Hello and welcome back. So let’s talk energy balls because I’ve been making loads over the past year. There are a number of reasons why I have become slightly obsessed. They are easy and uncomplicated to make, it usually takes less than 15 minutes and it means I have a constant flow of healthy treats to snack on during the day and evening. I am a big snacker so this is huge for me. After trying a mixture of recipes here are my favourite which make for great after-school treats too.
Packing Georgie’s lunch box is, apparently, a thrilling task. I have so much fun with it (most times) and try to include exciting yet healthy options. Apart from the school’s ‘no nut policy’, which means peanut butter is out of the question (boohoo) I think the possibilities are endless. I set time aside in the evening to get as much as I can ready for the morning and always keep in mind that I am feeding a three-year old, so small portions and bite-sized pieces are key. I photographed some of the lunches and snacks I put together during Georgie’s first and second week. Let’s see how long this lasts! (ha!)
