Healthy Snacks

[@brissygirl4997]

Kate have you ever thought about getting a pepper grinder? That way you don't need to use your mortar and pestle to grind your peppercorns, you just load them in the grinder, give it a few twists when your seasoning your meals and that's it.

[@kathy8418]

This is.Kathy from Brimfield MA wonderful videos. Thank you for these great recipes and your knitting content.

[@dianefields6056]

One-third of a cup is roughly 4 large (20ml) tablespoons or 5 smaller ones. Those snacks looked very delicious.

[@carolynshanks2612]

Kate, these snacks looked so tasty! Wish I could pop over and try them with you! Healthy eating is so important, yet doesn’t have to be boring. ❤️❤️❤️

[@shannjess5223]

I make the bliss balls minus the oil oh I love them for my sweet fix. I keep them in the freezer

It is a grey rainy day here in central oregon toooo. Snow coming tomorrow! For today I am making beef veggie stew and homemade rolls. I figure it's about 11:45pm where you are but its 3:45pm here. Have an hour and a half to wait till the rolls raise and can be baked. The best for a grey rainy day. Your video is making me really hungry. It all looks and sounds so yummy! Thanks for sharing Kate!

[@deenawatts3257]

Love seeing 2 videos in one day. I love your craft/sewing videos as well as the cooking ( and gardening, and chatting!) Thanks. Stay warm.

I enjoy all your videos, Kate, regardless of content. It's so interesting to see how you do the things you do and you explain so well. I'd like to try the date balls, my gran used to make stuffed ones at Christmas and I love them. Thanks for sharing.

[@dorothyzorn4828]

The sweet potato chips sound really good may have to try them.... thanks for sharing.

[@lynnjones5850]

Perfect content for me. Now that I have a sulphite allergy, I've been making all sorts of snacks and treats that I can enjoy. These ones look very good. Thanks

[@northernkarma9296]

That was a great video, and the smiles at the end - priceless! I'm going to try them all! .. and my hubby will love the sweet potato chips, that's his favy veg!

[@myhillsidegarden3998]

Kate, thank you for sharing these. I may give the sweet potato chips, as I have two sitting on the counter waiting. Perfect for a day where the temperatures are in the single digits and the wind chill has the temp currently at -15 F. Enjoy the day. Catherine

I am loving your channel! I'm looking to eat a more alkaline diet, too....great recipes! I have a box of sweet potatoes that I need to use pronto. :) I don't sew...but I'm still enjoying watching your instruction on the patchwork dog--SO cute! I also eyeball when cooking. Who wants to scrape things from one container to another and dirty a sink full of dishes? ;) The little bite-sized snacks are similar to Lara Bars--dates + other goodies= healthy snack. Love this idea! You have a winning personality and a beautiful smile! God bless!

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

Thank You!!! very much! I love cooking in that 'guesstimating' way! xxxx

[@claudiaebert7842]

Happy snack-time Kate!!!! All your snacks look delicious. I think I'd try the sweet potato chips and the cabbage chips. Nuts I love, but these, and even your little healthy balls are true calorie bombs. Three nuts every day, then it would have to work, hahaha!!!!! However, I would have to use a fat other than coconut oil as I just can't bear that smell. But in this case, you can also vary. Your measurement by proportion of proportion was absolutely funny. I usually do it that way when cooking. Not when baking, you should stick to the quantities. Nice if you have delicious and healthy snacks at home. Dear greetings Claudia

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

I like the regime I'm following because it has nothing to do with calories - but like I said - different things work for different people! and you are right about cake cooking - precision! xxx

[@lucybyrd2188]

These are great recipes. I am on a restart diet with my son and snacks are something we need. We are trying these today. Thanks!

[@carmenbailey8209]

Good morning Kate, love the recipes, your bliss balls I will definitely be making. I made energy balls made with dates ,prunes , sunflowers seeds,vanilla extract, cocoa powder and natural almond butter. My hubby & I love to have one for a afternoon pick me up. They’re on the sweet side so one is enough. I just keep them in the freezer, for a easy grab. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I’m one of those people who try’s to stay on the healthy side to stay on the top side of the grass 😊❤️

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

oh - I like that - on the top side of the grass! lets all try for that for as long as we can eh?! xxx

[@helenasalin5401]

Looks delicious, I'm definetly going to try those.

[@BethGrantDeRoos]

Made the soup you made that has carrots, ginger root, turmeric root, pumpkin. sweet potato tomatoes, lentils and every one loved it! Thankfully we have almond, date, pistachio trees in our area of California because pistachios are running around $8 US for 340 g or shy 12 ounces at the store. We love to roast chickpeas with seasoning salt. Kale chips. And us a mandolin to thin slice sweet potato for roasted chips. And we do 350*F or 170* C. Also make parsnip chips.

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

parsnip chips sound tasty! xxx

[@msjenjenp]

No fruit? I would never make it on that diet. This week, I made some roasted sweet potatoes, cut in chunks and seasoned with avocado oil plus a mix of chili powder, smoked paprika, pink salt, black pepper and a pinch of cayenne. They are delish hot, warm or cold. 😋

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

that sounds delicious! xxx

[@toodie535]

its about changing a holiday sugar-rich diet (creates improper acidity in your system) to a plant greens-rich diet (creates the proper alkalinity in your digestive tract) Holiday overload can create all sorts of bodily issues from aching joints to rosacea and other skin problems, with vitamin deficiencies thrown in for extra measure. Not forever, just till your gut is in balance again. Takes a while. It's really not hard.

I couldn't manage without my set of measuring cups, you should give them a go sometime. Bliss balls are ok 'eyeballed'. Thanks for sharing the healthy snacks.

ok - I'll tell you my problem with 'cups' vs measuring by weight - the volume of something can vary wildly - whereas the actual gram measurement is always accurate. Having said that - I mostly do with it with everything but cakes! xxxx

[@Victorialands]

Okay, this video has got me drooling. I’m definitely going to try these. I don’t eat sugar, that’s not to say I don’t like sugar... it doesn’t like me. So, I’m constantly in search of new treats to make. I love using date puree as a sweetener. So the bliss ball recipe is right up my alley. I like to invent recipes and I’ve made a loaded brownie recipe that’s great for when you’re on a hike or just feel like a little snack. It has flax seed meal, hemp hearts, chia seeds, unsweetened coconut, (you can’t taste it much) and unsweetened carob chips, (they’re naturally sweet) raisins and coco powder among a few other ingredients. It’s then sweetened with the date puree. If you’d like to try it let me know and I’ll send it along to you. But for now I think I’m going to give your treats a whirl! Oh boy! 💕

[@thelasthomelyhouse]

That sounds like a powerful snack that would keep you going for a long time - sugar is evil! natural sugars are where we should be getting our energy from and these sound amazing! xxxx

"What a palaver!" Isn't English interesting?! I like to make sweet potato chips. I'll have to try the date mixture and the cashews. Love cashews! Ready to finish the hand binding on my quilt. It will take a few evenings. A gray day needs a heater cat. Stay toasty!

[@TexasChance58]

We Americans don't use that word nearly enough! It is a perfect word!

[@lsk949]

It all looks yummy except I’ll pass on the cashews as I don’t like them. I wonder If I could use another nut in its place or should I say legume? Chickpea perhaps? That might be good with spice and I love those! 😃

Dear Kate, you are such an extraordinary delight. ✨ The snacks look so delicious, I must try. 🥣❣️

[@gingerleegirl6697]

I do my alkaline reset with lemon in my tea and a teaspoon of apple cider vinegar. After a few days the vinegar starts to taste pretty good. It’s kinda like eating a meal. You seem to always have cashews on hand, they are my favorite. Just wondering if they are expensive where you live? They are about $12.00 a pound here in Ohio. I like all of your videos, I would watch you do anything.
