Chocolate PB Oatmeal Balls

Chocolate PB Oatmeal Balls

Found these on JustForClicksBlog.com via Pinterest.  Soooooo yummy!! So rich I can't eat more than 1, which is a good thing - because it is possible to overdo a good thing if you're not careful. If your doing 21 Day fix, you can sub one of your yellow containers for 2 of these.

Ingredients:

1 cup old fashioned oats
1/4 cup cocoa
1/4 cup unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/4 cup raw honey

Instructions:

 Stir all dry ingredients together to mix well. Add the wet ingredients and blend well. (Sometimes it's best to use your hands to make sure ingredients are fully incorporated.)

Broccoli & Cauliflower Salad

Broccoli & Cauliflower Salad

I found this recipe from eatathomecooks.com via Pinterest. Its called a "Detox Salad" on that website.  My husband, who for the 28 years I have known him has refused to eat anything that has even come in contact with broccoli or cauliflower, will eat this salad - and likes it - so you know it's good.

1 head cauliflower
2-3 carrots
1 small bunch kale (stems removed)

1/3 cup lemon juice
2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1. Cut the broccoli and cauliflower into florets.
2. Cut the carrots into large chunks.
3.  Roughly chop the kale.
4. In a food processor fitted with a steel blade, process the broccoli, cauliflower, kale and parsley until fine and add them to a large mixing bowl. (This will take more than one batch)
5. Process the carrots and add to the bowl.
6. Stir to combine.
7. Add sunflower seeds, almonds, and dried fruit.
8. Stir to combine.
9. Add lemon juice, vinegar and syrup.
