Spinach and Kale Appetizer!

It's a healthy makeover of Trader Joe's Spinach and Kale Balls!  They are so savory and flavorful!

Ingredients

10 oz of Kale (2 small plastic containers)

10 oz of Spinach (2 small plastic containers)

3 eggs

1 Cup of Almond Flour (or flour of choice)

2 Tablespoons of Garlic Powder

2 Teaspoons of Sea Salt

1 Yellow Onion (I have used half an onion, but prefer more flavor)

4 Tablespoons Coconut Oil

1/2 Cup of Parmesan Cheese (Optional)- From experience: It is so tasty without adding this or replacing it with anything

Instructions

Preheat Oven to 375

Add Coconut Oil, onion, Kale and Spinach to a pan and wilt the Kale/Spinach.  This usually takes about 5-7 minutes.

Place all ingredients except half of the flour in a food processor or blender and blend until smooth.

Pour mixture into a bowl and mix remaining flour.  You can taste the mixture at this point to make sure the flavor is how you would like it.  Spoon balls of the mixture onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 20 minutes.  Remove from oven and place on a cooling rack.

Tasty Buffalo and Southwest Ranch Sauces!

Need some flavor in your recipes?! Or do you miss a healthy version of spice?  Well lucky for you Tessemae's has got you covered.  They make great sauces (perfect for dressings, dips, and marinades).  I have had the Lemon Garlic (love dipping green beans in it!), Southwest Ranch (yum!), Buffalo, Balsamic, and Ranch.  

A couple can be found at Kroger and a larger selection can be found at Whole Foods.  A complete list of their sauces can be found online by clicking here.  They are made with wonderful ingredients and some may be sweetened but only with honey or dates (how awesome is that)!  The only one that wasn't my favorite from the list I have tried was the Ranch, but the Southwest Ranch is my personal favorite right now.

So if you want a healthy dressing or dip, go check them out at Kroger & Whole Foods (in refrigerated section) or online!

PS- You have to shake them up real good before using them and sometimes let the olive oil warm up from getting somewhat solid in the fridge.
