Fruity Muffins Recipe

I found the original recipe here: Blueberry Mango Muffins
I changed nothing from the original recipe, other than using raw milk in place of the coconut milk.
They turned out great!
 I used frozen blueberries and mango. I thawed them out in the fridge overnight. I believe you can use just about any fruit that you favor.
 I made 11 small muffins (9 are pictured,) although his original recipe said it would make 9. I think I just didn't fill the cups up enough to begin with.
My afternoon snack.

Sweet Potato Chips Recipe

I found this recipe here: Homemade Sweet Potato Dog Treat Recipe

I used 2 small organic garnet yams and sliced them into 'coins'.
This filled 3½ trays in my dehydrator. I set it for 135ºF and dried them overnight. Turned out nice and crunchy! You could sprinkle them with various herbs before drying, but they are tasty by themselves. You could also use them with your favorite dip. I like them, as do my dog and bunny!
The dried chips filled a 1-pint jar.

Cacao Date Bars Recipe

I found this original recipe here: Chocolate-Date Squares.
I changed very little. I used Deglet Noor dates as I was out of Medjools. They are a slightly smaller date, so I used 12. I also added a couple of pine nuts to top each bar.
My mini cuisinart was too small for all of the ingredients. Since I really didn't want to use the big one, I just used my blender to mix all of the ingredients.
I used a loaf pan to freeze it.
 Pine nuts are not pictured.
 Pine nuts were added before freezing.
 Wrapped in parchment paper and ready to add to my travel lunches.
This recipe made 6 bars. Each bar was about 1.5x4x.5 inches.
