No-Bake PB & J Energy Bites

Hello, and welcome to Mama’s Kitchen Tales! I’m Malak, and I’m thrilled to embark on this culinary journey with you. Here, in my cozy corner of the internet, food isn’t just about sustenance—it’s a story woven with love, health, and a deep-rooted passion for nourishing those we care about.

Food has always been at the heart of my home. Growing up, I was inspired by my mom’s love for hosting and cooking, which sparked my own journey into the kitchen. But it was when my children faced health challenges that I truly delved into understanding the profound impact of food on our well-being.

As a natural health practitioner and a mom of three, I’ve learned that what we eat plays a pivotal role in our health. That’s why I’ve dedicated myself to creating recipes that are not only delicious but also wholesome and nourishing. My recipes lean towards the healthy side, emphasizing whole foods while limiting white carbs, sugar, and dairy. I believe in an “all food” approach to nutrition, respecting those who choose veganism or other dietary paths.

In Mama’s Kitchen Tales, you’ll find dishes crafted without processed foods, using whole grains like spelt and ancient grains, and sugar replaced with natural alternatives like coconut sugar or fruit sugars when needed. I draw inspiration from my mom’s traditional recipes, diverse cookbooks, and culinary practices from around the world. Each recipe I share is infused with a holistic approach, some even offering healing properties to support our well-being.

Here, you’ll discover recipes tailored for every season—whether it’s comforting dishes for flu season, meals that adults will savor (while still pleasing the little ones), or ideas for hosting memorable dinners and wholesome snacks for kids. It’s a blend of flavors and traditions designed to bring joy to your table.

I’m not a chef or a doctor, but rather a mom on a mission to provide the best start for her family through the power of good food. Join me as I share my favorite recipes, kitchen tips, and insights into a holistic approach to cooking and living. Let’s cook, share stories, and savor the journey together at Mama’s Kitchen Tales!
