Roasted Nutty Candied Sweet Potatoes

Roasted Nutty Candied Sweet Potatoes

This recipe mixes mostly healthy and a wee bit not so healthy (basically butter and sugar) ingredients but its all real food.  I love when a side dish is dessert-like..because I am usually full really fast and its like I had dessert,even though its really healthy.

32 oz diced fresh  sweet potatoes
1 cup coursely chopped walntus or pecans

1/4 c melted butter
1/4 c melted coconut oil (or any vegetable oil will do)

2/3 c granulated sugar (don't judge..this is my recipe)
Quantities of spices are going to vary by taste. This is my liking..
2 T cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp all  spice
2 pinches cardamom(smell cardamom before you use it,some people love it and some hate it, I LOVE it, and its healthy)


Preheat oven to 375°.  Melt and mix coconut oil and butter in a bowl. Add sugar and spices and incorporate.  Add nuts, stir well...add sweet potatoes, stir well.

Pour onto a baking pan.  Bake for 25-30 minutes or until sweet potatoes are tender.

Ehrmagerd!!

Note, you can use any spices you like...any oil, and any nuts.  You can also use brown sugar, maple syrup, molasses, etc...go to town.  Make it your own.  That is what love of cooking is all about.  Add the love and ingredients your family likes and no one else's cooking will compare.

Parsley Water for Kidney Cleansing

I got this from a friend who is a naturalist...and I love parsley.  I put it on my salads, sandwiches, and in my vitamix shakes by the handfuls...I wish restaurants still put it on the sides of meals.  I love tossing it in my water with my lemon/lime/or orange slice.

This is the original wording from my friend. 

CLEAN YOUR KIDNEY IN LESS THAN P20 (I CARE FOR ALL OF US)

Years pass by and our kidneys are filtering the blood by removing salt, poison and any unwanted entering our body. With time, the salt accumulates and this needs to undergo cleaning treatments and how are we going to overcome this?
It is very easy, first take a bunch of parsley (MALLI Leaves)and wash it clean
Then cut it in small pieces and put it in a pot and pour clean water and boil it for ten minutes and let it cool down and then filter it and pour in a clean bottle and keep it inside refrigerator to cool.
Drink one glass daily and you will notice all salt and other accumulated poison coming out of your kidney by urination also you will be able to notice the difference which you never felt before.
Parsley is known as best cleaning treatment for kidneys and it is natural!
