I am Delicious (Sweet Coconut Maca Malt)

Some days I just want something to satisfy my sweet tooth in the best kind of way.  This is one of those smoothies.  Frothy, malted maca meets dates and coconut milk.  Making this at home with whole ingredients is one of the easiest and most satisfying things.  Almost as satisfying as making a frothy maca mustache with this delightful (delicious) smoothie from our book, I am Grateful.

Chocolate Almond Butter Maca Balls

This is one of my favorite snacks – for any time of day. It's inspired by Cafe Gratitude's “I Am Super” (dark chocolate nuggets), but my version is even more simple. These are a great energy boost and quite tasty!

I offer ratios instead of measurements so you can make whatever amount you want! I usually use ½ cup to equal one part, which makes about 20 balls.
