Sweet Freedom recipe 3: Chocolate & Nut Protein Balls
The third recipe for my Sweet Freedom/Choc Shot recipe challenge. There are so many variations for making ‘protein balls’ but I wanted to create some which were satisfying, sweet and filling. The Linseed mix can be substituted for any seed mix but this worked particularly well, while the chia seeds are amazing at firming the mixture up […]
Sweet Freedom recipe 2: Vanilla Tofu Cheesecakes
The second recipe for my Sweet Freedom/Choc Shot recipe challenge. Most cheesecakes are out of bounds with their wheat bases, plus are packed full of calories and fat. These little pots are ideal if you’re wanting something creamy and indulgent with a ‘biscuit’ oaty base to balance out the textures. Silken tofu is an amazing alternative to […]
