Spreads are a great way to liven up your rolls or sandwiches. However, many of the store-bought pastes have very little nuts and more of sugar and oil. You can make a healthier, tasty alternative at home with quality ingredients and no preservatives.

Ingredients

  • Cashews:3 small cups
  • Dates paste:1 small cup
  • Natural vanilla flavor:2 tsp
  • A pinch of salt
  • Cacao powder:½ cup

Method

  • Blend everything to a smooth paste

Stays good for 5 days or so in the fridge, if your kids don’t finish it first!


Eating Guide:

  • Food group: Nuts
  • Enjoy with roti rollups or as a sandwich spread, with pancakes or even as a cupcake topping.
