Step-by-step

• Combine all ingredients in a magic bullet or food processor.
• Process until smooth.
• If using tequila, add it and blend again.
• Chill for at least half hour before spooning into tart shells.
• Combine all wet ingredients and blend well.
• Add the stevia, salt and lime zest, stirring until mixed in.
• Add the flax meal and blend until a stiff dough forms.
• Press into six 3" tart shells (I use a silicone one) or you could do them in muffin cups or mini muffin cups.
• Bake in a 350 degree (F) oven for 20 minutes.
• When they come out there will be a lot of oil in the cups - immediately blot it out with a paper towel and let them cool before removing from the molds and filling.
• Garnish with lime zest or a thin slice of lime.
