A delicious and easy no bake slice that your kids will love! With no refined sugars, dairy free, vegan and using spinach to give its vibrant green colour, its a healthy snack that can be eaten straight from the freezer.
Kiwi Lime Slice
I think this is now my favourite slice, the colour is an amazing, delicious green, not a ‘those look really healthy so a toddler won’t touch them green’ and I love the slices of kiwi fruit on top, kiwi fruits are so beautiful inside. The kiwi fruit and lime give this slice a sweet tang with a slightly crunchy base. Best of all, the kids will be eating spinach with this sweet treat!

Base:
- 1 cup cashews
- 1 cup desiccated coconut
- 1 cup Medjool dates, pitted
- 1 tablespoon lime juice

Instructions
THERMOMIX METHOD
Line a square cake tin (aprox 20cm x 20cm) with baking paper or plastic wrap.
Place all base ingredients into mixing bowl and blend 20 sec / speed 8. The mixture should stick together like a dough, if not, add a tablespoon of water and blend a further 10 sec / speed 8. Transfer the mixture to the lined tin and press down evenly to form a base, place in the freezer to set.
Wash and dry the mixing bowl, add all of the top layer ingredients and blend 1 min / speed 8, until smooth and creamy. Remove tin from freezer and pour over icing, lay slices of kiwi fruit across the top and set in the freezer.
Once the icing is firm, cut into squares and store in the fridge or freezer.
NON THERMOMIX METHOD
Line a square cake tin (aprox 20cm x 20cm) with baking paper or plastic wrap.
Place all base ingredients into a food processor and blend until well combined into a dough, add a tablespoon of water if it doesn’t stick together. Transfer the mixture to the lined tin and press down evenly to form a base, place in the freezer to set.
Wash and dry the food processor, add all of the top layer ingredients and blend until smooth and creamy. Remove tin from freezer and pour over icing, lay slices of kiwi fruit across the top and set in the freezer.
Once the icing is firm, cut into squares and store in the fridge or freezer.
Notes
This slice is best served straight from the freezer, can go quite soft once at room temperature.
