovely readers of Garnish and Glaze a cute, “I-can’t-believe-this-is-raw,” raw key lime tartlet recipe. It’s unbelievably simple and super quick to make for these upcoming Summer months, which let’s all agree that simple and quick is pretty amazing for anytime of year. Are you convinced yet? 🙂

It’s also so great because I can literally eat two or three of these and not have any guilt. So, that’s pretty amazing, I’d say.

• Take your tart shells and line them with saran wrap and the press the dough into the shells.
