However, for the past two weeks now I have been following the Elimination Diet to try and ease up my ever growing list of Fibromyalgia symptoms and, amongst the gluten and dairy free foods I have had to cut out, an extra little list came on the side with more things to avoid, such as coffee, chocolate and sugars. While I wasn&#8217;t too concerned about having to cut out many of my favorite foods, not being able to have chocolate and coffee as often as I pleased ignited a panic within me that only a true chocolate lover can understand. Adamant to follow my diet as closely as possible, I started playing around with the few things I could eat and came up with these two delicious recipes below that&#8217;s vegan friendly, gluten free and dairy-free so, no matter your diet, you can definitley give these a go which I promise you will make time and time again!<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><strong>Gooey Almond Bites<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>1 cup medjool dates (or any dates soaked in some boiling water for 5 minutes)<\/li>\n<li>1\/2 cup chopped almonds<\/li>\n<li>2 tbsp carob powder (or cacao if you are not on the diet)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Simply chuck everything into a blender and blend until you get a sticky consistency. I made these into balls but they work just as well in a baking tray or square Tupperware covered in a light layer of pure cacao or carob powder. Keep it in the fridge so that it doesn&#8217;t melt.<\/p>\n<p>Options<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>They taste absolutely decadent just like this but if wish, you can roll them in cacao powder<\/li>\n<li>Feel free to play around with the recipe and add more nuts if you want a more crunch. You could also roll them in crushed almonds when they are done for a more &#8216;truffle&#8217; feel.<\/li>\n<li>You can use any nuts in the mixture, pecans work really well too but I much prefer the taste of almonds.<\/li>\n<li>If you want, you can add a shot of espresso to the mixture before blitzing all together to give it a subtle coffee kick.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Creamy coconut &#8220;ice-Cream&#8221;<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Having to give up ice cream was such a hard thing to do but I will admit, making this gluten free and dairy free version was so rewarding and utterly delicious. You can make a big batch and store them in the freezer in little containers for whenever the craving strikes or simply make them on demand! The recipe below is enough for 2 people (or one&#8230; no judgement!)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream.jpg\" data-lightbox=\"gal[8269]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"8272\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/index.php\/2017\/08\/01\/gluten-free-gooey-almond-bites-and-coconut-creamice-cream\/ice-cream\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"3000,2250\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"ice cream\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream-1024x768.jpg\" class=\"size-large wp-image-8272 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"665\" height=\"499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/fatimasaib.co.za\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/ice-cream-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 665px) 100vw, 665px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>2 Frozen bananas (I chop them up into little pieces before throwing in a zip-lock bag and freezing<\/li>\n<li>2 Tbsp coconut milk or cream (I fill an ice cube tray with coconut milk and cream and freeze it so that it&#8217;s even creamier when adding to this ice cream)<\/li>\n<li>a handful of frozen berries<\/li>\n<li>3 Tbsp fresh coconut (or dried)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Simply throw everything (besides the fresh coconut) together into a blender and blitz on high speed till the mixture goes creamy.
