Energy Bars

I am huge fan of these bars! They are easy to make, portable, they are DELISH, and they are all-natural.  So many protein bars are loaded with junk.  Don't be fooled by protein bars and don't put crap in your body!

p.s. your house will smell so amazingly scrumptious while these are baking, you will want to make them every week! #HelloBettyCrocker The smell of these bars really put me in the holiday spirit... is that weird?!

These energy bars are: Gluten-Free, Soy-Free, Dairy-Free, Organic,  Non-GMO, & DELICIOUS!  

Ingredients: 

2 cups of pecans 

1 1/2 cup of almonds 

4 dates  

dash of cinnamon
dash of salt 

 1/2 cup of honey OR 

coconut nectar for less sugar... I've tried each out and love both! 

Directions: 

 Place nuts in food processor or good blender and pulse.  Be careful not over process.  You don't want an almond butter texture.

Then place all other ingredients in food processor and pulse until a thick texture is made. 

Place batter in an 8x8 cooking pan that is greased with coconut oil.  

Bake on a low temperature around 180 for about an hour.  Leave the oven slightly cracked open.  Once the top starts to brown, take the pan out. 

Cut & Serve (or store for the week!)

Lemon Basil Pesto Dressing

This recipe is Dairy-Free, Soy-Free, & Gluten-Free 

Many salad dressings are filled with trans fat, sugar, preservatives, and artificial flavors.  Unfortunately this can cancel out every intention we had with choosing a leafy green salad. #Bummer

Making your own fresh, organic, salad dressings is not only fun but it is also a way for you to sneak in some beautiful fruits and veggies into your diet.  Ditch those chemicals and preservatives! 

Lemon Basil Pesto Dressing 

Ingredients: 

2-3 Cups of fresh basil leaves 

1-2 fresh squeezed lemon (depending on how much lemon you like)

3 tbs of Coconut Oil 

3 tbs of Minced Garlic 

2/3 cups of Pine Nuts 

Sea Salt 

Black Pepper 

Directions: 

Place all ingredients in a blender until everything is smooth! 

I like to double up this recipe and keep it in a mason jar for the week.  It's absolutely delicious!
