I love these as a quick energy snack. I keep them in the refrigerator almost all the time. They are sweet enough to make me feel like I am getting a treat, but they have enough good stuff to help with energy fixes and muscle recovery. Store in the refrigerator.

African Chicken Stew
This delicious African chicken stew recipe was inspired by my friend from Sierra Leone, West Africa, who cooks often for her family. Many ingredients can be modified, just use whatever you have on hand. Serve over white rice and garnish with unsalted peanuts and freshly chopped cilantro or parsley.
Lamb Tagine
When I first made this Moroccan lamb tagine, I left the kitchen window open. The smell attracted several neighbors and my husband who came in and said that it smelled so good that he hoped it was coming from our house and not from someone else's! If you don't have a tagine, you can use a heavy-bottomed pot.
Instant Pot Chicken and Dumplings
This Instant Pot chicken and dumplings recipe provides the richness of a long-simmered chicken stew without the fuss of using a whole chicken. This compromise — using boneless skinless chicken thighs with bone-in chicken breast — gave me the richness of flavor and ease of preparation I was looking for.
