reclaim that energy from your twenties
“Fat bombs” have been all the rage lately in the health food sphere, and for good reason! When you include healthy fats in your diet, you’re setting yourself up for longer-lasting, steady energy. These little bites will give you more energy and keep you satisfied a lot longer than that granola bar in your purse!
These Pumpkin Spice Mousse Bars are so delicious, my husband finished the entire batch in 2.5 days! They are creamy and full of Fall flavor. And they’re gluten-free, grain-free, refined sugar-free, and dairy-free to boot!

These little babies are the perfect ending to my dinner. The mint taste helps to signal to my brain that the meal is over and I don’t really crave anything else, such as a full-on dessert, after I’ve had one or two of these. And the coconut butter and cacao butter make it feel like you’re indulging in a rich bite of a sweet dessert, and yet there’s absolutely no sweetener! You’re getting a good dose of healthy fats, too!
