Cremed Carrot Crisps
What to do with the carrot pulp? Tired of carrot cake? Try this. It’s hard to put your finger on the taste…”interesting”, in a very good way. Food combining friendly without the honey, which is just an optional add-in for you sweet-tooths out there. (I think the clementines make it plenty sweet.) For maximum “yum” effect, try with coconut butter and honey spread on top!
Kale Chips (AKA - Green Monster Chips
Wonderful little curled-up crispy chips that kids and adults will go crazy for! The credit for this recipe goes to Dr. Ritamarie Loscalzo of eLivingHealth.com.
Creamy Cashew Icing
A yummy “cream cheese” icing, from Chad Sarno.
Goes well with the Carrot Cake recipe I have posted here.
Carrot Cake
This cake is lovely, it’s not too sweet and has an actual cakey texture. I adapted it from a recipe by Chad Sarno. It is very versatile – you can add whatever you have on hand – ie. substitute mesquite flour for the carob, use all apple if you don’t have pineapple, play with the spices, etc. You can also dehydrate it longer if you would like a chewier bar, or make it into cookie shapes, if you prefer.
Please note: My kids love this cake, and I have listed it in the Kids category, but babies and some young toddlers (such as those with a family history of nut allergies) should not eat any nut products. Please consult your pediatrician before serving nuts to your child.
