Siren Snacks: Innocent Indulgence!

Watch out protein bars, there's a new snack in town. 


Siren Snacks were developed as a result of the founder being diagnosed with a chronic autoimmune disease. She had to undertake a journey of clean eating and her sister joined her! Together they developed snack bites to satisfy the need for sweet snack bites. They added in a punch of pea protein and voila! Siren Snacks were born. 

They check all the boxes:
  • soy free
  • gluten free
  • grain free
  • nut free
  • non GMO
  • vegan 
  • no artificial sweeteners
  • no artificial flavors 
They are sweetened with a blend of monk fruit, stevia and dates. They currently come in four flavors: Snickerdoodle, Brownie, Cookie Dough, and Lemon Poppyseed. 

I loved the small, snack-able bites. They make the snack so fun to eat and they make it last. The texture was great as well. It was soft and cookie-like, without being oily or sticky. I didn't detect any weird pea protein aftertaste, just sweet goodness. The snickerdoodle tasted just like snickerdoodle to me, the brownie was a nice rich chocolate flavor. They are not overly sweet, but definitely sweet enough for me. I really enjoyed all of these, but my favorite was probably snickerdoodle - I love the cinnamon kick! 

They bites come in a small bag - one bag = one serving! Score! However, you could also eat a few and save the rest for later. They are perfectly poppable!

I definitely recommend these whether you have a plant based lifestyle or not - they are an innocent indulgence for anyone and they make a great ice cream topper! 😉 Check them out here: http://www.sirensnacks.com/

Gut Healthy Gummy Bears! Keto Friendly

Image
Team Sour or Team Sweet? I'm team sour all the way! These gummies are surprisingly easy to make if you have a gummy bear mold (they're very inexpensive on amazon!) and they have the gut-health benefits of prebiotic fiber and gelatin! First they're sour, then they're sweet. Ingredients: 40g VitaFiber IMO syrup  1 tbsp gelatin liquid stevia to taste (I used orange stevia) 1/2 cup water Directions: Heat the mixture on the stove until bubbling.  Use the dropper to fill the gummy bear molds.  Place in fridge until set.  Just before eating, toss the gummy bears in a mixture of citric acid powder, and granulated sweetener of choice (I used a monk fruit/erythritol blend).  Voila! Sour gummies!

Keto Meringues! Sugar Free!

Image
I recently had the idea to make Meringue cookies and my curiosity was piqued at the idea of making sugar free meringue cookies. I wondered if it would work!  3 calories a piece?! I'll take 10!  I took to Google, and to my surprise there were recipes with Splenda, erythritol, stevia and beyond! I decided to try my hand at sugar free meringues with an erythritol based sweetener I just purchased recently. The brand is Swerve and I purchased it from Luckyvitamin.com. It claims to have no aftertaste! Meringues can be a bit tricky to set up due to humidity and given that it was a hot August day in North Carolina, I think they turned out pretty well! The texture was good on most of them but a few of them were still a bit soft in the middle.  Factors working against me: I didn't have enough egg whites I didn't have cream of tartar I was attempting sugar free I didn't have parchment paper Humidity You may be thinking, why even bother? Well, I don...
