KALE. what? yes. in these brownies is a whole huge bunch of fresh, organic kale. and they are delicious! you can easily throw these together in 5-10 minutes and have a delicious snack to go to in a pinch. or something to fill that chocolate craving in a healthy way! i used stevia to sweeten these, keeping them low in sugar, but high in good fats and satisfying protein + fiber!
ingredients:
2 c de-stemmed kale, packed
1/4 t sea salt
2 c raw walnuts
1 c raw pecans
2 t vanilla bean powder
1/4 c chia gel (1/4 c chia seeds soaked in 1 c water overnight)
stevia to taste
2/3 c raw carob powder
water
-add kale and salt to your food processor and process until well-chopped. add all other ingredients and process well, adding water, 1 t at a time until it all comes together well, without being too sticky.
-line a 9x13 glass dish with parchment paper and evenly press brownies into the bottom. sprinkle the top with coconut flakes and set in freezer for about an hour, then remove, slice, and serve! stores best in freezer (let thaw for 5 minutes before eating).
note: i chopped one of these brownies up and topped my peppermint green smoothie...it was amazing.
