Minsan nag-iisip tayo ng kung anong idea para sa extra income na madaling kumita. Isang magandang ideya sa negosyo para sa dagdag na kita sa culinary realm ay ang magtatag ng pagkain. Sa pagtaas ng pangangailangan para sa maginhawa ngunit malusog na mga pagpipilian sa pagkain, ang pag-aalok ng mga pre-made na pagkain o mga serbisyo sa pagtutustos ng pagkain ay maaaring maging isang kapaki-pakinabang na pakikipagsapalaran. Sa pamamagitan ng paghahanda ng masustansya at masasarap na pagkain nang maramihan, makakatipid ng oras ang mga customer sa pagpaplano ng pagkain, pamimili ng grocery, at pagluluto habang tinatangkilik pa rin ang mga lutong bahay na pagkain. Bukod pa rito, sa pamamagitan ng pag-aalok ng mga nako-customize na plano sa pagkain, mga paghihigpit sa pandiyeta, at mga opsyon sa paghahatid, ang negosyo ay maaaring magsilbi sa isang malawak na hanay ng mga kliyente, na higit pang nagpapalawak ng potensyal na kita nito. Sa pagtutok sa mga de-kalidad na sangkap, mahusay na operasyon, at mahusay na serbisyo sa customer, ang isang meal prep o catering na negosyo ay may potensyal na makabuo ng tuluy-tuloy na daloy ng karagdagang kita habang tinutupad ang lumalaking pangangailangan sa merkado.

Narito ang isa sa aking ideya na recipe na madaling gawin na homemade dessert recipe para sa small business.

No-Bake Energy Balls⤵️

Mga sangkap:⤵️

• 1 tasang rolled oats

• 1/2 tasang nut butter (gaya ng peanut butter, almond butter, o cashew butter)

• 1/4 tasa ng pulot o maple syrup (anumang abot-kayang presyo ng honey o abot-kayang presyo na syrup, medyo may kamahalan ang maple sa Pilipinas)

• 1/4 tasang mini chocolate chips o pinatuyong prutas (tulad ng mga pasas, cranberry, o tinadtad na petsa o anumang abot-kayang presyo ng pinatuyong prutas tulad ng tinadtad na diced na mangga, tinadtad na diced na pinya, atbp)

• 1/4 cup ground flaxseed o chia seeds (o anumang abot-kayang presyo ng mga nuts kagaya ng peanuts, kasoy, or linga) (bihira ang flaxseed sa Pilipinas at minsan may kamahalan pa kaya ang pamalit ng flaxseed at chia seed ay linga .)

• 1 kutsarita ng vanilla extract

• Kurot ng asin

• Opsyonal: ginadgadgad na niyog, cocoa powder, o dinurog na mani para sa coating.

Paraan kung paano ihanda:⤵️

1. Sa isang malaking mixing bowl, pagsamahin ang rolled oats, nut butter, honey o maple syrup, chocolate chips o dried fruit, ground flaxseed o chia seeds, vanilla extract, at asin.

2. Haluin hanggang ang lahat ng mga sangkap ay mahusay na pinagsama at bumuo ng isang makapal, malagkit na dough.

3. Kung masyadong tuyo ang timpla, magdagdag ng kaunti pang nut butter o honey/maple or any syrup. Kung ito ay masyadong basa, magdagdag ng higit pang mga oats o ground flaxseed/chia seeds.

4. Kapag nahalo na ang dough, gamitin ang iyong mga kamay para igulong ito sa maliliit na bola, mga 1 pulgada ang diyametro.

5. Kung ninanais, igulong ang mga bola ng enerhiya sa ginadgad na niyog, pulbos ng kakaw, o dinurog na nuts upang mabalutan ang mga ito.

6. Ilagay ang mga energy ball sa isang baking sheet na nilagyan ng parchment paper at palamigin ang mga ito sa refrigerator ng hindi bababa sa 30 minuto upang matigas.

7. Kapag pinalamig, ilipat ang mga bola ng enerhiya sa isang lalagyan na airtight at itago ang mga ito sa refrigerator hanggang sa dalawang linggo.
