Welcome
Hey There, I’m Sherilyn the creator of Wholepromise. This is where I venture outside of being a mum, wife and Fertility Nurse Specialist. I live on the Sunshine Coast in Qld, Australia and am spoilt by year round access to Farmers Markets offering a plethora of local, seasonal and organic produce. In all Wholepromise is my style of food, it’s the food I want my boys to appreciate and it’s the food that makes me happy. Styling and photographing it is just another bonus.

Gor.geous! I'm giddy just looking at it.

Wow! Great minds do think a like - used the same ingredients in my 'coconut & banana loaf' porridge. Yummy. Will be making these macaroons today. Makes a nice mini sweet treat.
ReplyDeleteGood stuff - thanks for a sugar fix that's actually a good idea. I added a bit of sesame seeds because I used a whole small banana. They came out lovely!
ReplyDelete~ P.S. Just found your blog and will be by again VERY soon! Nice photography, some easy treats to choose from, and food that makes my body and wallet happy (i.e. I don't have to get any odd, new ingredients I probably won't use elsewhere!).
Yummy and healthy, two thumbs up!
ReplyDeleteYum! I can't believe these are in the not-so-bad-for-you category, they look so decadent.
ReplyDeleteThey sound like a perfect treat! Yes, I love walnuts ;-)
