Alright babes, who else is ready for Easter this weekend?!🙋🏼‍♀️ (Or maybe the better question is who else completely forgot about Easter this weekend??😬 Because your girl here definitely did...) Normally we have a big celebration with my family & Charlie’s family but obviously things are going to look a little different this year. But that doesn’t mean we can’t still have some fun Easter treats right?!😉 These babies are made with only 6 ingredients, can easily be made dairy free/vegan & let’s face it, it’s cookie butter so you know they’re already a winner!🙌🏻
.
Hope you’re all having a great Tuesday loves!😊💕

1/8 tsp salt
1 cup chocolate chips (use dairy free if needed)

3. Melt the chocolate chips & coconut oil together in the microwave.
4. Dip your slightly frozen eggs in the melted chocolate & place them back on the tray. Put the tray in the fridge & wait until the chocolate sets. Eat up!

They’re incredibly easy to make, can easily be made gluten free (depending on the pretzels you use), are baked instead of fried AND are the tastiest & crunchiest nuggets I’ve ever had!😋 (Not to mention, I could put that sauce on everything!🤤)

Like most of us, I’ve been trying to clean out my fridge & freezer & honestly I had no idea there was so much ground turkey in there!😱 So I’ve been making meatballs up the wah-zoo lately!
