Move over, matcha, there’s a new super-green stepping into the spotlight. Moringa is a brilliant emerald-colored powder that’s packed with nutritional benefits. According to an article by the National Institute of Health, moringa has 10 times the vitamin content of carrots, 17 times more calcium than milk, 15 times more potassium than a banana, and twice the protein of yogurt. (Keep in mind that we’re talking about equal weights, and you’ll likely never eat an amount of moringa equal to a container of yogurt, yet moringa’s ability to deliver high-quality nutrition is still very impressive) 

I'm Jennifer Jolorte Doro, a clinical nutritionist, cofounder, and culinary director of Nouri, one of Territory's chef partners. These high-protein snacks are ideal for those moments when your energy starts to lag. They’re loaded with healthy fats and lots of nutrients like iron and B vitamins. Dates and coconut add plenty of natural sweetness without added sugar. 

⅔ cup raw cashews
½ cup pitted Medjool dates
¼ cup shredded unsweetened coconut
2 ½ teaspoons olive oil 
1 tsp moringa powder

Add the cashews, dates, coconut, and olive oil to a food processor and process until well blended. Roll or scoop the mixture into balls, about 12 to 18 depending on how large or small you care to make them. Sprinkle with moringa powder.
