Green Chocolate Love Bites

You've heard of Dark Chocolate, Milk chocolate and White Chocolate, but have you ever heard of Green Chocolate?? I predict that it will be coming soon to a health food store near you!

Ingredients:

Makes 7-8 Pieces

1/2 Cup of Artisana Coconut butter ( the best stuff out there)
3 Tbs Vita-mineral Green Powder (or any green powder that you love)
Pink Himalayan Crystal Salt to taste
Agave to taste

Directions:

Heat the Coconut Butter in a pan until it melts. Add the other ingredients and mix it up real good. Poor contents into silicon ice cube trays that are shaped like hearts or stars (you can buy these on amazon, just type heart shaped ice cube trays into the finder section). Let sit until it becomes solid or put it in the freezer for faster results. The green powder will naturally sink to the bottom to create two layers of color.

Artisana Macadamia Butter Blueberry Smoothie

Woah Momma!!! I made these on a hot day and they were super amazing. My friend commented that they taste like "Mother's Milk." I debated naming the smoothie that. Maybe I still will.

The key ingredient here is the Artisana Macademia Butter. I have made this bevy before with Macademia nuts and it is just not nearly as smooth as with the butter. Make this for breakfast or a mid day pick me up! Well, I mean, I guess you can really drink this any time!

Ingredients:

1.5 cups Rice Milk
1 Banana
.5 Cups Frozen Blueberries
1 Snack squeeze packet of Artisana Macademia Butter

Directions:

Blend it up and Drink it Down.

1 cup Organic Raisins
1 dash of Cinnamon
1 dash of Pink Himalyan Crystal Salt.
.5 cup Shredded Coconut

Directions:

Mix the Artisana Pecan Butter, raisins, cinnamon and the salt together in a bowl. Wash your hands and roll up little truffle size balls of the concoction with your hand. Roll the balls in Shredded coconut (placed on a dish) and reap the benefits of your cooking excellence.
