What does a sugarfree Thanksgiving look like?

I forgot to take pictures of our pie party later in the day (though I did manage to remember the pie and cheesecake crusts), but here is what dinner looked like:























Madi's Brownies

In a food processor, grind until small, but not smooth:
1 cup of pecans
Add:
1 cup of dates
Grind until all pieces are small, but not smooth. Add:
3 Tablespoons honey
Dash salt
2 teaspoons cacao or cocoa or carob (my favorite is mostly 2/3 carob, 1/3 cocoa)
Optional vanilla (vanilla makes it feel oily, but...is super yummy!)
Pulse to mix. Pat into an 8x8 or equivalent pan. Chill in fridge for 20 minutes. May add additional pecans as desired.
