Snacking Simply… Raw, Grain-Free, Paleo-Friendly

My recently favorite snack/desert obsession has been the beautiful and quite amazingly healthy date. There are times when I am in the middle of enjoying a piece of fruit, be it fresh or dried, and my mind begins to spiral into complete awe for the substance dancing across my taste buds. Good fruit, in its purest state, can be more tantalizing than any other food on earth. The fact that it is natural and comes packed with nutrients and fiber, is enough to make me pause, mid-chew to fully savor the experience.

That being said, I don’t know why I haven’t been eating more dates. I’ve read this recipe in a few raw food “cookbooks,” and I think it is ingenious:

Simple Pecan Pie

Ingredients: 1 date, 1 pecan
To make: pit date, if needed. place pecan inside date.
enjoy.

Pure genius.

    How Wonderful! What a great recipe-and just think, it is great and easy to make with young children. They can make their dessert and eat it without waiting hours for preparing, baking, etc. And think of the ease of the clean up! I agree wholeheartedly-genius!
