20 Healthier Valentine’s Day Desserts

20 Healthier Valentine's Day Desserts | www.savorylotus.com

Doesn’t it seem like we just got through the holiday season of gluttony and sweets?  And now here we are again looking at Valentine’s Day.  But at least there are healthier choices.  Check out my recommendations for 20 Healthier Valentine’s Day Desserts.

I’m big on celebrations.  I love birthdays.  I love parties.  And I love holidays.  Mainly because they are excuses for me to get into the kitchen and make decadent desserts for the people that I love.  Don’t get me wrong.  You guys KNOW that I’m all about real food and healthy eating.  But a girl needs her chocolate fix, right?

I especially love Valentine’s Day because I am actually in love with love.  It just feels good.  Love is expressed in many ways.  You can share a hug, a kiss, a kind word.  Or you can just bake a cake.  A chocolate cake.  Or a cupcake.  Or a brownie.  Or a cookie.  That’s love, right?

And what scream LOVE better than a heart-shaped dessert or a ridiculously decadent chocolate something or other?  So go ahead.  Just do it.  Make some of these next level delicious desserts to show your love.  Your family and friends will thank you.  I simply adore these heart-shaped cookie cutters.  And homemade chocolate treats are easy to make with these heart-shaped candy molds.

And don’t worry.  All of the desserts here are made with real food ingredients.  They are all gluten and grain free.  I hope you enjoy!

LOVE,

Katja

  • Lake life is the life for me…. 🚣‍♂️👙🏊• slow days with sweet friends doing what we love ❤️
  • 💗 the older i get, the less interested i am in building a life that looks good from the outside • i’d rather build one i genuinely love living 

💗 this is my kind of vacation:

* a quiet lake
* my favorite people
* time outside 
* simple meals 

💗 nothing fancy 

💗 i think the  best parts of taking ownership of your life is realizing you get to decide what a good life looks like 

💗 spending time with BOTH of my girls is EVERYTHING  to me
  • ✨ 5 years ago, i completely uprooted my life because i felt a call for something different • i don’t have a single regret 

there is so much peace and power in intentionally creating a life aligned with your values and heart’s desire 

but it takes radical ownership of EVERY aspect of your life
  • 💪fitness is one of the biggest mood boosters in my life—not because it solves everything, but because it consistently gives me space to come back to myself 💪

💪sometimes the workout is the least important part • the real gift is becoming the kind of woman who keeps choosing herself, over and over again 💪
  • ✨this season has changed me in ways i never expected—and honestly, i think it’s making me a better woman • softer, slower, stronger, and more trusting ✨✨
  • ☀️sunlight sets the tone for my day and for my hormones • i’m 52• moving towards menopause • not doing complicated protocols, hormones or peptides • finding my way through slowing down, getting strong , simplifying, and being intentional with what ACTUALLY supports my body • every woman has a different journey • and i’m figuring out mine 💗
  • 💗 some things are out of our control • AND we have more agency over what happens to us than we think • a beautiful life is built in the habits we repeat 💗
  • • anyone else feel tired of all the noise? • trying to find my place here again • as i navigate big changes in my own life seasons • what actually makes a beautiful life ? 🌈✨
  • • becoming intentional about every aspect of my life has brought so much peace, contentment, and joy into my life • as i get older, i crave a slower, more deliberate pace to life • feeling grateful • 🙏
