I make these peanut butter chocolate chip energy bites every week. My family and I love them so much! They are great as a snack, an addition to breakfast, or an after-meal treat. By using a mix of almond flour and coconut flour, these protein balls stay low-carb and have a cookie-dough-like consistency.

This recipe is great to make with kids too. My 4-year-old son likes to help me measure the ingredients and then he can roll them into a ball by himself. He also loves eating them, and I love that they are a homemade healthy addition to his diet.

Energy Bite Ingredients:

  • Almond Flour: Naturally low-carb, high in protein, and nutrient-dense. This flour is grain free and high in magnesium, Vitamin E, and prebiotic dietary fiber. It also is finely ground compared to oats which are typically used in energy bites.
  • Coconut Flour: This adds a nice light coconut flavor and is also low in carbs but high in protein.
  • Peanut Butter: Creamy and delicious and high in protein, I eat PB every day. It will help bind all the ingredients together. You could sub almond butter, which I’ve wanted to try too.
  • Hemp Seeds: Also called Hemp Hearts, they have a mild nutty flavor and are rich in omega-3 fatty acids.
  • Pure Maple Syrup: For a natural sweetness and also helps as a binder.
  • Vanilla: Adds a warm flavor that makes it taste like a treat!
  • Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips: This creates a nice crunch and is not too sweet.

The coziest crockpot meal for the busy moms!!! 🥔🥕 The coziest crockpot meal for the busy moms!!! 🥔🥕

SAVE for later!! 🤎 

I had my son’s parent-teacher conference yesterday evening during dinner time, and this was the perfect dinner to have waiting so I didn’t have to cook when I got home! 🙌🏼

Such an easy, set-it-and-forget-it dinner that feeds the whole family -with leftovers too!!

Recipe:

* 1 pot roast (chuck roast)
* 3 potatoes, chopped
* 1 bunch carrots, peeled and chopped
* 1 cup water
* 1 tsp seasoning salt
* 1 tsp garlic powder
* 1 tsp paprika
* 1 tsp black pepper
* 1 tsp onion powder
* 1 packet turkey gravy mix
* 1 cup frozen peas

How to make it:

1. Add the roast, water, and seasonings to your crockpot.
2. Add the carrots and potatoes.
3. Cover and cook on LOW for 8 hours, until the roast is tender.
4. Stir in the frozen peas during the last 5 minutes.

Tip: I would’ve added a chopped onion and left out the onion powder, but I forgot to grab one at the store! 😂 Use whichever you have on hand.

Add salt to taste.

The perfect cozy fall dinner with barely any hands-on time 🍂

A little reminder to myself to soak it all in 🤍 W A little reminder to myself to soak it all in 🤍

We spend so much time trying to make childhood magical for our kids, but we’re living these moments for the first time, too.

One day, they’ll be grown, and I know I’ll look back on these pumpkin patch visits, little walks, and ordinary afternoons with so much love.

They’re only little for so long🥹
