58K views · 832 reactions | ✨FAVOURITE FOOD RECIPES FROM 2024 ✨ Thought we would share our top 10 recipe reels in celebration of simple vegan baby food for Veganuary this month (in no particular order) that we made in 2024 Up tenth is an absolute favourite and simple fruit & nut bar recipe: ✨ COPYCAT CASHEW COOKIE BARS ✨ We love naturally sweet treats like fruit & nut bars, but they’re always so expensive to buy, but ridiculously simple and quick to make. This is our copycat version of a Larabar / Nakd Cashew Cookie Bar, made with just two ingredients: dates and cashews! Suitable from 18 months 🌱 Makes 18-24 large bars INGREDIENTS: 350g of raw cashews 350g of pitted medjool dates Optional: 1/4 tsp of sea salt HOW TO: 1. Add the raw cashews to a food processor and blend to a fine crumb to remove chunks. 2. Add the dates and then blend until a sticky ball comes together (you may need to stop and scrape over a few minutes). 3. Press the mixture into a lined dish (we used a 10”x10” size but you can make this bigger and have thinner bars) either using a spatula or place a piece of cling film over the top to press flat with your hands (leave on), then place in the fridge to cool/set for 1-2 hours before slicing into whatever sized bars or bites you like. 4. Enjoy! NOTES: Store bars in the fridge for up to 1 weeks or freeze for up to 2 months. If your dough feels too sticky, simply add 50g (1/4 cup) of cashews and blend again. If it is too dry and won’t come together, add 1/2 a tsp of water at a time until it comes together. . . . #cashew #dates #veganrecipes #healthysnacks #homemade #aussiemums #toddlersnacks #blw #blwaustralia #kidssnacks #babymeals #plantbasedbaby #blw #blwrecipes #toddlerfoodideas #whatifeedmykid #babyfood #fussyeaters #veganbIw #veganbabyledweaning #toddler #blissballs #fruitandnut #iron #copycat #vegansnacks #veganuary #healthyfood | Little Vegan Eats

Link in bio or at nevellskin.com Stuffed dates have been my go-to dessert ever since I began my plant-based journey! For those saying all sugar is the same…that is not true! I am living proof. I was addicted to refined sugar for a very long time. I began a sugar detox, eliminating as much refined sugar as I could and BAM! More energy than I ever had before! No more craving unhealthy desserts etc….I can look at a piece of chocolate cake with icing and still choose a banana 🍌 🤣 unless I am the one making the chocolate cake because you know it will be made with a sweet potato frosting…naturally sweetened! Join me this month and be patient with yourself 🙏🏽 | Thejenjones

You’ll need: 9 medjool dates, pitted creamy peanut butter dark chocolate chips flaky salt crushed peanuts 1. Place the pitted dates on top of a parchment lined baking sheet. 2. Flatten with the bottom of a glass (it helps to put parchment paper between the glass and the date so it doesn’t stick). 3.

227K views · 9.4K reactions | BACON WRAPPED DATES: - 16 oz pit in dates - thin cut bacon - 5 oz goat cheese - 1/4 cup honey - 2 tbsp chopped rosemary - pinch of salt Step 1: cut date down the middle to remove pits but don’t cut all the way through. Then stuff with goat these. Step 2: cut your bacon slices in half then wrap your stuffed dates and place cut side down on parchment paper lined baking tray. Step 3: mix your honey, rosemary and salt together and drizzle over your bacon wrapped dates so it’s nicely coated. This will get them nice and caramelized in the oven. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until bacon is crispy all the way around. Drizzle any remaining honey mixture on top. Enjoy warm. #dates #appetizers #thanksgiving #thanksgivingsides #holidayappetizers #sogood #yummy #delicious #easyrecipes #hosting | Sherri Davidson

3.6M views · 60K reactions | You gotta try this! | You gotta try this!! | By Corey & Alicia | Never guess this homemade Nutella was so full of protein and ice. Okay, she said this taste exactly like Nutella but it's healthier for you and it doesn't have palm oil in it. Oh no, we gotta try it. Oh, we got em. I love Nutella. Wow. Okay, she being honest or is she Nutella and the truth? We're about to find out. First thing you need is one cup of roasted chickpeas. You can roast them yourself if you want to but we don't have time for that. We ain't got time for that. We got a kid. Summer. It's your birthday tomorrow. Okay, one cup of roasted chickpeas. Now, you're going to add four dates. Something that I haven't been on in a long time. You were just on a date not to. Took our kid. Does it count when your kid comes home? Some family date. That's just going to hit. That's what we do every day. That's our thing now. Do you know how expensive babysitters are now? Prices are going up. That's crazy. Now you need one cup of hot water. Oh but that's a dry measuring cup. It's all the same size. Now you just gotta be careful when you pour it in though. Okay. Ow. That's why you're supposed to use a liquid measuring. Yeah. It doesn't have to be boiling. Just hot. Just warm. You're going to need half a cup of cacao. Half a cup. That's cacao cacao dude. That's ah. It's a lot of cacao. Did you know that organic cacao's really good for you? Yep. And so is this chickpeas? Yep. Now the only thing left to do is blend it boo. It's a dang spread. It's spreadable. But is it edible? We're going to find out. Why are these strawberries so small? That's first of all that's not fair to say that to the strawberries. Second of all these are the fancy ones from Japan. How much did you spend on these fancy why? They're like raspberries. Don't even ask. They're like hard little raspberries. So she what she did was she just dipped it in. Okay. Nutella spread. Boom. Boom. So tiny. Boom. Look at this. Look at that. Okay. Now. Apparently if you want this to be even sweeter you can add extra dates. Okay. But I'm watching extra weights. You know what I mean? I'm not trying to okay. At home Nutella. One. Two. Two. Three. It worked. Mhm. What? Mhm. I don't even need the strawberry. Mhm. This is healthy right? Mhm. This is healthy? Mhm. This right here? Mhm. Mhm. Wow. We out. You don't need any of the bad additives or preservatives or nothing. You can use it just all natural. Make your own dang spread. Healthy. Hot fiber. Put it on toast. Is that berries? Anything. That's good.

39K views · 771 reactions | With only 5 ingredients these chocolate orange balls are the perfect festive treat. They’re half energy ball, half indulgent chocolate orange truffle and taste absolutely amazing. They are also very quick to make. You can either keep them super healthy and have without the extra chocolate or do as I have here and coat in chocolate and add a bit of extra orange zest to decorate. If you can find a good dark chocolate that has some orange extract or oil in there that really amps up the orange flavour too (@rawhalo do a great one). If you want to see the full recipe with nutritional information then visit https://helenridgeway.com ✅ Save to try Ingredients 1 cup (140g) raw, unsalted cashews 12 large medjool dates, pitted (about 250g) @sainsburys 3 tbsp raw cacao powder @foodthoughtsuk Zest of an orange plus 2-3 tbsp of the juice 1 cup dark chocolate (about 125g) @rawhalo Orange zest to top 1 tsp coconut oil, melted (optional) 1️⃣ Add the cashews, dates, cacao & orange juice/zest to a food processor and blitz until combined. If your dates are a bit dry add a bit more juice and keep blending until soft. 2️⃣ Roll into 16 balls and refrigerate whilst you melt the chocolate. 3️⃣ Melt the chocolate (with the coconut oil, if using) and coat each ball then top with orange zest (I mixed the zest with a little bit of sea salt and a tiny bit of sugar - it makes it look a bit more sparkly and tastes great too). Store in the fridge or freezer. #chocolateorange #energyballs #vegantreats #nobake #ukvegans #festiverecipes | Helen’s Vegan Kitchen
