Note from Tania

I simply love fruit and nuts of any variety. Some of my favorites are included in this recipe. They are a great healthy treat. Have fun with this one, feel free to improvise. These little balls of bliss are delicious served with a bowl of apple slices or bunches of green grapes.

If you have a sweet tooth, you could add in a few shards of dark chocolate and roll in with the dates, figs and walnuts!

Enjoy, TK x
