You guys!!! It’s BONUS BITES month!! So.. I’m posting on a Saturday. And here’s the scoop. You’re gonna get a behind the scenes look of how I actually make healthy bites, or in this case, gluten free no bake protein bites!
The truth is, I have been working on redoing both my Healthy Bites ebooks. Re-shooting the photos and the recipes. The first ebook (not the free one) was created in 2009! That’s SO OLD in blog years. It was time to update and upgrade. These healthy bites include the vegan-friendly option, paleo option, and just plain gluten-free protein bite options. All no baking of course. I re-tested the recipe, tweaked the ingredients, made them more simple, and had several tastes test them again.
Guess what? I’m ALMOST DONE! One more to go. Then all you who purchased the ebook will get an email with the upgrade. Phew!
I’m excited and wanted to share, hence this video tutorial and one of my VERY FAVORITE no bake protein bite recipes from the first ebook.
In my video, you will see I have several options for the gluten-free cereal base. Oats, rice crisps, gluten-free Chex cereal, banana chips, etc. Whatever works just as long as you get a good base “meal/flour.” You can do that by using quick oats (I use love grown foods quick oats) or by grinding up your cereal.
