RE: Easy, Ready To Go When You Are Super-food Protein Bars! (Vegan, Gluten-Free!)
Yum! These look delicious. It's so awesome that you've moved to Bali as well! So jealous of all the tropical fruits you have access to.
You know what? I THOUGHT I would have access to tons of fruits and maybe I do and am just too used to them now, but there actually isn't a huge variety! I have been many other places in the world that grow much more diverse produce but Bali sticks with the main popular stuff like pineapple, papaya, oranges. I am trying to convince the farmers to plant more ;)
Ahh i always thought it would have more mangosteen, soursop and dragonfruit! I would live off them if they had them haha
OK, see, here's what I meant by too used to them- there ARE those fruits but only when in season. Soursop is my favourite fruit but it's timely... and they don't tend to grow as much of it as I would if I were them ;) Same for mangosteen, at least where I am. You can get it sometimes when it's in season but it's SUPER expensive! Dragonfruit depends. It got to the point recently that it was like $2/3 a piece so I stopped buying it but then I missed it and caved in and bought one then the price went back down but anyways long story short, it's seasons and pricing that get me. I planted a bunch of fruit trees though. I love all the tropical stuff that the locals don't seem to appreciate as much ;) <3
