R loves this recipe, and I love that he's getting a slew of healthful ingredients each times he enjoys them. Many mornings, these serve as an "appetizer" to his breakfast. They're also a great after-school snack or anytime snack.
Packed with ground nuts, flax, dried fruit and coconut, they offer a powerful nutrition punch!
No-Bake Carrot Cake Bites
(adapted from a Market District recipe)
2 large carrots, roughly chopped
1 cup sliced almonds
1/4 cup walnuts
4 oz pitted dates (about 1/2 cup), roughly chopped
1/4 cup ground flax seed (flax meal)
1/2 cup unsweetened shredded coconut (plus extra for rolling, if desired)
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 tablespoon agave syrup or maple syrup
Place the carrots, almonds, walnuts and dates into a food processor and process until the ingredients resemble fine gravel or very coarse sand or pebbles.
Add the flax, coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg and agave/maple syrup and process until fully incorporated.
Pour into a bowl.
Shape into generous tablespoon balls.
If desired, pour a few tablespoons of extra shredded coconut into a shallow dish and roll each ball in the coconut before serving.
Makes about 2 1/2 dozen bites.
Life is sweet,

GORGEOUS!!!! I love these things
About how long will these stay fresh if refrigerated?
I keep the ground up mixture in a sealable container. Then I make the little balls as I eat them. The mixture keeps for up to a week.
My husband and I have been having lots of problems living together, he never gives me attention or makes me happy because he has fallen in love with another woman outside our marriage. I tried my best to make sure that my husband leaves this woman but the more I talk to him about it the more he makes me feel sad and unhappy, My marriage started leading to divorce because he no longer gives me attention. I wanted to forget him but i love him and didn't want to lose him. We have been married for years and he is all I could call a true best friend and best in all, the man that handles my problems perfectly, the man that makes sacrifices for ,my happiness. I wanted him back in my life badly and I was so confused. My Friends told me to buy books about relationships, so I went online for relationship books while I came across a spell caster called Dr Emu. I read testimonies and reviews about him so I contacted him immediately, explained my problems to him. Same day , he casted a spell for me and assured me for 2 days that my husband will return to me and to my greatest surprise the third day my husband came knocking on my door and begged for forgiveness. I am so happy that my love is back again and not only that, we are about to get married again, he proposed. I wouldn't stop talking about him. Contact him today if you need his help via email: emutemple@gmail.com and you will see that your problem will be solved without any delay. Website: https://emutemple.wordpress.com/
