Friday rest day after last night's Assembly League Exertions. Recovering legs and over fatigue had me wide awake at 3.30am, stressing about work, money, domestics blah blah.
So no exercise, I wasn't going into the office, and my mate Ruth, currently cycling in Ecuador (blog: Contours of a Country), had posted about energy bars and why commercial ones are so ghastly. We've hatched a plan to start creating our own - all organic and chemical free. I reckon my raw brownies would fit the bill, so today I made a batch:
All you need is:
250g Walnuts
250g Dates and assorted mixed dried fruit
A little splash of flaxseed oil
A little bit of runny honey or agave nectar
I added a bit of peanut butter, you can replace some walnuts with desiccated coconut if you want.
Process your walnuts:
Then your fruit
Then add the other things
Then press it all into a china baking dish
Then refrigerate a few hours, before chopping into squares.
All I have to do is work out their wrapping and how long they might last.
