No-Bake Energy Bites!<\/strong><\/p>\n

(Taste Like Snickers!)<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Moment of honesty… eat too many of these all at once and you may have some… umm… gas. 2 or 3 at a time is just about perfect \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\n

– 1 cup rolled oats<\/p>\n

– 1 cup coconut flakes<\/p>\n

– 1\/2 cup ground (or whole) flax seed<\/p>\n

– 1\/2 cup chai seeds<\/p>\n

– 1\/2 cup organic dark chocolate chips<\/p>\n

– 2\/3 cup all natural peanut butter (crunch or smooth… I use smooth)<\/p>\n

– 1\/4 cup honey<\/p>\n

– 1 tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Directions:<\/strong><\/p>\n

***Make room in the freezer and have a cooking sheet out with wax paper on it ready before you start mixing<\/p>\n

*** have a bowl of water sitting next to you to moisten your hands for rolling DO NOT ADD THIS TO THE MIXTURE<\/p>\n

– add honey and peanut butter LAST!<\/p>\n

– Mix all other ingredients<\/p>\n

– Add peanut butter and honey<\/p>\n

– Mix: I use my bare hands after putting some water on them. If you have a great mixing utensil… go for it.<\/p>\n

– Once thoroughly mixed squish it into bite size balls<\/p>\n

– Place on the cooking sheet and in the freezer overnight then transfer to ziploc<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Rolling Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n

I moisten my hands with water and then squish the mixture into balls. If you try to roll it they fall apart. When the mixture starts sticking to your hands – moisten them with water again. Repeat process till all mixture is used.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/article>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t

Almond Milk! <\/a> <\/h2>\r\n\t\t\t\t\tBy lauren<\/a><\/span> | recipes<\/a><\/span> | \r\n\t\t\t\t\tNo Comments<\/a><\/span>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t

\"\" Recipe of the week: Almond Milk!\u00a0<\/strong>
\nIt’s cheaper and healthier than what you can find in any store and it is EASY.
\nIngredients<\/strong>
\n– 1 cup raw almonds
\n– 1 liter container (preferably glass)
\n– about 7 cups filtered water
\n– cheese cloth (or similar straining material)
\n– 1 Tbs. Agave Nectar
\n– 1\/4 tsp Vanilla extract
\n– A few shakes of cinnamon
\nDirections<\/strong>
\n– Soak almonds in 3 cups filtered water overnight in liter container.
\n– Drain & Rinse well
\n– Rinse container because you will need it again
\n– Blend Almonds, agave nectar, vanilla extract, cinnamon and 3.5 cups water until as smooth as possible (my ninja takes about 5 min)
\n– Strain with Cheese cloth into liter container. Done!<\/p>\n

PS. Pulp from the straining is quite tasty in Shakeology and oatmeal.<\/p>\n

***The beauty of making your own (besides not having to deal with artificial ingredients and crazy amounts of sugar) is you can flavor it any way you like! You can use dates, chocolate, pecans, go plain… anything you can think of.***<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n\t<\/div>\r\n\t\t\r\n<\/article>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t\r\n\t\t\t\t
