These are the ramblings of a self-described wheat, grain and gluten-free “gourmet girl” that loves to cook and eat good food. I love creating and sharing recipes and photographing “beautiful food”. In July 2012, I eliminated wheat, grains and added sugar from my diet and rediscovered real, whole fresh foods again and effortlessly lost 65+ pounds. Join me in my wheat, grain and gluten-free journey. See how easy it is to enjoy grain free gourmet, one meal at a time! Welcome to my blog. Enjoy!

Energy Bites - No Bake, Low Carb, & Gluten Free
Today I'm doing another Honeyville guest post where I'm sharing a recipe for my no bake Energy Bites! These little bites are packed with all the good stuff, like blanched almond flour, almond butter, antioxidant blend dried fruits (no sugar added), dark chocolate chips, pistachios, walnuts, unsweetened flaked coconut. It's like a little party in every bite. I've been enjoying these recently as a quick little "ball of energy" to enjoy before going on our long brisk "weekend" walks. We've been getting up early in the morning on weekends to get our walks in before it gets hot and one of these little bites keeps me going without hunger pains for the entire 1-1/2 hour walk. I have one along with a big glass of water and I'm good to go until we get back home for breakfast. You can change these up and make them with different add-ins to use what you have on hand or swap and add your own personal favorite fruit, nuts, etc. Try them...they are awesome! You can find the recipe here: No-Bake Energy Bites. Enjoy!

Hi GGC,
Delicious, low carb, high nutrition energy bites with no junk ingredients. What could be better than that? Maybe if they were no-bake ... wait a minute ... they ARE no-bake! Perfect! :-)
Hi CyberSis,
I actually had one of the bites along with my yogurt for breakfast this morning (that had a few chia seeds and fresh blueberries in it. I wasn't hungry all day long and we had a late dinner this evening, too. I know it will be nice to have something to make when it gets really hot that we don't have to heat up the kitchen to make. :-)
