Dates are often referred to as nature's candy, and it's no wonder: We'd eat the sweet, chewy, and supremely snack able fruit by the handful any day. We love adding one or two pitted dates to our morning smoothies and have reinvented the cinnamon bun with zero refined sugar (thanks, dates!). But they're just as lovely in savory dishes, complementing everything from chicken liver to beef tenderloin. Who needs a date when you've got dates?
