PREBIOTIC BEETROOT BLISS BITES

So I have a new game, which I have to admit I am really enjoying!
.
Here are the rules!!
.
Add as many different sources of prebiotic fibre to your food as you possibly can!
.
I made these wee beetroot bliss bites yesterday, I first shared this recipe on my blog a couple of years ago but this new improved version is even better!
.
Guess how many different sources of prebiotics I managed to cram into these??
.
.
So here is my new improved recipe, I hope you love it, I know my gut bacteria will be having a prebiotic party!!
.

BEETROOT BLISS BITES
Ingredients - makes 20 to 24
  • 100g to 125g cooked beetroot, approx 2 medium beets.
  • 150g dates, prunes or figs
  • 100g oats
  • 50g dessicated coconut
  • 2 tbsp flaxseeds
  • 2 tbsp chia seeds
  • 2 tbsp raw cacao
  • 75g pumpkin seeds
  • 75g sunflower seeds
  • 3 tbsp coconut oil
  • 1 tbsp inulin (optional)
Method
  1. Simply blitz all the ingredients in a food processor until they come together.
  2. Take spoonfuls and roll into balls.
  3. Sprinkle with raw cacao
  4. Store in fridge or freezer
.
I used a mixture of dates and prunes and added a tbsp of inulin, which is a sweet white powder, derived from chicory roots. Its a preferred prebiotic, our gut microbes love it and its so easy to add to any recipe. Can cause bloating in sensitive souls so recommended dose is 2tsp per day. I tbsp in 24 bliss bites is well within the recommended dose.
.
Diversity is key when it comes to nourishing our gut bugs and its not that difficult to add different sources of fibre to our recipes!
.
Its all about making better choices and thinking about our wee gut microbe buddies!
.
I managed to add 11 different prebiotics to these!
