Raspberry Cashew Cheesecake Bliss Bites

Let’s talk snacks for a minute! When you’re trying to eat healthier, this can be a real stumbling block. Fresh fruit and veggies are a good go to, but sometimes you just want something different and so you might be tempted to reach for some pre-packaged options. While there are some smarter options available, the easy stuff is often full of ingredients we’d rather avoid.

When meal prepping for the week, why not prep a few snacks as well?

These Bliss Bites are full of good ingredients and they’re easy to fix! When you need a snack for that mid-day slump or a long gym session, you can pack a couple of these bad boys! These can be prepped and then stored in the freezer and you can take them out as you need them. This recipe is from @flora_and_vino .
