Day Seventeen

Today I consumed the following:

morning: green berry smoothie

afternoon: spring salad with "meat"; pepitas; cherries; blueberries

evening: spoonful of mashed cauliflower; burg with avacado/tomato dressing and tomato slices on onion bread; cherries; cashews; watermelon; 1/4 cacaonut ball.

result: 2 poops

Yay! I actually made a delish dessert. After having Meredith's yummy dessert yesterday I had a craving for something just as good tonight. I read online some truffle like recipes and then created my own with the ingredients I had.



Cacaonut Balls:
1/2 cup of coconut butter (I used Artisana's sold at Whole Foods)
1/4 cup raw honey
1 tsp of vanilla extract
sea salt
cacao powder

Mix the coconut butter with the honey and vanilla extract and add salt to your liking. Form into little balls and roll in the cacao powder. Place in the freezer for about 10 minutes. I would suggest placing it on wax paper because when I took them out they were stuck to the plate. Then eat! Put the remainder in the fridge otherwise it will melt. Warning: these are very rich! but yummmmmmy. Recipe makes about 8 balls.
