Cashew, Coconut Fudge
Well this is SO good, and we have several iterations of this recipe on here that we have done for various reasons with varying flavours. I am a little addicted to it. (Or is it addicted to me?) I don't feel guilty at all eating more than one piece, though you shouldn't eat too much of anything we are told. If balance is a piece of fudge in each hand, I have you covered. Try it and see how you feel!
BENEFITS:
Maca powder is known to help balance hormones, alleviate depression, benefit your bones, increase energy and libido and is an all round great addition to your morning smoothie. However, don't go wild with it. Too much is not good for you.
Peppermint oil is calming, refreshing and is known to promote healthy respiratory systems.
