Energy bites, energy balls, power balls, you choose! I found this recipe on Pinterest by withfoodandlove and tweaked a couple of things.
These were originally named Raw carrot cake, which is quite suiting I think. To me they have a distinct season of fall taste. Enjoy this nibble with some coffee or on the go. I'm secretly wondering if they can be used as a spread..... you'll let me know, right?
Try jalapeņos, roasted red peppers, fresh herbs, mushrooms, tomatoes, or bacon and ham as a variation on this basic recipe.
This is a recipe from The medicine Woman Roots and not my own work.
There are unlimited variations, just use your imagination and remember to add to your intake calculator:
For an herbed bread: add small chunks of sharp chedder cheese, a TB of crushed thyme, a Tsp of crushed sage, a tsp of oregano or beebalm, small handful of fresh chopped Rosemary, fresh ground black pepper to taste and maybe some coarse salt on top. You can even add some green onion, broccoli or nettles for extra panache if you like.
Sweet Bread: add cinnamon, honey, cardamom, vanilla and even some fresh fruit like sliced strawberries.
Pancakes: just make the batter thin enough to spread on a hot cast iron pan or griddle. Unsweetened applesauce is nice in the pancakes instead of water.
The recipe will work for a regular sized pie tin or small loaf pan. Double the recipe for a more normal sized bread loaf pan (remember to double the nutritional intake!)
This is a moist and delicious carrot cake with a hint of orange. Very much like a 'real cake' but grain free. This is low refinded carbs. It is kind of labour intensive but worth it if you need a cake fix!
Very adaptable, any veg could be used in place of the carrots. Pumpkin, zucchini etc., since the vegetables are pureed first.
This quick-cooking soup is incredibly versatile. Use whatever vegetables are in season, look best at the market, or are your favorites. Add a side of protein such as grilled shrimp or sliced turkey.
A quick and easy stir-fry is a perfect weekday supper. In this recipe you can substitute an equal amount of sliced chicken breast for the shrimp.
