While it may not be thanksgiving time this recipe is delicious! Especially for my family when we have a thanksgiving type meal for Easter. A healthy and freaking delicious cranberry sauce that blows the canned stuff away. This recipe comes from the Beachbody website.

¼ tsp. ground nutmeg
¼ tsp. ground ginger
1 (12 oz) bag fresh cranberries, rinsed
1 cup chopped raw pecans
½ cup raisins
⅔ cup canned crushed pineapples, packed in juice
2 Tbsp. pure maple syrup

Almonds, yes. Energy bars, definitely. Dessert, HECK YEAH!!!!! This recipe comes from my coworker Sam Woods. A delicious and perfect treat for anyone who loves to workout and stay fit.
Recipe:
Base:
2 cups ground raw almonds
1 cup unsweetened coconut flakes
1 cup flaxseed meal
3 scoops whey protein
½ cup of almond butter
1 cup of melted coconut oil
3 tbs. of coconut sugar (the recipe calls for stevia, but I don’t like the weird aftertaste in my mouth.)
Frosting:
1 full slab of cooking chocolate, 100% cacao
½ cup of coconut oil
½ stick of butter
2 tbs. of cinnamon( more or less according to taste)
Sweeten to taste, more coconut sugar, like ¼ cup maybe…
Mix all base dry ingredients in a bowl first. Then add the melted coconut oil and almond butter. Sometimes I melt the almond butter with the coconut oil so it mixes with the dry ingredients better. Make sure the oil is mixed throughout and press into a 13x9 pan. Should be about ¾ inch thick, maybe more. Not exact science happening in a guy’s kitchen!HA!Refrigerate for about an hour.
While the base is cooling, put the frosting ingredients in a pan and on LOW heat slowlymelt the chocolate. Once it is melted turn off the heat and let it set until the hour is up for the base to cool. Pour the chocolate stuff over the base until all is coated and refrigerate for another hour or so. Then you can serve up and power up!!
Because of the coconut oil, these bars need constant refrigeration. If you set them out, they’ll last a little while, then they get crumbly. Still good, but messy. Let me know what you think.
- Put 2 tsp of olive in a hot pan. Rinse off 1/2 cup quinoa and put in the oil. Stir around for 5-6 minutes just lightly browning the outside. Then add 1 cup water (1 part quinoa to 2 parts water)
-After Quinoa is cooked, let it cook a little more to help get all the water soaked up or evaporated.
-Cool for 10 minutes.
-As the Quinoa is cooling, mix together:
-2 eggs
-1 tsp garlic
-1/2 tsp basil
-1/2 tsp oregano
-1/2 tsp baking powder
- Mix above mixture with cooled quinoa. Add 1/4 cup of shredded cheese. Mix well
-Place parchment paper on a cookie sheet or pizza pan. Spread the mixture across the paper and even it out until it's about 1/4" thick.
-Place in oven for 15-20 minutes (when it looks cooked)
-Take out and add favorite sauce and toppings. Pop back into the oven for 5-10 minutes until the toppings are done the way you like.

This is one of my favorite desserts. But with the the amount of sugar and calories in a normal pecan pie, I sadly pass on it. Well, NO MORE! Time to enjoy this heavenly dessert!
