Lemon Energy Bites by For the Love of Lemons

We asked Ayesha from @Forloveoflemons to give our lovely customers a sneak peek at one of her delicious recipes ahead of Mindful Snacking Workshop on Saturday the 5th of October.

Are you hungry between meals? Are you struggling with what to snack on? Do you eat too much sugar? Let me help you with lots of ideas for sugar-free healthy snack ideas that will keep you energised for your day ahead.

Try my go-to energising snack - Lemon Energy Bites.

Energy bites are a delicious snack to make for yourself or your kids. With lots of healthy fats and vitamin C, these are perfect to keep you going.

Lemons are full of vitamins, minerals, phytonutrients and antioxidants. They are especially good sources of vitamin C and folate

I like to have some as a mid-afternoon snack. Make them on a Sunday night, so you have them ready through the week.
