SALTED ROSEMARY HAYSTACK

With this week being Thanksgiving, all I’m thinking about is FOOD! Since I had a little bit of extra time to experiment in the kitchen I put some ingredients from my herb garden to good use. The kids were wanting something sweet, but of course, I always disguise the “sweet treats” with healthy foods. The funny thing is, they never even know. All the ingredients used provide some sort of dietary benefit. From increased metabolism from the cayenne pepper, anti-oxdiants from the cranberries, anti-inflammatory properties from the rosemary, and cardiovascular benefits from dark chocolate…this dessert is just as good for you as it is, good!

Bring this unique treat to your Thanksgiving dessert table, Christmas party or New Years party! My family, and myself, could not stop eating this delicious, semi-sweet-and-salty, crunchy dessert. It’s like a party in every bite. The dark chocolate adds bittersweet notes, the chow mein noodles add crunch, the mild heat from the cayenne pepper complements the sweet cranberries with rosemary salt to take it over the top. It’s so unique, and so different, your family, friends, or party guests wont be able to get enough.
