Bean-to-bar Bliss Balls
We've been inspired over recent months by the wonderfully talented people we have in NZ! Its been a weird time for most of us but to see the creativity and deliciousness that has come out of slowing down is something we have found really comforting.
Over the next few weeks we will be sharing some of the recipes our OCHO followers have created. First up is Kelsi Boocock, a big fan of creating plant based recipes and sharing them with her followers online, she made these wholesome and not too naughty bliss balls. Let us know if you give them a go - we'd love to hear your feedback!
