Maple Chipotle Spiced Nuts recipe
I found this recipe in the most recent Davis Food Co-op sales flyer. I halved the recipe, but here it is from the flyer, in full:
And, here is my result:

I got this recipe from Blythe Metz and it can be found on her BlytheRawLive website here: http://www.blytheraw.com/episode-11-the-chocolate-tree Scroll half-way down the page.
I halved the recipe. I used the exact same ingredients, so I didn't want to waste the cacao powder if I am going to have a reaction to it (chocolate.) I haven't tried them yet, they are still in the fridge, setting. Can't wait!

Co-op Goodies
I went to the food co-op in Davis this morning and got some good food. And, I found raw Macadamia nuts!! Very small amounts in little bags, but just the right size for a recipe I want to make when I get home tomorrow. I am soaking them now. They are huge compared to the roasted-to-death nuts my mom used to buy in the jar. Can't wait to make this recipe from BlytheRawLive: http://www.blytheraw.com/episode-11-the-chocolate-tree (scroll half-way down the page.) I am making half the recipe. I do still have an order coming through the mail for raw Macadamia nuts that I bought on eBay a few days ago.
I also found organic red plums. They are so pretty. I haven't seen any like them in the regular grocery in ages.
And, I also got in the mail, the butter oil/fermented cod liver oil capsules I ordered! Going to now add it to my daily regimen for my teeth, following the advice of Weston A. Price, DDS.
