Sweets and More healthy Sweets

If you know me, you know i have a major sweet tooth! Major sweet tooth, did i mention i have a major sweet tooth?  Well, i'm starting my whole foods journey and i really don't want to give up sweets, and thanks to some cleaver recipes i now won't have to give up cookies or brownies.  i will however switch out the unhealthy items for foods that will help my health and body not hurt them.

We have a tradition at our house to make cookies or sweets on lazy relaxed Sunday afternoons.  Now that i have the superfoods I don't have to feel guilty about my sweet indulging.

Like superfoods CHOCOLATE!  that's right chocolate as a superfood???  I knew chocolate was good for you in moderation but an actual superfood?  YES!  GSGLife has this amazing superfood line that is full of fruits and veggies!  It is oragnic and raw fruits and veggies like: broccoli, kale, spirulina, berries, beets, cauliflower, barley and more!

There is a superfoods red, green and chocolate.  Today i'm going to highlight the chocolate!  It still has all the above veggies and in just 1 tablespoon you will be gettig 3-6servings of your fruits and veggies!  its amazing stuff.  You can message me for more info or you can buy it here!  We use the superfood chocolate for hot cocoa, chocolate milk, and anytime a recipe calls for cocoa I switch it out for superfood chocolate.  The food still tastes just as great, and i'm sneaking in fruits and veggies all while satisfying my sweet tooth.  If you don't believe me, then you really just need to try it.  Superfoods is designed to add to water, but i think its a great recipe tool.

Try this recipe at home with your own SuperFoods Chocolate and let me know what everyone thinks!  complements to the chef will for sure happen and i'm sure peoples jaw's will drop when they realize that there is broccoli and kale in their cookies!!  believe me i've witnessed it first hand.
