The best fish ever is this one! This goes well with rice and green beans, in my opinion.

It was so good! I would adjust the amount of sugars depending on my mood and what I am serving it with, but this straight up recipe is perfect with sliced apples.
I can’t believe there are pinto beans in this. I drained and rinsed the beans first- a must. Great recipe!
This is genius!! I saved this to my box a while ago and just got around to trying it. I thought the recipe called for garbanzos, so that’s what I had and used when I finally made it yesterday. Didn’t have raw cashews so I reached for our bag of raw sunflower seeds as per the other reviewers suggestion…and then I saw a bag of Coconut Cashews from Trader Joe’s. Of course, I had to use those! The extra sweetness and flavor from the Coconut Cashews allowed me to skip the brown sugar. I lightly pulsed the chocolate chips into the mixture at the very end. I knew if I put them on top, the kids would just pick them off. Lastly, I skipped the additional milk, leaving the consistency more like fudge (easy to roll into a ball for a truffle-like treat). I didn’t see us eating this with fruit as a dip, and, while it would be awesome as a graham cracker dip or spread, in my opinion the concoction itself is healthier than eating the pile of graham crackers we’d end up dipping.
I used sunflower seeds instead of cashews, and eliminated the brown sugar. Just having the chocolate (leftover holiday candy)added plenty of sugar! This was great with apples and strawberries!
