Raw Chewy Hemp Date 2-Bite Brownies | Vegan Adventure Snack

June 14, 2019 By julia

The ridiculously easy and supremely mouth watering answer to your snack attack. Take these date 2-bite brownies on every adventure or camping trip you go on this summer. Make a big batch because they go quick.

Dates are the perfect thing to bring on your hiking mission. They’re packed with minerals, vitamins, energy and fiber. They taste amazing. They’re crazy versitile. They pack into your adventure bag like no thang.

I’m a fan of packing straight up dates for mountain bike missions, camping weekends, or even travel days. But, adding extra goodness to the dates and blending it all together… that’s next level, and not too much effort either.

You could totally make these into balls, but sometimes it’s nice to be lazy by just pressing them down into a pan and making the knife do the hard work.

ONWARD to the recipe.

Tag @hookedonplants on instagram if you make these, and let me know what adventure they’re going on with you.

🌱 SKIN LOVING TIPS ⤵️ From a simple is bet 🌱 SKIN LOVING TIPS ⤵️ 
From a simple is better, 30 somethin’, long routine avoiding kinda gal…who wants to support elastin & boost collagen 🤷‍♀️ 

I’ve had an interesting relationship with my skin, especially in high school. 
Did so much to try to manage it…accutane…birth control pills.👎🏼

The biggest skin game-changer for me was going vegan 7 years ago & ditched the dairy especially. 
My skin was NOTICEABLY less inflamed (no more hormones coming from my food). 

I’m not ‘use a million products’ kinda gal, but now at 34, I guess it’s time to start giving a little extra attention to the skin care regime 😆 

🌱 Lifestyle tips + products I’m loving right meow 🌱

#1: nutrition: eat whole plant foods packed with fibre & water content. Minimize the processed foods & sugar. Focus on plant protein from legumes, organic soy, seeds (add a little @Complement Chocolate Protein to your lattes)

#2: support your gut: focus on 🌱 diversity, fermented foods, and add pre-biotics and postbiotics to your life (love @Complement Gut Nurture)

#3: greens: pack your smoothie with as much as possible, top everything with sprouts, add a greens powder to your life (most potent: @complement Daily Greens)

#4: antioxidants! From plants, especially berries. Amp it up with functional mushrooms (hello, @staywyldorganics)

#5: nutrient support: take these 8 skin & hair-supporting essentials (B12, vegan D3, K2, zinc, selenium, magnesium, DHA/EPA omegas, iodine…all in @complement’s daily vegan minty multi) 

#6: creams & things:
I’m a new, huge fan of @puritywoodsinc Dream, Eye,Night Creams, and Elastin Serum. 
Created by vegans at the @art_ofantiaging. 
They use Maple Leaf and other amazing organic plant organic ingredients specifically for skin elasticity and collagen production support. 
And, oh my lawwwrd it smells so fresh & citrusy 👌 My skin is feeling noticeably smoother after a month of this!
Also: algae face mask… slap the ocean on the face with @beauty.botanics made by local, Ahnnabelle 💕

#7: stress less & sweat more: every day

3 steps to evolving as a human ⬇️ 1) Listen f 3 steps to evolving as a human ⬇️

1) Listen for that voice inside your head…
2) When it says ‘I don’t think I can do that’ or
‘That freaks me out’ or
‘I’m not (strong/smart/confident) enough to make that happen’ …
That’s your sign to move closer, to jump right in & embrace whatever it is that’s scaring you.
3) Do the thing

Surprise yourself with what you’re actually capable of. 

This is just one of many slices of golden quotes from an interview with my incredible Grandma, Joyce. 

‘Constant learning about one self, constant. 
If only I had only known I could do that, if only I had the confidence, I might have made a few difference choices … we really don’t know until it happens. 
You can surprise yourself. 
You can find abilities you didn’t know you had.‘

Joyce 💕 what a gem. 

Working towards this every day, just a little. 

Maybe you are too? 

What’s the last thing you did that pushed you out of your comfort zone?

3. Spread coconut shreds on a plate
4. Shape date mixture into small balls with wet hands and drop them onto the plate (a few at a time). Shake the plate so the balls get coated with coconut shreds.
