This shelter-in-place order has got me testing out new recipes in the kitchen and I'm not mad about it! I wanted to make a vegan dessert that you didn't have to bake since it's getting hot here in Northern CA and I didn't want to heat up the house by turning on the oven. These … Continue reading Vegan No-Bake Chocolate Coconut Cashew Bars
It's Fall and what better way to start off the season than with a pumpkin pie protein smoothie! Personally, one of the few things I like about Fall is all the pumpkin flavored things. I'm a summer girl for sure so this is one of the ways I don't get too sad during the cold … Continue reading Pumpkin Pie Protein Smoothie Bowl
One of the recipes I love to make during summer are smoothies! There's nothing quite like a cold smoothie on a hot summer day. Unfortunately, a lot of smoothies you can buy at places like Jamba are loaded in sugar and are high in carbs, fat and calories. When you make them at home, you … Continue reading Mixed Berry Protein Smoothie Bowl
Wow, it's been a minute since I've posted on here! One of my goals this year is to be more consistent with my posts and I'll admit that I haven't been the best about it so far this year. However, it's a new month and I'm excited to share this recipe with you! Over the … Continue reading Double Chocolate Protein Cookies
Wow, this year is flying by! One of my goals this month is to publish a post at least once a week and as you can see I'm a little behind... The hardest part for me when I first started my fitness journey was my diet. Now before I go any further, let me explain … Continue reading What a Typically Day of Eating Looks Like
About a year ago, my friend told me she was going on a Keto diet to help her lose some weight. Not knowing what this was, I did a little research about it. The gist of this diet is that you eat a high fat, moderate carb and low protein diet in an effort to … Continue reading Chocolate Peanut Butter Treats
With Fall just around the corner, it's almost a given that I had to make something pumpkin-y. I honestly don't know why pumpkin flavored things are only around in the Fall. If it was up to me (and probably most girls) I'd have it available year-around. But I guess that's what makes it so special, … Continue reading Pumpkin Spice Protein Balls
I’ve been slacking on the recipes these past couple of months so here is one I discovered that turned out DELICIOUS! I found this recipe from Shape.com and modified it slightly. You can find the original receipt here. The recipe said to make 2 batches because you'll eat the first batch within 5 minutes and … Continue reading Reese’s Protein Balls
I've been on the hunt for some delicious protein balls but it seems that every time I make them, they end up chalky or really high in fat from all the peanut butter. I stumbled across @GraceFitUK's recipe and after reading some of the reviews, decided to test them out. To my surprise, they weren't … Continue reading Chocolate PB Protein Truffles
TGIT! I hope you all are as excited about the weekend as I am. I decided to write another blog about what I eat in a day to give you some ideas of healthy recipes and show you that eating healthy doesn't have to be boring. Below is what I ate on Wednesday, February 8th. I … Continue reading Full Day of Eating
