No fuss, so easy to make with just a few ingredients they come together in no time. These truly do melt in your mouth, light, moist and flavorful, not overly sweet so they’re the perfect light ending to any meal. The lemon brightens the balls and gives it an irresistible scent, freshness and making them highly addictive! These bite-sized treats are the perfect cure for your lemon craving.

Yum Yum Bars
They are sweet and chewy, high in energy, high in fiber, a good source of protein, delicious tasting, and it literally takes less than 30 minutes (plus 30 mins freezing time) to make this healthy, gluten free, refined sugar free, dairy free, vegan snack. Enjoy in moderation of course … these are kind of “energy bars” so they do packed with calories and natural sugars!…
Coconut Mounds Cookies
These four-bite treats are sure to be a hit with all the coconut lovers out there. It combines two of my favorite things: chocolate and coconut (you know my love for chocolate)
Say with me CHOCOLATE!
The filling of these soft chocolate cookies is a simple mixture of shredded coconut, coconut nectar, heart-healthy coconut oil and a bit of coconut milk to hold it together.

From artificial flavors and colors to words you’d need an advanced degree in chemistry to pronounce (are you sure that’s food?), there are thousands of ingredients making their way into your food that are simply not, strictly speaking, food. And in time, too much of these can lead to serious health problems. Science has now shown that sugar in your food, in all its myriad of forms, is taking a devastating toll on the health of the population and is leading to wide spread obesity, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke, liver disease and a host of other closely related illnesses….
