This just captures CAN CAN Cleanse perfectly! We make jars full of love for you! 

Yes, this was a Valentine's card and here we are a week after Valentine's Day, but never too late to share a little love, in jars. Ok-ok, enough already :)

PINK APPLESAUCE

Recipe:

• 6-7 apples, peeled & chopped into large pieces
• 3 tbs ghee (clarified butter)
• 3 cups water 
• 1 small beet, peeled & chopped into small cubes
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon

Preparation:

In a large pot over medium heat, melt 2 tbs ghee. Add apples and stir. After 5 minutes, add water and bring to a boil. Add beets and sea salt. Cover with lid and reduce heat to low. Simmer until apples are soft. Approximately 10-12 minutes. If water is evaporating, add more 1/2 cup at a time.

Remove from heat. Remove pieces of beets and discard (or eat!). Add remaining 1 tbs of ghee and cinnamon. Stir well.  

Using a hand immersion blender or hi-speed blender, blend until smooth or desired consistency.

Cool and store in glass jars in refrigerator up to 5 days.

*I made this recipe and packaged it in mini CAN CAN jars to take to my son's Valentine's Day party. They were a total hit! Kids love applesauce! And moms: absolutely no refined sugar and only 100% natural, plant-based food coloring :)
