FAT BOMBS ... On any other plan you would think this was a mistake you made. It sounds more like a response to a friend asking how your diet is coming along, "Oh I fat bombed it completely today ... maybe tomorrow will be better" But today was awesome because not only are Fat Bombs okay they are encouraged. Fat Bombs are easy to make, satisfying, so incredibly decadent and have about 2 net carbs per bomb. Today I spent most of my time organizing my closet - it's something that I love to do. I think it makes me feel like an incredibly well adjusted adult. Especially if I can get all my laundry sorted and stored away 1. in the same day and 2. in an orderly fashion. But it's also incredibly motivating - the back half of my closet is crammed full of items that I love but can't wear comfortably. If you bend over and feel as though your pencil skirt is sawing you in half - I'd like to emphasize how powerful a KETO meal plan can be in helping you make your way to the back half of your closet. Fat Bombs are just another tool to get you there. A tasty tasty tool ... After I mastered being an adult this afternoon I turned my attention to meal planning and wanted to incorporate a few sweet treats into this week's menu by way of making two kinds of Fat Bombs: 1. Hazelnut & Coconut (4 ingredients total) 2. Peanut Butter & Chocolate (3 ingredients total) Of note: I meant to sprinkle sea salt on top of the hazelnut & coconut ones but spaced it entirely. That little salty bite would be fairly spectacular and it would also enhance the other flavors. Now that I think about it, I also spaced it the last time I made them as well. I'm not sure what's going on with me and my inability to add this ingredient but I seemingly refuse to do so. HAZELNUT & COCONUT FAT BOMBS:
PEANUT BUTTER FAT BOMBS:
HOW TO: They are the easiest thing to make. I do think having a silicone candy mold is the key to having an easy go at making fat bombs as they just pop out perfectly each and every time.
TIPS:
I think they also lend a sort of luxury to the meal plan as they are so decadent. For those of you that like something sweet to end a meal, they are perfect and will satisfy that need. I have always preferred savory over sweet but every so often I crave a bit of chocolate. For me these are a really easy way to feel like you're indulging while staying on track. My goal is to be able to walk into my closet and wear absolutely anything - no treat is worth derailing that. With Fat Bombs you don't have to compromise and that's pretty awesome. In my next batch I may add Bacon - a bit of crunchy savory in my sweet!! Stay Tuned!
