Cashew and Tumeric Energy Balls

Ever since lockdown started mid-March, I’ve invested a lot more time into gardening, and also into exercising. Both keep me sane, and I’ve found that serotonin thing is no shit! And my triceps are developing by the day, I kid you not! So, when I get peckish, I’d rather have something filling that would not erase the results of all these squats, hand-release press-ups and mountain climbers Karl Te Nana has me doing! These Cashew and Tumeric Enery Balls are that very kind of treat: indulgent and satisfying, and also chocka with good stuff, that will keep you going...whether you’re tilling soil before planting flowers or herbs, or doing sit-ups!

Ingredients (makes a dozen):

1/2 cup raw cashews

3/4 cup Medjool dates

2 1/2 tablespoons raw honey, such as heather or Manuka

1 teaspoon ground tumeric

about 2 tablespoons flax seeds

Place cashews in a food processor. Pit Medjool dates, and add to the food processor as well. Blitz until finely chopped.

Add Manuka Honey and ground tumeric to the food processor, and blitz once more, until well-combined.

Take about a heaped teaspoonful of the mixture, and roll into balls between slightly wet hands. Repeat with remaining mixture until you have a dozen balls, then roll each ball into flax seeds, to coat.

Chill at least 20 minutes in the refrigerator to firm up.

Enjoy one or two (or more!) Cashew and Tumeric Enery Balls any time you feel a bit peckish!
