Guest guest Posted September 17, 2006 Report Share Posted September 17, 2006 I invented this just this morning when I was trying to think of something to pack in my lunch box that would be fun to eat. Raisins? Almonds? Raisins and almonds? Ah, but I am too lazy to chew a whole almond. I put a cup of raisins and a cup of almonds in my food processor and processed until the almonds were small bits. Then I took the mix out of the food processor by spoonfuls and pressed each spoonful into a ball. I put the balls into a plastic bag and took them to work. The balls got a little harder, so they weren't so sticky, and the combination of the sweet raisins with the protein and fat in the almonds made a very satisfying snack. Great fingerfood, candy sized, and raw and good for you! Margaret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
