Wouldnt mind some snack ideas for Friday/Saturday... Sweet and savoury... That are not fruit or carrot sticks... And are tasty

[meow]

Very exciting!!

Couple of recipes for you. Biscuits and muffins and cupcakes are also good to bake and take. Salted nuts and dried fruit are about the only other good thing I can think of to buy.

Banana Bread (from Elana's Pantry)

Paleo Banana Bread

• 3 bananas (about 1 ½ cups) mashed
• 3 eggs
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon honey
• ¼ cup coconut oil or butter
• 2 cups almond flour
• ½ teaspoon sea salt
• 1 teaspoon baking soda/bicarb

1. Place bananas, eggs, vanilla, honey and oil/butter in a food processor
2. Pulse ingredients together
3. Pulse in almond flour, salt and baking soda
4. Scoop batter into a greased 7.5 x 3.5 loaf pan
5. Bake at 350° for 55-65 minutes
6. Remove from oven and allow to cool

Homemade Fudge (from Our Nourishing Roots)

Chocolate Peppermint Coconut Fudge

1/2 cup coconut butter (aka coconut spread/coconut manna)
1/2 cup coconut oil
1/2 cup cocoa powder
1/4 cup thick, raw honey
2 teaspoons peppermint extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup unsweetened, shredded coconut

1. In a food processor, combine coconut butter, coconut oil, cocoa powder, honey, peppermint, and vanilla until very well-combined. Add shredded coconut and pulse until combined.
2. Spread mixture into a square glass pan, smoothing the top evenly. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. Remove the pan, and cut into squares (if it’s too stiff, then let sit 10 minutes at room temperature and try again). Using a small spatula, loosen the individual squares. Store in the refrigerator in a container. To serve, remove from the fridge and let the chill come off for about 20 minutes.

Ummm... little quiches? Salad wraps? Home-made hummus, pita chips and cheese?
Dunno. Not having huge food inspiration. I just really wanted to say...

PUPO???!!!

Clearly you have not been stalking

yes I kept this cycle a secret, then got all excited when they found 14 Eggies

apart from deep fried food and pizza it's pretty hard to think about safe food when travelling!!

Going to bake some kind of muffins today I think.... Don't like bananas though meow.... Sorry! Was wondering whether they could be replaced with anything in your recipe?? Slice sounds delish!

Pumpkin or zucchini breads are also nice. Search for coconut flour muffins and there are good ones around. We like carrot cake muffins.

A zucchini muffin or a cheese muffin would be yummy to cook for snacks. Otherwise, maybe salad and tuna wraps, toasted cheese and tomato rolls, soup is always an option at cafe's and stuff.

Thanks ladies... I'm going for a zucchini and carrot muffin hopefully... Yes.... with cheese...! And maybe raspberry ones for a treat if I can be motivated to cook a second batch

will definitely cook that slice meow... Not sure ill get time today though

will keep the soup option for when out if there's nothing else I could go for soup
