It is the holiday season and cookies, cakes, fudge, ice cream, and more keep entering my house. Then there are the holiday parties where there is food galore...and not always healthy food. Ahh temptations!!
It Happens!!
But what if you could arm yourself with something that tastes like one of these decadent "treats" yet won't throw all your hard work out the window?
Well look no more...here is a tasty new snack that I am using as my alternative to all the Christmas goodies that keep getting put in front of my face. Plus no baking required!!
Gingerbread Balls
Ingredients...
1/4 cup almond flour
3/4 cup dry old-fashioned rolled oats, gluten-free
1 scoop Vanilla Shakeology
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 1/24 cups pitted dates, packed
Directions...
1. Place almond flour, oats, Shakeology, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves in a food processor. Puls until mixture is the consistency of flour.
2. Add half the dates, pulse until well blended.
3. Add remaining dates, pulse until mixture forms a uniform dough.
4. Shape dough into small balls and place in container.
5. Put lid on container and store in refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving.
Easy to make and tastes awesome!!
Oh and it is healthy....
Yields about 18 balls.
Serving size is 1 ball and this is equivalent to 1 yellow container when following the 21 day fix nutrition plan.
Give it a try and see what you think!!
