Product Description

Finding the right diet plan for your weight loss goals, health and general well-being is essential. Depending on your specific health and needs, incorporating healthy snacks into your diet plan can help reduce the risk of certain health concerns, ward off disease, and improve your ability to reach weight loss goals. And organic goji berries from Food to Live are a great choice when you’re ready to upgrade your snacking!

Health benefits of organic dried goji berries

Organic dried goji berries are a fantastic option when you are looking for healthy snack food items. The primary benefit of these berries is the high concentration of antioxidants and nutrients: They contain Vitamin A, Vitamin B, Vitamin C, beta carotene, potassium, iron, selenium, calcium, certain trace minerals, zinc, protein, and amino acids — a lot of goodness in a small berry!

These berries have anti-aging properties, help reduce oxidation due to their antioxidants, boost immunity, and provide a sweet treat when you want a dessert.

How to use organic goji berries

Since these goji berries are dried and organic, you do not need to worry about a limited shelf-life or the possibility of eating pesticides or other harmful chemicals. Dried goji berries are easy to eat when you feel a bit hungry or when you want something that is sweet and healthy. Opt for the berries between meals to boost your health and avoid high-calorie snack foods.

The standard American diet does nothing to help improve your health, but adding a few raw, organic and vegan foods to your diet plan helps your body heal and recover from previous diet mistakes.

Enjoy organic goji berries from Food to Live instead of unhealthy snack foods for a change of pace that encourages healing and improved vitality!

Raw Chocolate Goji Berry Energy Bar

Serves: 2

Ingredients

• ¼ cup instant old fashioned oats, ground into a flour
• ¼ cup goji berries – http://bit.ly/1cPg16X
• ¼ cup pecans – http://bit.ly/1QrhIqi
• 1 tablespoon cashews – http://bit.ly/1EQwVg0
• 1 tablespoon lucuma
• 1 tablespoon cacao nibs
• 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
• 1 pitted date – http://bit.ly/1Gn0is1
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon unsweetened almond milk

Topping

• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• ¼ teaspoon cacao powder
• ¼ teaspoon pure maple syrup

Instructions

1. Add ¼ cup of instant old fashioned (or quick) oats in a high speed blender and blend until the oats form a flour. Add the goji berries, pecans, cashews, lucuma, cacao nibs, vanilla extract, date, olive oil and almond milk. Pulse and blend until the mixture is small and sticky.
2. Spoon it out onto a bowl and knead with your hands for about a minute until all the small pieces form one large clump. Transfer it on a flat surface (I used a plate) and form the shape of a long rectangle. Flip it around so the other side can be flattened by the surface.
3. Use a knife and cut off the top and bottom ends, then cut the bar in half. Put it in the freezer for the moment while you prepare the topping.
4. Combine a teaspoon of coconut oil with ¼ teaspoon of cacao powder and maple syrup in a very small bowl and mix it up.
5. Take the bars back from the freezer and drizzle this mixture on top of the bars evenly, then put it back into the freezer for 20 minutes.

Enjoy!
