Dates and nuts ladoo

Great energy ball recipe, with different nuts, dates, cocoa and banana

The perfect healthy treat!Satisfy that sweet tooth and you can feel good about it.

I was inspired by a meal I saw on Iron Chef. So here it is...

My mom use to make a very tasty and rich fruit cake but it required a lot of preparation and long baking time. The preparation includes cutting and covering the baking tin with multiple layers of paper and then four hours of careful baking to avoid overbaking and burning. Doing some research on the internet I found fruit cake receipes that were prepared with less effort and cooked using a pressure cooker. Although the cake still pressure cooks for one and a half hours, preparation is much less effort. You only require to grease the pan and the pressure cooker ensures a moist cake that’s unlikely to overcook or burn. I used a Instant Pot in this receipe but any standard pressure cooker will also work.

For me it is important that #salad one of those dishes you cannot wait to eat because it is not only nutritious but also delicious. This is my take on a #Capresesalad. #sidedish #myfestiverecipe

This is just a regular plain salad with a slight twist ... Sesame dates .I don't really like onions in this particular salad as I feel it tends to defeat the taste of the dates , buts it's optional.I never had Fetta cheese so I used what I had which was Gouda but it turned out to be a great and tasty substitute 👌

This healthy breakfast can be enjoyed as is, with milk or jogurt. When using rolled oats leave the mixture to stand for at least an hour or preferably overnight before baking. The apple in the receipe can be substituted with soaked dried fruits, dates, berries, grated carrots. Another substitute are savory ingredients including, cooked bacon or ham combined with cheese.

This is my take on an oats cookie... However it is sugar free and safe for diabetics and kids can go crazy and have as many as they wish!It is also very good for breastfeeding momsIt's quick and frankly for any time of dayYou can be free with it, for this recipe I used raisins and dark chocolate.You can use chocolate chip, cranberry, zest, smarties or m&ms just about anything even roasted apple and nuts

Healthy cause I believe beef has iron and we all need cause good for everyone

This is another version of my previous cheesecake bars, and these ones are best eaten right outside the oven. Healthy, delicious, with an ice cream taste, but vegan and gluten free 😃

Spinach and parsley are high in glutamine, an amino acid that helps maintain the health of the intestinal lining. Here, chicken is pounded thin and wrapped around garlicky spinach, red peppers, parsley, currants, and pine nuts. The result is an elegant chicken dish that is satisfying to the eyes and stomach.

I often make muffins for breakfast, but was tired of the usual bacon and cheese muffin and bran muffin. This is a nice alternative. You can even add some bran if you like. Just add a little milk then to keep the consistency fairly soft

This recipe is adapted from Pick n Pay's Freshliving magazine and is one of my favourite desserts. I love the sticky sweet caramel flavour of dates coupled with the bold nutty flavours of the pecan nut. This is a match made in heaven. The photos are taken by me and is featured on my blog too. Enjoy! :)

Really quick and delicious snack, and it is healthy for that sweet-tooths.

This recipe reminds me good old days when we were young ,my mother used to cook for us during winter or rainy days and I used to enjoy hoping you will enjoy too

A very tasty and easy to prepare orange syrup cake that is also gluten free. The ground pecan nuts in the receipe can be replaced with ground almonds for a finer texture.

Who says a burger can’t have greens? Lean ground white meat turkey and spinach make this burger a healthy and hearty choice for you and the family.

My late “Aunt in English”, Mother in SiSwati used to prepare her seasoned flour for me and deliver it to my house every month. It’s really good.We were very close and she passed away recently and she hadn’t made me her seasoned flour.I remember some of the ingredients so I’m attempting to make her fish. I miss her dearly.It’s pretty quick and easy.

This is my version of pesto. I simply love a good pesto, and I could live on pasta for the rest of my life. This is my version where instead of pine nuts I used pistachios. You can even use sunflower seeds or any other cheaper seeds and will still be delicious. I added a bit of spice to it with some dried chili flakes! It’s mouthwatering!#pastapesto #sundriedtomatopesto

Falafel are traditionally made using Chickpeas however, Macadamia nuts can also be used in their place, providing a super tasty falafel with a gently crunch.This is a great vegan / vegetarian and gluten free dish.Note: the suggested sauce is not vegan.

Fruits are healthy and rich in fiber, it is important that atleast once a day one must have a fruit. So with my fruit salad I will help my family to have all the nutrients from the fruits that will help them.

This is a no waste easy dinner, that includes all the goodness from the earlier lunch or the day before! We do not waste food in our house so we always make a plan of how to reuse and enjoy some goodness. Hope you like it!

This is definitely a clean out the fridge type of soup. No more veggies going to waste. This is a very simple and easy recipe. #soupchallenge
