Terra Americana

Traditional fruit cake is a symbol of the christmas holidays.  The brick hard, super sweet loaves surely made it through the war unscathed but fail to entice the more health conscious palettes of today.  While this recipe will still appeal to your sweet tooth it adds a delicious melange of carrots, nuts and exchanges dried fruits for the previously preferred candied variety.  This fruit cake's healthy makeover will make a nice addition to a cup of tea on a cold winter's day.
