1. I made this twice this week -
I made this twice this week - super delicious and one of the few raw sweet potato recipes I've liked! Thanks! I, too, used dates instead of apricots once - still excellent. Tonight I substituted walnuts since I'm out of pine nuts: still pretty tasty, but it does change the texture a little. Make this while sweet potatoes are in season and use the freshest one you can find!!

WOW! Just made it but instead of apricots I used dates. Also -- not enough cardamon so I didn't use it. This recipe is really amazing and I am enjoying it right now.

I tried this from www.dailyrawcafe.com last month and it is very good! Adding those spices would give it an added twist...love the flexibility of it and simple to make too. A nice way to get those raw root vegetables in to your day.
