Candy Calderon’s 2 Easy Valentine’s Day Recipes For A Lighter Way To Love

Valentin’es Day falls on a Wednesday this year, and you know what that means, right? Decadent cakes and elaborate meals? No! Ain’t nobody got time for that on a Wednesday! This Valentine’s Day calls for quick and inexpensive recipes that are as easy to make as they are to love. 

That’s where Candy Calderon comes in. As a blogger and Certified Holistic Health Coach, Candy knows how to keep meals light without compromising on taste. Case in point: Maca Chocolate Balls. We love chocolate truffles as much as the next Latinx, but if you’re trying to stick to a healthy living mantra, then these goodies are the way to go. Oats and chia seeds make them a good source of vitamins, while cacao nibs and maca act as natural aphrodisiacs, for sweet treats that will keep you going all day and all night (wink, wink). Plus these chocolate maca balls are ready in minutes and don’t require baking, hallelujah! 

For further proof that healthy can be sexy, check out Candy’s Skinny Blush Sangria. If you’re a card-carrying member of the Rosé All Day Club, then this is all you. Rosé wine, sparkling water, and orange juice make this a gorgeous, sippable, and low-calorie cocktail. Watch the video below!
