Angela: This week we have an awesome recipe from our friends at CleanBites. Celina and Mariana are two lifelong friends that have a passion for food, cooking, keeping active and moving to the beats of Latin music. This loaf is high in protein, gluten free and vegetarian friendly. Enjoy…

Made this walnut slice this afternoon but will add some spices to it next time. Still very yummy but would also use silicone bakeware as it all fell apart when I tried to get it out of the loaftin. Had sprayed with coconut spray but to no avail. Will also add the walnuts to the top before I bake it…
Great recipe and very thankful when I get the munchies!!!!
Mine looked more like chocolate cake and tasted Awesome!!! 5 stars.
