Cupcakes make a great little snack for times when you have visitors or for a quick dessert every now and again. These cupcakes are sweetened with medjool dates which actually contain minerals including; copper, potassium, zinc, magnesium and iron and are also fibre rich and can help balance blood sugar levels.

This recipe has got to be one of the favourite from my E-book and I often make it for group dinners as it is so simple.

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.
