Herbal Strategy is being featured in our October Fit Snack box!
Herbal Strategy is “your guide to foods that heal”. A renowned chef is behind the creation of this super food blend, he ensures each ingredient is the highest quality.

Looking to enjoy HALLOWEEN while still treating your body right?
While we will be sure to include some tasty treats in our October box, we have a couple of recipes that are our favorite this time of year! They help satisfy our cravings while still being festive and guilt-free!
“Boo” Nana Pops
Ingredients
- Bananas
- White chocolate (1 oz. per 1/2 banana)
- Chocolate chips
- Popsicle sticks
Instructions:
- Cut bananas into fourths (by width and then by length)
- Melt white chocolate
- Insert popsicle stick into flat end & dunk into white chocolate
- Add chocolate chips for eyes and chill in fridge until ready
Witch Finger Cookies (paleo + vegan!)
Ingredients:
- 1/2 Cup Coconut oil at room temperature (should be the consistency of softened butter)
- 1/4 Cup + 3 Tbsp Honey *
- 1/2 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp Almond extract
- 1 Cup Coconut floursifted (88g)
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 16 sliced almonds
- For the strawberry jelly: **
- 3/4 Cup frozen strawberries thawed and roughly chopped (170g – measured when fullythawed and soft)
- 2 Tbsp Honey *
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, using an electric hand mixer, beat together the honey and coconut oil and smooth and creamy. Add in the vanilla and almonds extracts and beat once more.
- Add the coconut flour and salt into the bowl and stir until well combined, and a wet dough forms. Scrape the dough onto a large piece of saran wrap and wrap into a flat, thin disc. Place into the refrigerator until firm and roll-able, about 25-30 minutes.
- While the dough chills, preheat your oven to 325 degrees and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
- In a small sauce pan, combine the chopped berries and honey and bring to a b
oil over medium heat. Cook the berries, stirring frequently, until they become very thick and smooth, about 13-14 minutes. Make sure to really keep an eye at them near the end of cooking time, so they don’t burn.
- Transfer the berry mixture to a bowl and mash with a fork. Place into the refrigerator to set up.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll 1 Tbsp sized balls into 4 inch long finger-shapes, that are about 1/2 an inch thick. Place onto the prepared baking sheet and firmly press an sliced almond into the tip of the finger, to create fingernails. Remove the almond before baking. Then, using a small, sharp knife, make several horizontal, shallow cuts just under the finger nail, and then in the center of each finger, to represent knuckles. Lightly press in the dough on either sides of the knuckles to shape them. Place the whole pan into the freezer for 10 minutes.
- Once frozen, bake the cookies until golden brown, and lightly crackly about 12-13 minutes.
- Once cooled, dip the bottom of the finger into the strawberry jam, so it looks like it’s been cut off. Then, fill the finger nail space with a dollop of the jam, and press in a sliced almond.
Spooky Teeth
Ingredients
Apples
- Jar of peanut or almond butter (you will use about 1/4 to a 1/2cup for one apple-depending on amount you use)
- Mini marshmallows
Instructions:
- Cut apple into 8 slices, then into smaller pieces to your preference
- Put about 1-2 teaspoons of peanut butter onto each slice
- Put a row of mini marshmallows across one apple slice
- Sandwich the two slices together and press firmly until they stick together
Have a happy, healthy and spooky Halloween!
