Title: CADA amounts
Post by: JenniCB on February 19, 2014, 03:43:11 am

Does anyone here make CADA? I know the recipe calls for a handful of each of the 3 loose ingredients, but I'm a bit weight conscious and am wondering about more specific amounts for just a single serve. I read that a handful of almonds is about 20-23. I use about 15. But how many tablespoons of coconut would you say is in a handful (I use the Macro shredded coconut as it doesn't have the 220 preservative). What about dates (yum!) how many in a handful? (Probably not as many as I would like!) I know I can measure myself but it's so subjective so just wondering if anyone else makes it and what amounts they use for a single serve. I'm a recipe girl who likes specifics! Vague amounts throw my ducks outta line!!

I make our CADA once a week for the week - if it is any help, I use 80 g coconut; 120 g dates and 120 g almonds.  You could perhaps divide those quantities by seven and see how you get on.

Thanks Marina. It will probably help others too.
