Raw Chocolate Recipes
In last week's newsletter, I shared a quick and simple dessert recipe that requires only three ingredients: raw chocolate nibs, raw pecans, and liquid honey. Enough people wrote in thanking me for this recipe that I thought it would be a good idea to post it here on our blog for visitors who don't receive my weekly health newsletter.
CHOCOLATE-PECAN CRUMBLE
Ingredients:
Small handful raw chocolate nibs
Small handful raw pecans
1-2 teaspoons liquid honey (raw, if available)
Directions:
Crumble raw pecans in your hands before combining with raw chocolate nibs in a small bowl.
Add liquid honey with a teaspoon and stir it continuously until chocolate nibs and pecan pieces come together to a granola-like consistency.
Enjoy this antioxidant-rich, raw chocolate snack one teaspoon at a time!

Here are two additional recipes that call for raw chocolate, sent in by readers of my newsletter:
HOT BANANA & COCOA CEREAL
Ingredients:
Hot 7-grain cereal or oatmeal
One sliced banana
Small handful of chocolate nibs
Directions:
Add sliced banana and chocolate nibs to hot cereal just before serving. There's something about the heat of the cereal and the sweetness of the banana that do wonderful things to the nibs. Delicious!
