HEALTHY RECIPES OF THE WEEK: GF + VG

About three weeks ago I removed all wheat from my diet. Since doing this I have searched the Internet for yummy and wheat-free dishes! Below are my top two recipes that I have tried and loved! They are both gluten-free and healthy (for the most part)


1       “Bright Mango Goodness”ORIGINAL RECIPE HERE 


I found this recipe on the Coconut Goddess website and boy oh boy is it delicious! I have eaten this at least two times a week since finding it and it has become one of my favourites, especially in the hot weather we have been having.















   
          




    If you want extra coconut flavour you can pour some coconut milk on the bottom of the bowl AND on the top!


s    "French vanilla cacao banana oat-bread bites” ORIGINAL RECIPE HERE

I came across this recipe through Instagram. It is very simple and if made like the original recipe is both vegan and gluten free! I prefer to double the ingredients since it doesn’t make very many. These are perfect to whip up in your spare time and put aside for a healthy snack J

1 mashed Banana
1 tsp cacao
1Tbsp French vanilla protein powder
1/3 cup rolled oats

Roll into balls and bake at 175 Celsius on greased sheet for 10-20min.


** I made this with normal cocoa powder and since I didn’t have any protein powder I threw in a few extra oats and a tsp of vanilla for some flavour. Also, the recipe says to bake for 10min. but I found it took mine about 20min. **




Give these recipes a try and I promise you won’t be disappointed!
