Base:
1 cup pecans
1/4 cup almonds
1/4 cup golden linseeds
1/2 cup macadamia nuts
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or powder
3 tablespoons maple syrup
pinch sea salt
Caramel:
1/2 cup cashew butter
10 medjool dates, pitted
pinch sea salt
2 tablespoons water
Chocolate:
3/4 cup raw cacao powder
2 tablespoons maple syrup
3/4 cup coconut oil, melted
To make the base combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blitz intermittently until well combined. Line a loaf tin with baking paper and press the base mixture into the tin. Use the back of a spatula to press the mixture down evenly. Place in the freezer to set. To make the caramel combine all of the ingredients in a food processor and blitz until well combined. Remove the tin from the freezer and spread the caramel mixture evenly over the base. Use the spatula again to ensure an even spread. Transfer to the freezer to set for 2-3 hours. Remove the tin from the freezer and cut into finger sized bars and then return to the freezer. To make the chocolate coating place the coconut oil in a small saucepan and melt over a very low heat. Remove from the heat and whisk in the cacao powder and maple syrup. Take the bars out of the freezer and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Pick up a bar and dip it into the chocolate mix, turning it so that all sides are covered before placing it back on the tray. Repeat this process with all the bars and then return them to the freezer for a few minutes to allow the chocolate to set. Remove from the freezer and place another coat of chocolate on and return to freezer. The bars will need three coats of chocolate. After the third coat has set remove the bars from the freezer and using a sharp knife trim the excess chocolate off to create an even bar shape. Keep them stored in the freezer until ready to be enjoyed!

1 week ago by brownpapernutrition Finished my final work submission today (a really bloody exciting one too!) before I take time out for birth and beyond yassssssssss bebe girl you is welcome to come into the world anytime... but preferably on the weekend when I’ve ticked a few more boxes of the stuff that needs to happen including putting my heavily swollen feet up somehow. I’ll be honest I feel a bit weird and nervous about taking a step away from my business for the next while, I have driven this engine for a solid 7+ years now and not taken any real extended leave,
2 weeks ago by brownpapernutrition TERIYAKI (NO) MEAT BALL BOWL - of delicious, satisfying happiness! Pickled onion are a staple in our fridge. I use an apple cider vinegar base for it and it's literally ready in 20 minutes for whichever meal I like and then keeps in the fridge a few weeks... if it lasts. Best way to pimp up a meal, adds valuable prebiotic fibres and quercetin to the diet and sans raw onion breath too - win! The (no) meatballs are made with quinoa, beans and mushies and absolutely heaven. Make please! Popped the full recipe on @bodyandsoul_au beautiful humans. J xo

7 days ago by brownpapernutrition As you shop for your groceries this weekend, have a think about ingredients you can batch prep (roast, steam, blanch for veggies) and legumes like chickpeas, lentils, kidney beans that can easily be thrown into meals and keep your vegetable and fibre intake topped up. There is absolutely no denying that laying the foundations of your diet with plants is tremendously beneficial for your health on so many levels. There's also no denying that I am a massive believer in delicious condiments in the fridge and pantry to make meals interesting rather than plain and frankly a little boring so
1 week ago by brownpapernutrition MANGO YOGHURT RICOTTA SLICE... cheesecake thing which I made with a few things in the fridge and inspired by my case of mangoes : ) I made it by whisking together 3/4 cup ricotta, 3/4 cup greek yoghurt, 3 tablespoons honey, 2 free range eggs, 2 teaspoons vanilla, 2 tablespoons chia seeds, 1 medium very sweet aka brown banana and 2 teaspoons lime zest until all creamy and delicious. Then poured it into a lined loaf tin and popped it in the oven at 180C for about an hour - or until a skewer came out clean and the top
