My Valentine likes dates and figs greater than he likes chocolate. He’s going to be thrilled with these Date Almond Energy Bites. And I’m pleased I’ll solely want 5 components to whip up a deal with he’ll love. (Note to self: do that recipe with figs.)

So is that this an power chew or is it a truffle? I believe it’s each, though most truffles contain chocolate. From one recipe, you get dessert for one meal and the right post-workout snack for the subsequent day (and the day after that).

Did I point out these power bites are low-sodium too? If you or your Valentine is limiting sodium, these treats will work to your celebration too.

Now, go forth and don’t bake.
