Our Favorite Charoset

Chock full of fresh fruits, dried fruits and nuts, this healthy Turkish-style charoset gets raves from our Seder guests. I prepare a double recipe and use it to spread on matzah during the whole week of Pesach – good for breakfast and snacks too!

1 seedless orange, peeled and cut into eighths
1 apple, peeled, cored and cut into eighths
1 cup dates, pitted and halved
1 cup raisins
½ cup walnut pieces or halves
½ cup almonds
2 tablespoons orange juice

Put all of the ingredients into the bowl of a food processor. Process until the mixture looks like a rather coarse paste. Add more juice if necessary.

Refrigerate to blend the flavors.

Yields: 3 cups
