Imperfectly Paleo

Is it a chocolate? A candy? A dessert? A sweet? A chocolate? I have no idea what to call these but I DO know that they are yummy and a treat! Matcha-Maca-Cacao Tricolor Treats

Broccoli Banana Bread jazzed up with a Mixed Seed Top I suggest the tasting come before the naming so as not to prejudice what is actually nothing more than a supercharged banana bread!

Oh I can just imagine the outcry from Paleo dogmatics as I dare to use the words 'Paleo' and 'Bean' in the same sentence! Tapioca Flour Sweet Red Bean Tong Yuen In anticipation of the backlash, I offer my advance apologies.
