High Powered Food supplement that tastes great and is easy to make.
3 parts pumpkin seeds, powdered
2 parts Siberian ginseng powder
1 part ginkgo or gotu kola powder
1 part ginseng powder
1/2 part Spirulina or Buper Blue Green Algae
1 cup organic sesame butter ( tahini)
I used 1/2 cup organic almond butter and 1/2 cup organic tahini
1/4 cup local organic honey ( the recipe calls for 1/2 cup, but we found it was too sweet for us)
1/2 cup crushed organic almonds
1/4 cup unrefined organic coconut oil
Optional fun things to add: coconut, cocoa powder, raisins, organic chocolate or carob chips, organic granola or organic cranberries.
1. Combine all the powdered herbs and spirulina and mix well
2. In a separate bowl combine the sesame butter, almond butter, coconut oil and honey
3. Add enough of the powdered herbs to thicken, then add the almonds and optional items of your choice.
4. Roll into walnut-sized balls
5. At this point I like to roll them in the cocoa powder and coconut.
Trouble shooting: if the herb dough is not sweet enough add more honey. If it seems to dry add some coconut oil or more nut butter.
There have been a few times that I do not have all the powdered herbs. You can still make the recipe. Example. The last batch I made I did not have the powdered siberian ginseng and I only had a little bit of powdered ginseng. I used ginkgo powder, gotu kola powder and I added maca powder.
