    You must try these healthy protein packed baked donuts! You can really get creative on flavor. The picture above I make with chocolate protein powder. These baked donuts are great for a quick and easy breakfast or dessert. I would recommend eat them with a side of bacon and eggs. My kids love these and totally freaked out the day I made them! “You made DONUTS!?!?!” I just love seeing their excitement over these healthy baked donuts. These did not last very long in our house they are pretty much gone as soon as they are glazed. Comment below and tell me what you think of this recipe. I’d love…

    May 8, 2017 / 7 Comments

    This recipe is so good and super fast to make! This one is some  fudgey goodness in my mouth. If you love chocolate as much as I do, you will enjoy this chocolatey tastebud overload after taking your first sensuous bite. Homemade Fudge Brownie Protein Bars This recipe is clean, lean and uses only real food ingredients.   I highly recommend using a  powerful blender food processor or a. I use a Blendtec for this recipe to make it as smooth and rich as possible for best taste. Just make sure you blend it really well, until it’s ULTRA smooth. Like smoother than smooth.  Other than that, just keep in mind the chocolate chips on top…

    May 5, 2017 / 0 Comments

    Image credit: Skinny Taste =)   Okay, I am so in love with avocado toast!! It’s a great balanced breakfast with healthy fats, and lots of protein. What do you like to eat for breakfast? Don’t skip breakfast! I do recommend intermittent fasting. Meaning if your last meal is at 6:30 pm your next meal would be 6:30 AM. I will write a whole blog on this going into detail on the benefits of intermittent fasting.
