Flap jack

[SaxmanAD]

Hi folks, I hope y'all beating well. Can anyone advise on a healthy flapjack type of recipe if there is something around as I am a manual worker & need energy boosts through the day.

Many thanks

Has your doctor suggested any changes to your diet/type of food to eat? Are you allergic to any food/drink?

Hi, generally advised by heart consultant to drop some weight, yeah I'm allergic to salads 🤦🏻‍♂️😂.

Do you eat bananas? You might be able to add them to your flapjacks.

I read that bananas were high in potassium & to avoid them, used to get lots of bananagy👍

Cereals are one of the biggest contributors to obesity, you're better off eating a sausage roll.

Hey Saxman,

A friend of mine recently started making their own 'cereal bars' (it's basically flapjack) filled with seeds and nuts to give them more protein/energy. Might be an idea you could use? They tend to put in sunflower seeds, sesame seeds and pumpkin seeds. You could also add honey and/or raisins to add a bit of flavour.

Should be good for energy and the nuts will be healthier than a normal flapjack!
