Product Description Goji berries are red nutrient-dense fruits that have been enjoyed for thousands of years as a nourishing food.

Navitas Naturals Goji Berries have a unique fruity flavor that is similar to dried cherries, raisins and cranberries and they are perfect for snacking straight out of the bag. The little red berries also provide a tasty superfruit boost to granola, oatmeal, tea, cookies, yogurt, cereal, smoothies, trail mix, salad and more. From the Manufacturer View larger.

Recipe: Berry DelightIngredients¾ Cup Navitas Naturals Cashew Whole Nuts ¼ cup Navitas Naturals Coconut Palm Sugar3 Tbsp Navitas Naturals Lucuma Powder2 Tbsp Navitas Naturals Goji Powder1 Tbsp Navitas Naturals Flax Seed Sprouted Powder½ cup reduced fat unsweetened coconut shreds*2 tsp pumpkin pie spice powder⅛ tsp sea salt3 Tbsp canned pumpking puree½ tsp vanilla extract2½ cup all-natural brown rice crisp cereal** (divided)1 cup fruit-juice sweetened dried cranberries⅓ cup chopped Pecans (optional) DirectionsFor best results, add the ingredients in the directed stage (and not all at once), to achieve optimum texture: Place the cashews in a food processor, and grind into a coarse flour. Add the coconut shreds, coconut sugar, lucuma powder, goji powder, flaxseed powder, pumpkin pie spice, and sea salt, and blitz to combine. Add the canned pumpkin and vanilla and blitz once more to form a wet dough. Add 2 cups of the brown rice cereal and process until ground into fine crumbs. Add the remaining 1/2 cup of cereal, cranberries, and chopped pecans (optional), and blitz just for a moment to coarsely chop the last round of ingredients, but retain most of the texture.Lay a piece of wax or parchment paper down on a flat surface, and spill the “dough” out on top. Use your hands to firmly press the mixture into a 1-inch-thick rectangle, compressing as much as possible to get it to “stick.” Lay another piece of wax paper on top, and use a rolling pin to firmly roll the dough into a ½-inch flat layer. Remove the top paper, and re-press together any pieces that may have drifted from the main rectangle. Cut into 16 squares and serve.Will keep for 1 week at room temperature, or 2 weeks refrigerated.*Sold at many natural food stores. If unavailable, use regular unsweetened coconut shreds. **Choose a variety without added sugar, like Barbara's.
