So, now this is fun for me! In my mom’s recipe box, I found the original copy of a recipe that my friend Paulette and I used for a FHA contest in high school or maybe even junior high. FHA is Future Homemakers of America and was one of the chief inspirations for me going into the field of Dietetics. Shout out to Mrs Campbell the FHA advisor and Home Ec teacher.
We entered this in the contest and went to FHA national contest in Minneapolis. This was my first trip to the twin cities in my life! It was a big deal at the time! We lived 5hours north in rural MN in a farming community. Look how worn this recipe card is-we made this over and over for so many events by the time state came.
So here is the recipe in the Low Fodmap version:
Ingredients:
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 cup honey (clover is best for low fodmap)
1 cup ground flaxseed (sub for toasted wheat germ)
1 cup chopped peanuts
1/2 cup sunflower seeds
Coconut for rolling
Directions:
Mix all items in bowl until smooth. Roll in balls about the size of walnuts. Roll in coconut if desired. If using a refridgerated peanut butter, keep refridgerated.
