I always have date “syrup” made and on hand! I use it in my;🌱Oatmeal (as a sweetener)
🌱Smoothies (where I add a lot of veggies – to give an extra sweet taste ☺️- makes it easy to sneak in those veggies, mommas – try this with your kids! They won’t even notice the extra added veggies in the smoothie!)
🌱I make an “ice cream blizzard” (recipe coming soon 🥰)
🌱Use it on my toast with some peanut butter!
🌱In all my baking that requires a sweetener or sugar!
🌱Heck you can even FREEZE little “blobs” of it and it will be just like a CHEWY CARAMEL CANDY!!!
Change your taste buds, EAT REAL FOOD!
