Pecan Caramel Bars


Cookbooks | Recipes | Videos

Every year as it gets close to the holiday season I think about trying a pecan pie or pecan bars. This year I finally did it. I present to you my latest favorite dessert, Pecan Caramel Bars.

This recipe uses whole food sweeteners: honey in the shortbread crust and Medjool dates in the caramel layer. The caramel layer was inspired by my caramel date sauce. The other thing I'm loving about these bars is they taste great out of the freezer, so it's easy to have a little treat any time.

Free recipe this week. The free recipe this week is salmon coconut cauliflower rice bowl. The miso dressing can be used as a marinade, salad dressing, or really any bowl dressing.

I use it often on top of steamed veggies and mixed greens with chopped green beans and other veggies. Miso is great for your gut microbiome (it's a fermented food). You can find the chickpea fermented version if you're not eating soy (what miso is traditionally made with).

Wishing you good food and a great week ahead.

Warm regards,

Erica

Glazed Miso Salmon Bowl

Cookbooks | Recipes | Videos Glazed Miso Salmon Bowl New member recipe. This week I'm sharing a quick and easy Glazed Miso Salmon Bowl. I'm on a bit of a fermented food run so just a warning that you might see more recipes that have at least one ingredient from this food category.

Types of salt: kosher,...

Moroccan Roasted Carrot Salad

Cookbooks | Recipes | Videos Moroccan Roasted Carrot Salad I have a new Moroccan-inspired recipe for you this week. It started out as roasted carrot sticks and progressed to a full-blown salad, complete with herbs and dried fruit. Quick tip: When you embark on this salad, make extra carrot slices so you can nibble on them while making the salad and still have enough carrots to add to the salad. Fresh Mint Tea I also had a lot of mint in my refrigerator this week. Some went into the salad and...
