I made chicken curry salad with dried cranberries (I was out of dried cherries), celery, radishes,
raisins, almonds, curry on some red leaf lettuce. I stir-fried some snow peas in some toasted sesame oil and used some sauce similar to Japanese steak sauce.
After dinner I decided I was going to try to create some chocolate peanut butter balls. They turned out delicious and quite similar to those chocolate peanut butter treats you buy in the store. smileys/smile.gif
Marsha's chocolate peanut butter balls
In the food processor blend together the oats, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips, cocoa and peanut butter.
After completely blended and broken down, open the container and squirt some agave nectar around (I used vanilla).
The balls will be somewhat dry, so I put unflavored coconut oil on my hands to help moisten them and hold them together; otherwise you can put maybe a teaspoon of oil* in with the blended ingredients before you form them into balls.
1 cup whole oats
3/4 cup ea. chocolate chips and peanut butter chips
1 cup cocoa
1 heaping tablespoon peanut butter
agave nectar
oil*
Now that all ingredients are blended, remove to a plate, Squeeze the mixture into one or 2 large balls in your hands to help them stick together. Then break off small sections and squeeze into small balls.
