Agave Recipes Using Agave Nectar Syrup

This was a huge hit at my house tonight! I used mostly foods from Trader Joe's (because they're so delicious) but you can use whatever you can find of course. 1 can Trader Joe's refrigerated buttermilk biscuits 1/2 cup Trader Joe's organic ketchup 1 pound ground beef 1/4 C. Trader Joe's agave syrup 1 tablespoon balsmic vinegar 1 teaspoon chili powder 1 C. shredded cheddar cheese 1 tablespoon minced onion 1 tablespoon garlic powder 1/4 C. Trader Joe's marinara sauce Spray a 12 cup muffin tin, preheat oven to 375 degrees. Tear dough to make 12 biscuits (about 3/4 of a biscuit) and shape into 5 inch circles. Press each into the bottom and up sides of muffin cups; set aside. In a skillet, brown the ground beef and drain. In a small bowl mix remaining ingredients and add to meat, mix well. Divide meat mixture among the twelve biscuit lined cups and then top with cheese. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown.

Chocolate Coconut Agave Cake Recipe I made this layer cake yesterday for my diabetic husband's birthday. It was such a hit, I will definitely be making this again. The coconut oil really gives it a unique flavor plus it's good for you! It came out prettier than the picture but this was the best shot I could get since we already ate half of it. This cake is not low fat by any means, it's super moist, yet fluffy. You would never guess it's sugar free. If you've never tried agave syrup as a sugar substitute I urge you to give it a try. It doesn't spike your blood glucose like sugar and it's better than artificial sweeteners in my opinion. It does have carbs/calories but my husband can eat desserts made with agave without his blood sugar going high or low. 1 C. boiling water 1 C. unsweetened cocoa powder 1/2 C. butter 1/2 C.
