ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย ย Have A Sweet Tooth?
If your like most woman there are just times where you feel like you have to have something sweet, right? Problem is we are not always prepared for that moment and may grab something without thinking to satisfy that sweet tooth.
A good rule of thumb is to STOP and ask yourself, why do I want this? Is this taking me closer to my goals or further away? This works well for me unless I have allowed myself to get too hungry(BIG NO NO) and then mindless eating wins! UGH!
Or maybe its that time of the month and you feel like you could eat everything in sight and just might! This is when we need to be REAL ladies and just find HEALTHY ways to satisfy that sweet tooth. This is a great option for those who are looking for simple recipes to satisfy that sweet craving.
I usually find recipes from my favorite bloggers. I like to experiment with different ingredients until I find what I like! ย The Coconut Mama has a GREAT variety of simple healthy dessert recipes.
Wellness Mama is another one of my favorites and I have included a link for her Homemade Chocolate recipe.ย I also have one our posts with some delicious smoothie recipes that will be sure to satisfy that sweet tooth!
This recipe has been made over many times. I have found this one to be a perfect blend of Protein, fiber, and just enough sweetness!
Protein Energy Balls
3/4 cup oat flour (I use the One Degree organic foods sprouted rolled oats)ground
2 tablespoons of flaxseeds (I use organic)
1/3 cup of raw local honey
1 tablespoon water
1 serving of your favorite protein powder
1/2 cup of natural organic peanut butter or any nut butter
With coffee grinder grind the oats and flaxseeds. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl until blended. It will be thick and clumpy, this is normal. Then cover and put mix in fridge for 30 minutes. Roll into balls and leave in fridge. The protein and fiber will leave you feeling full and satisfy your sweet tooth. If you have a healthy recipe that you find satiates that sweet tooth please share. If you have tried this one and would like to let us know what you think comment below.
To Your Health,
