Easy Raw Blackberry Jam

Blackberries
Ingredients:
4 cups fresh organic blackberries
12 pitted dates

Directions:
The only step: Place ingredients in a Vita-Mix blender and blend until smooth. (I'm not sure this will work in a regular blender.)

Place in a container in the fridge and enjoy for 7 to 10 days.

This blackberry jam is SOOOOOO good for you as all of the enzymes remain intact because the blackberries haven't been cooked, there is no refined sugar, and the seeds, which are rich in anti-oxidants, are left in the jam. Honestly, it is a little gritty, but to me, so worth it. If you have tons of blackberries and want to make a lot of jam, this can be frozen. Enjoy!

Easy Raw Homemade Applesauce

I have to tell you. This is a DELICIOUS and SUPER EASY recipe your family will love. Proof is in the fact that, again, my family scarfed this down so quickly that there were no leftovers with which to create a lovely photo. Either that, or they're just piglets. Anyway, the visual stimulation is going to have to come from google again. Here it is...

Raw Homemade Applesauce


Ingredients:

-1 Apple per person (In our case we used five apples, of three different varieties: gala, granny smith and the new "grapple" hybrid.)
-1/2 teaspoon Lemon juice per person (to preserve freshness)
-Agave nectar to taste
-Cinnamon to taste

Directions:

Step 1. Peel and core the apples

Step 2: Place all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.

Step 3: Consume.

How much easier and healthy could it be? I hope you love this as much as we did. Thanks for stopping by!
