We lived next door to a chef for a few years and one of the tricks of the trade that he taught me was that lemon brightens the flavor of everything! A little lemon zest and 1 tablespoon of juice in these protein balls, and it’s a whole new game.<\/p>\n

Keeping healthy treats on hand is a game changer for me.\u00a0 Knowing that these are high in fiber, protein and healthy fats, make it a no brainer to fire these up! When I choose foods these days, I am truly looking to get the most bang for my buck (nutrition-wise). I look for high fiber foods (this builds the microbiota in my gut, causing a more diverse eco-system). I look for anti-inflammatory foods (insert turmeric). These don’t taste like a curry dish with turmeric in it, so not to worry, but, you do get the wonderful benefits of this superfood, like fighting cancer, inflammation, and depression. I look for foods to keep me fuller, longer. The healthy fat from the almonds\/almond butter will help to do this.<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy.<\/p>\n
