The September/October 2013 issue of Impact Magazine has a good recipe for High Energy Maca Balls:

 

2 1/2 cups rolled oats regular or quick cooking (wheat free)

1/2 cup raw pumpkin seeds

1/2 cup raisins

2 tsp. cinnamon

3 tbsp. ground maca

2 tbsp. unsweetened cocoa powder

1/2 cup almond butter

1/2 cup honey or maple syrup

1 tsp. vanilla extract

1/4 cup ground flax or shredded unsweetened coconut

 

Combine all dry ingredients except ground flax or coconut.  Spread flaxseed on a plate.  Mix all wet ingredients until combined.  Moisten hands and roll dough into 1-inch balls.  Roll balls into ground flaxseeds or coconut and place in freezer 20 to set, then serve or store in fridge.

 

I used peanut butter instead of the almond butter.  I used ground chia seeds instead of the flax seed.

 

They are pretty tasty!

RW, how did I miss this?!  Sound so yummy and I have everything in my house to make this weekend!


Single with secondary infertility, AMA, DOR, RPL.  TTC started with four failed IUI's.

IVF #1: converted to another IUI after 2 of 10 follies went rogue during stims --> BFN

IVF #2: 6 eggs retrieved, 5 fertilized with ICSI --> 3dt of 4 high grade embryos with AH --> BFN

IVF #3: 6 eggs retrieved, 4 fertilized with ICSI --> vitrified at 2PN (had to put TTC on hold)

IVF #4: 11 eggs retrieved, 9 fertilized with ICSI --> 5dt of 3 blasts  --> th_abfp.gif --> lost HB at 8w4d 8388.gif

IVF #5: 7 eggs retrieved, 6 fertilized with ICSI --> 5dt of 2 blasts --> th_abfp.gif --> missed m/c at 7w3d 8388.gif 

IVF #6: cancelled due to poor response --> IUI --> totally unexpected th_abfp.gif --> chemical 8388.gif

Getting off the IVF train and happily moving on to international adoption

Dossier approved & registered!  Waiting for a referral...  kaffeetrinker_2.gif

Nine months later, still waiting...
