Easy, refreshing and satisfying

Try these delicious and nutritious energy bars. They are not too sweet!

These are gluten free, lower carb, low sugar, high protein and delicious!

An alternitive to MILK pudding. I don't usually like Sugar Free and Fat Free items...but this is REALLY good. I didn't use the Light Soy Milk...I REALLY love the flavor of this.
It makes 4 1/2 cup servings...and I use the ziploc containers to make and store them in. PERFECT! :)

This ice-cream is readily made in a few minutes and refreshes perfectly during the hot summer. See more at my blog http://danieladanaphotographer.blogspot.sk

Pudding

Pistachio Basil Spinach Pesto

Mixture of salty and sweet for just a taste of goodness—I often need just a taste to satisfy my sweet tooth.

I have recently become completely obsessed with energy balls. They are great pre and post workout snacks. These are vegan, gluten free, refined sugar free and completely delicious!

Delicious

Richly satisfying, this luscious-looking soup made with red bell peppers gets a touch of heat from Thai chile. For an extra-nutty flavor, puree an additional 1/4 cup shelled pistachios with 1/4 cup water and serve the soup with a dollop of this pistachio puree on top.

The subtle, melt-in-your-mouth flavor of these cookies gets even better as it lingers. The flavors are festive, the dough smells like heaven, and the cookies themselves are always a hit!

Another variation

Tasty whole wheat pistachio pancakes!
Make sure the stevia is cooking stevia and you use 2 tbsp of that. For the eggs, separate the yolks from the whites.
1/2 cup of batter for 2 pancakes.

Pistachio Almond Yogurt is delicious for breakfast or dessert and almost fat free! If you need a change of flavoured yogurt, this is for you!

1. Preheat the oven to 180oC/350F/Gas 4
2. Grease and line a 20cm/8 inch loose bottom cake tin
3. Mix the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and pistachios thoroughly
4. Mix the vegetable oil, lemon juice, and water together and mix into the dry ingredients. Stir in the lemon and orange zest.
5. Pour into the cake tin and bake for 35-40 minutes until golden and risen
6. Puncture the cake with a skewer and drizzle the maple syrup over. Leave the cake in the tin for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a cooling rack to finish cooling - be careful when handling the cake as it is delicate.
7. When cool, make the icing by mixing the lemon juice to the icing sugar, gradually, until you have a smooth, spreadable and slightly runny icing (you might not need all the lemon juice). Use a spatula or palette knife to spread over the top of the cake. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top and decorate with orange segments if desired.
