Every person knows that in order to truly be healthy you need to eat a naturally healthy and balanced diet and get a proper level of exercise. The sad thing is that, at the end of the day, we don’t always have the time or energy required for a healthy lifestyle. At the end of the day, most of us want to go home, not to the gym. A delicious, grease laden burger is usually our food of choice and not a crunchy green salad (unless we are vegetarians). You will be happy to discover that getting healthy doesn’t have to be hard. If you keep going with it, you’ll get all of the required exercise and healthy food. Here are some of the best ways to be healthy.
Be smart when you do your grocery shopping. When you make informed and wise purchases at the grocery store, your meals will get healthier immediately. Think about it: you aren’t going to want to deal with a chaotic store or a long drive through line at the end of the day. You want to go home and make a little something from your kitchen. Fill your cabinets with wholesome foods. This way—even if you decide on something a little greasy or not as good for you as it could be, you’re still choosing foods that are better for you than you would get at the local diner or fast food drive through window.
There are all sorts of activities that you can do to get wholesome. Intensive gym visits and narrowly defined diets are not always the solution. Little things, when done each day, can do a lot to enable you to get healthy and lose pounds. Make shrewd choices every day is a great start. A suitable amount of physical activity each day is also critical. The numbers on the scale aren’t the only indication of your healthfulness. You need to make your body as strong you can make it.
We hope you got benefit from reading it, now let’s go back to vickys scottish chocolate macaroon bars, gf df ef sf nf recipe. To cook vickys scottish chocolate macaroon bars, gf df ef sf nf you need 4 ingredients and 12 steps. Here is how you do it.
The ingredients needed to make Vickys Scottish Chocolate Macaroon Bars, GF DF EF SF NF:
- Use 120 grams cold mashed potatoes
- Use 480 grams icing / powdered sugar*
- You need 240 grams plain chocolate, I use Plamil vegan brand
- Take 120 grams dessicated coconut or chopped mixed nuts
Steps to make Vickys Scottish Chocolate Macaroon Bars, GF DF EF SF NF:
- Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper
- Mix the mashed potato and icing sugar together until very stiff
- You may need more than I've stated. This particular time I needed almost 600g icing sugar, it depends which variety of potatoes you use. Starchy are best. The aim is for the mixture to be only slightly sticky to the touch
- Dust your hands with icing sugar then take heaped tablespoons of the potato mixture and roll into balls between your hands. Set aside on the lined tray and flatten slightly. This can be a bit messy!
- Freeze for 30 minutes
- Melt the chocolate by blasting in 15 - 30 second increments in the microwave, melting over a bain marie or temper it as shown in my previously posted 'how to temper chocolate' recipe. Set aside to cool a bit
- Put the coconut / chopped nuts in a bowl and set aside
- Dip the chilled potato rounds in the melted chocolate, then coat in the coconut / nuts
- Set on a wire rack over more parchment to catch any drips then place back on the lined tray and freeze for 15 minutes to set
- Store in a lidded container in the fridge
- They are very sweet so I use dark chocolate to balance them. You can make the rounds smaller if you like, more bitesize
- Lees Scottish Macaroon Bars are a very popular confectionery bar in the UK. They come in a rectangular shaped bar
