Healthy Holiday Chocolate Bark
I am a huge fan of chocolate bark! It is one of the easiest sweet treats to make, it keeps in the freezer for when chocolate cravings hit and you can enhance it with a ton of superfoods.
Salted Caramel Maple Apricot Nut Clusters
The title is a mouthful but so are these tasty little clusters! The richness of healthy fats from the nuts, sweetness from apricots and maple syrup, paired with warming spices of allspice and vanilla make these the perfect holiday treat. The clusters are vegan, gluten free and take only 15 minutes to bake.
Green Tea Macadamia Nut Cookies
If you love macadamia nuts and green tea you will love these simple cookies. Gluten-free with a Vegan option, these cookies are a healthy spin off the traditional white chocolate macadamia nut cookies that are usually full of white sugar, white flour and a ton of butter that can be hard on the digestive track. These cookies offer fat burning effects, promote healthy aging and boost energy!! Now that’s a guilt-free cookie 😉
Avocado “Ice Cream”
If you have not yet tried avocado ice cream I strongly suggest you give it a try. Whenever I serve it as a dessert for company, I rarely mention what it is. I sit back and watch everyone try and scrap the bowl with their spoons to capture each little bit. As the questions begin, I enjoy telling people that there is No dairy, No white sugar, and No, I don’t own an ice cream maker.
Healthy Cucumber Lime Agua Fresca
I love the freshness of an Agua Fresca drink, the issue I find with most is the contain a large amount of refined sugar. Experimenting in my kitchen I found that Dates are a lovely replacement for refined sugar. It adds the sweetness to the drink, while also providing fiber, vitamins, and minerals to aid in digestive health.
Greens Powered Guacamole
Avocados are a total superfood, once upon a time in the low-fat movement of the 80’s and 90’s people worried about eating them for their high fat content. However, we have come a long way and have a deeper understanding in that not all fats are created equal. Our brain, nervous system, hormones and skin need healthy fats such as the monounsaturated fats in avocados to properly function.
