No Bake Carrot Cake Granola Bites

There is no shortage of vegan friendly granola balls aka energy bites on blogosphere.  Granola balls are all common in that they are made with traditional rolled oats, but held together with different nut butters such as peanut, hazelnut, almond and dried fruit such as apricots, cherries, raisins, sultanas and so on.  I decided to base mine on this one, only because I had many of the ingredients to hand, as well as the carrots that I mentioned early in the week that had to be used up.

Carrot and Raisin Cake Muesli

Want to try something different for breakfast, then why not try a bowl of this home-made Carrot and Raisin 'Cake' Muesli to kick-start your day.
This Carrot and Raisin 'Cake' Muesli recipe came about last week when I found myself with an excess of carrots that had to be used or thrown in the compost bin, well being a thrifty home cook - of course they were in a number of homely dishes, such as this Vegan Carrot, Potato and Peas Curry.

Vegan Carrot, Potato and Peas Curry

September the 1st marks the start of Vegan Month of Food also fondly referred to as Vegan MoFo in blogosphere.

This is my first year of participating in Vegan MoFo, and I have decided to kick-start with a relatively simple and thrifty Anglo-Indian curry  that I have veganized by replacing the ghee or butter with vegetable oil.
