Fruit Balls
In a food processor:
Chop all together in the processor; don't let it go too long to maintain the texture of chunks. If the fruit is a bit dry, you may need to sprinkle in a little warm water to get a ball that holds together. If you feel a bit naughty, add a little dark chocolate.
Balls can be enhanced by rolling in shredded coconut.
Use any combination of nuts and dried fruit you like, and with the addition of some good dark chocolate, turn them into Chocolate Vegan Balls.
Covered tightly and refrigerated, they will store in fridge for a long time, but this is seldom tested!
