Ok, I haven’t written a blog for a while since I have been putting a bit of energy in to my own training & prep along with managing work and family life….
But I know once I share this AH-MAZING guilt-free Choc Brownie Recipe with you, all will be forgiven!
When I am deep in to comp prep, and cheat meals are no longer existent I seem to want to feed those around me more. And since my partner is being so supportive this prep and doing his own little “prep” with me, it seems it is my son Harry that gets to enjoy the goodness of my cooking/feeding!
This recipe for all you “sweet-toothers” out there has a guilt free factor as it has limited sugars and is based on chick peas – a versatile legume rich in fibre, protein, manganese & iron.
Here you go! Afternoon slumps will never be the same again…
