Okay folks, here are 3 recipes from a little cookbook called Faves, by Melissa Chappell.  They are some of my, um, Faves.

Lemon Agave Dressing (for salads, ya know)
1/2 c. freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/2 c. olive oil
3-4 T. agave
1/2 t. salt
Optional:  3-4 drops of lavender essential oil

Whisk it up and serve.

Fresh Apple Crisp
2 Granny Smith apples, diced
1/2 c. walnuts, broken into pieces
1 c. rolled oats
1/2 c. golden raisins
1/4 c. coconut oil
4 t. agave or honey
1 t. cinnamon
1/2 t. salt (I add just a dash)

Toss apples in a little lemon juice to keep them from browning.  Mix the rest of the ingredients and put over the top of apples or mix into apples.  Eat right away.

And to add to Bobber's no-bakes:
No Bake No Bakes (makes 15-20 cookies)
4 c. rolled oatmeal
1/2 c. almond butter
1/2 c. coconut oil
1 T. vanilla
6 T. cocoa powder (the good stuff, not baking chocolate)
3/4 -1 c. agave
3/4 t. salt

Mix by hand in a bowl.  Drop by spoonfuls on a wax paper lined cookie sheet.  Put in freezer until hardened.  Eat and enjoy.
