I just came up with my first Raw recipe and it is soooo yummy. I was craving a sweet potato I enjoyed in my past days. You know, the ones that are baked and then covered with nuts, a little honey and some nutmeg.
So, I set out to make my own. I peeled a sweet potato and let it soak for a few hours to remove some of the starchy taste. Then I put it in the food processor, poured some agave on it. Add a few shakes of nutmeg and cinnamon and a handful of pecans. I mixed it up until it looked like baby food.
When I opened the lid to the processor to give it a little taste, I almost couldnt stop eating it. It tasted just like my old favorite. So I just dropped it by the spoonful onto a teflex sheet and have it drying.
I swear, I could have eaten the whole bowl of it without drying it, it was that yummy. Then I wasn't sure if I should make it into a bread, cookies, or what. So cookies won out. We will see how they taste when they come out.
Just had to share this neat experience with everyone!
