LOWER CARB PANCAKES FOR ONE

PEANUT BUTTER PROTEIN BALLS

Steps:

• 1.Mix peanut butter, honey and protein powder.
• 2.Add 4 cups of any of the additional ingredients. My favorite combo for taste and health factor is oatmeal, cranberries, flax seed, and peanuts.
• 3.To make the perfect balls, play around with the honey (if it's too dry) and oatmeal, bran, etc (too moist) until the balls hold their shape and aren't too gooey.
• 4.Now, roll the balls to about 1cm and then refrigerate.

ROASTED SOY NUTS

Steps:

• Soak beans in water 8-12 hours. Be sure to use enough water, as the beans will expand to about 3 cups.
• Rinse the beans and blot lightly with paper towel. They don't need to be dry, just not dripping wet with water.
• Sprinkle olive oil over the beans and toss lightly to coat. I do this right in the colander that I used to drain the beans.
• Sprinkle salt and cajun spice over the beans and continue to toss until coated.
• Spread the beans on a baking sheet in a single layer.
• Bake at 350F, stirring after 15 minutes. Stir beans and return to oven, baking and stirring every 5 minutes until soybeans are golden brown and crunchy. The amount of time to attain crunchy soy nuts will depend on the moisture of the soaked beans. It usually takes mine a total of 25-45 minutes. That's a big range, I know, but every batch is different is all I can say! Watch them carefully toward the end to make sure that they don't burn. Conversely, you definitely don't want to under-roast them either, or they will have a chewy consistency. They should be nicely browned, like in my picture.
• Cool the beans and enjoy!

NEMO (CLOWNFISH) SNACKS

Steps:

• Take two dried apricots and cut the first one in half. Cut the second apricot into thirds. You only need half of the second apricot to complete one fish, but you'll probably be making a few so you won't need to throw it away.
• Heat the white chocolate in the microwave until it was melted.
• Recommend to microwave it for 10 seconds at a time so you don't burn the chocolate.
• Dip the edge of the first apricot piece into the white chocolate. Place the dipped piece on your work surface and push the second apricot piece firmly against it.
• Dip the cut edge of the third piece and press it to the second piece.
• Dip the rounded edge of the fourth piece into the white chocolate and attach it to make the fish's tail.
• Dip a small currant into the white chocolate and stick it onto your apricot fish to create the eye.
• Leave the chocolate to set; you can speed the process up by putting your fish in the fridge.
