Cuisine: Eating Clean, Dairy with Isagenix shake powder; Parve with non- dairy/Parve shake powder
Serves: Serve 12-16
Ingredients
2 tablespoons virgin coconut oil/butter
zest of one orange, grated
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1½ cups natural peanut butter, almond butter or a combination of both (no sugar or partially hydrogenated fats added, only pure nuts and salt, or just nuts)
½ cup agave syrup or pure maple syrup or honey
2-3 scoops Isagenix IsaLean vanilla shake
½ cup sliced or slivered almonds, raw or toasted
¼ cup organic raisins
⅓ cup organic dried fruit; i.e., cherries, cranberries, etc.
3 tablespoons organic flax seeds, ground
2½ cups organic rolled oats
½ cup sunflower seeds
pinch sea salt, if needed
Instructions
Line a square pan with parchment paper. (I use the natural unbleached variety.) Combine first five ingredients in a saucepan over low heat, mixing until fully incorporated and smooth. Remove from heat.
Add the remaining ingredients and mix well. Spread the mixture evenly into the lined square pan , cover and keep in fridge until ready to eat. Eat once fully cooled and set. Cut into squares as needed. Freeze cut-up pieces in a ziplock back and defrost as needed.
