Weekend Date Inspiration
as in date caramel, obvs
Adi brought me a bag of huge, juicy dates last week. They’re tender and taste just like caramel. Such a treat. Between making big batches of date caramel and eating them plain, I have so many ideas for how I want to use them. These are the best recipes to make when you want a sweet snack that nourishes you and your family.
If you’re headed to a Super Bowl party tomorrow, here are a few ideas for easy snacks to bring. And these salads will be a hit if you’re hosting!
I’ve been stocking up on our Valentine’s Day assortment to give to everyone. It’s so good and no-nut.
The other day I discovered that these boots are waterproof. (Stepping in a puddle is a great time to learn that.)
If you somehow still don’t have a winter coat, I highly recommend this puffer.
If you’re going to make perfectly creamy date caramel, you need a good blender.
I first introduced these in my January meal plan. They’re the perfect treat after a meal and you can store them in the freezer.
Like a candy bar but so much better.
I always have this in my fridge. It’s great on toast with cottage cheese, on sweet potatoes, in baked goods, and I’ve heard in coffee, too. Make it. (There are more recipes with it linked in the post.)
The perfect protein-packed cake with a touch of sweetness.
Wrap in parchment paper, store in the freezer, and pack for lunch.
Make these with your kids this weekend!
The date caramel is delicious and so simple make! I love it swirled in yogurt for a nightly dessert! Thank you for the recipe, Melissa!
