Make It:

1. In large bowl, mix apples, carrots, sugar, and vanilla. Add beaten eggs and milk.

Clean It:

Be sure to avoid Teflon pans when baking, as harmful chemicals are known to leach into your food. Visit Green Cooking Pots for chemical-free cast iron pots and pans!

Green It:

Choose a less processed sugar, such as raw or turbinado, instead of granulated “white” sugar. Less processing saves valuable resources.

Make It Fun:

Add in any other fruits or nuts that your child loves, such as raisins or almonds.

I have to say, this recipe really disappoints me. It looks fantastic, but apples and carrots are some of the few local fresh foods you can get all year in colder climates, and here they don't allow you to use them because you have to use this Happy Family product. They could have at least included the weight value, so you could substitute. I won't make the recipe as a result, because I'm not going to go out and buy prepackaged what I can get directly from my local farmer.
