Local Hive Honey and Recipe

 

One thing that my family loves in honey. Since my oldest is a beekeeper we know the importance of taking care of the honeybee population. We also know the benefits of eating raw honey. We use it on almost a daily basis in our home. My family was very excited when they learned I would be receiving some Raw Honey from other states. They wanted to compare it to our honey and see which their favorite would be.

If you are like me you are always looking for a delicious healthy snack throughout the day. I hate that when I get the munchies I end up snacking on not healthy food. It seems like there are not that many healthy and tastes good snacks out there. Or is there?
