Favorite Healthy Holiday Treat!

This is one of our family's most favorite Christmas goodies - tasty, filling, and good for you! It does require a food grinder or processor of some kind, but if you can access one, you'll enjoy these wonderful, healthy little treats all through the season.

FRUIT NUT BALLS

1 lb. raisins
1 lb. pitted prunes
1 lb. walnuts
Sesame seeds
Fine chopped coconut
Raw wheat germ

* Combine raisins, prunes and walnuts in a bowl
* Process in a food grinder, food chopper or processor, or just chop fine.
* Form into 1 inch balls.
* Roll in sesame seeds, finely chopped coconut, or wheat germ.
* Refrigerate until ready to eat. These will actually keep several months.

This recipe is from my 31 Favorite Holiday Recipes and is only $6.75 - a great healthy gift idea too! To order this little book, go to http://erleentilton.com/store.htm .

For your best health,
Erleen Tilton
