This is my first recipe on Hive. I wanted to start off with something sweet, and as it rains here in Norway - although awesome for the flowering beauties - it might be gloomy for some of us, so something sweet might just lighten the heavy rain.
I've seen plenty posts about food. Sometimes I take the time to read through the entire post, look at all the pictures, noticing how my eyes widen, my stomach begins to ache, how I barely blink. And yes - the drooling.
This post will be short tho, as I only have one photo, but more photos will be up in future posts. Which is, as I've figured out, good PR for the recipe :) Especially if the recipe is meatless, sugar free, etc.
Servings: 1. Or 24
Time: about 20 min
100 g chocolate (70% cocoa)
1 tbsp coconut oil
2 handfuls of walnuts
2 handfuls of almonds
2 handfuls of peanuts
2 handfuls of pumpkin seeds
1 handful of buckwheat
2 tbsp chia seeds
2 dl granola
3 tsp cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg
about 20 dates (pitted)
4 tbsp peanut butter
2 dl water
pinch of sea salt
Enjoy.
Nuts and seeds are healthy. They provide you with the healthy fats - the mono- or unsaturated kinds - which have actually been proven to lower cholesterol. Also, nuts and seeds may reduce depression.
Dates are also healthy. They contain a lot of good nutrients, fiber, antioxidants. etc. - of which the latter acts as a martyr in the human body, among other things. I sometimes start my day off with a few dates covered in peanut butter (ambiguous? no?)
Dark chocolate contains a high amount of antioxidants too, as well as serotonin, which regulates stress.
Smile. It's good for you. And you never know who's weight you're gonna lighten
