Soups are very popular in winter, however can be enjoyed all year round. They are a great idea when you are trying to disguise various different vegetables or just simply wanting to use up left over vegetables. This soup is dairy free and does use the addition of cashews to add a little extra protein and creaminess to it. Cashews can be omitted if allergic.

After having cravings for peanut butter the other week I decided to make a quick raw chocolate peanut butter slice. While I do not often eat peanut butter due to peanuts being known for containing cadmium, a heavy metal, I did enjoy making this up for a treat.

Protein balls are becoming an extremely popular snack choice, however it is important to find ones that are low in sugar and made using more natural ingredients. If you are lactose/dairy intolerant make sure you look out for protein balls made on a protein powder that is not whey based.
These protein balls are simple and easy to make and you can swap and change the nuts and seeds used to create different flavours.
