If you’re lucky enough to have leftover pork belly, use it to make these snack-size fat bombs. They’re meaty and filling and, because they’re laced with mustard and horseradish, they also pack quite a kick!
This supertasty roll-up will let you enjoy a sandwich-like snack without the guilt or worry of eating a high-carb, gluten-filled, high-glycemic bread. Great with sunflower seed butter and fresh, cut-up strawberries or the fruit of your choice, you’ll never have to miss sandwich bread . . . or the peanut butter or jelly for that matter.
Vitamin C allows the body to quickly clear out cortisol, a primary stress hormone that increases sugars in the bloodstream. It just so happens that red peppers are the second highest plant source of vitamin C, containing almost 300 percent of our daily vitamin C intake. Mix all of that into a divine-tasting dip and you’ve got a superb snack!
Light and fluffy, this snack tastes even better than traditional hummus. It has all the wonderful flavors of a Greek snack, but without the difficult-to-digest legumes.
This is a hands-on dish that never disappoints. It would be wise to recruit someone in the family to help you stir the risotto. Feel free to rename this dish “licorice risotto” the finely chopped fennel gives it a similar flavor profile to pique the interest of pickier eaters.
