Pregnancy super nutrients: Zinc, Vitamin E, Iron, Magnesium, Manganese, Vitamin B1, Selenium, Protein, Folate, Healthy fats, and more! (also super nutrients for PCOS, fertility, Pre-conception, and Kids too!
In a food processor, pulse the following ingredients until the mixture comes together as a crumbly/chewy blend:
Toasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds (Any nut/seed works, raw seeds work too)
Dates, pits removed (Raisins work too)
Spoonful of virgin coconut oil
Chia seeds and Hemp seeds (optional)
Unsweetened coconut flakes
Raw honey
Vanilla extract (few drops) or vanilla bean powder
Sea salt (dash)
(Note: I like my seeds toasted, especially in the winter. But any raw seed or nut will work too. I am sure Michael only uses soaked/sprouted seeds or nuts, but this "recipe" will work with whatever you have! You can experiment by adding cinnamon, nutmeg, etc...)
You can buy all of the ingredients on Amazon for great prices (either in bulk or single packages):
By the way, this is especially nice when you just move in to a new place and your stove, oven, and fridge are not set up yet (or travelling in a hotel). As long as you have electricity for the food processor of course. Just use raw (untoasted) seeds if that is the case (or soaked if your heart desires).

Awwww Debra!!!! Congrats!!!!! That is so exciting! Congrats on your move too! Happy blessings to you!
ReplyDeleteI would suggest the chia or hemp seeds are vital not optional. Nutritionist in London Yvonne Bishop-Weston says "essential omega 3 fats, especially EPA and DHA, are vital for optimal health"
