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.

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.
