I took a few weeks off of blogging about some of my favorite recipes but wanted to start up again this week! I like to post my favorite recipes every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Most of my recipes have a little bit of a “healthy” twist to them – although every now and then, I’ll post a truly decadent recipe that has no nutritional value whatsoever. 😉
If you liked my Edible Raw Cookie Dough Recipe, you will like this recipe! These Raw Cookie Dough Bites will satisfy your cravings for raw cookie dough and you won’t even realize that the bites have NO flour! Instead, the bites utilize oats and dates. Dates are one of my favorite super foods They are low-calorie and are packed with fiber. The Raw Cookie Dough Bites are soft and chewy and require no baking whatsoever. I can’t wait to hear what all of you think after you try this recipe!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
