The holidays may be over technically, but who says we can’t keep on enjoying life?

We proudly present our recipe for dates stuffed with cheese, cranberries and rosemary, all rolled up in prosciutto. Since dates are naturally sweet, we decided to use our no-added-sugar cranberries in this recipe to add a tangy touch that takes the dish to a whole new level. It’s perfect at cocktail time or alongside a cheese plate or veggie platter.
