Vanilla Maple Coconut Strips!

After spending way too much money on these at Whole Foods I decided to make my own version of this healthy snack which is a perfect addition to a homemade trail mix! I like to add sprouted walnuts &  Lily’s Chocolate Chips . The combination of Omega 3’s, magnesium, flavonoids and MCT make this a perfect mid day brain boost (keto friendly) or anytime snack. Add in some dried berries for antioxidants and carbs and you will be on your way!
