Raw Lemon Slice

RAW LEMON SLICE 

I love having a slice pre-made in the fridge for the week. It get's me through the 3pm slump, toddler meltdowns and snack attacks. Perfect with a cup of tea this little slice is sooo simple and a fresh zingy break from chocolate! Sorry chocolate...don't be mad. Enjoy x Ash
