Yummy & Healthy!

 I have a deep love for any kind of protein drink. They are so useful for many different reasons. One reason is if I don't have enough time for breakfast in the morning I can make a quick smoothie or have one ready in the refrigerator. They're also perfect for when you have those late-night cravings! Let's face it, I have those every night. These smoothies have really helped me from binging on late-night snacks. Protein drinks are simple, save time, & they're delicious! You can purchase them at any local health food store, or just make them yourself! I love making them myself because I can customize it to how I like it and get creative as well! This is a recipe I've used in the past that I absolutely love!

WHAT YOU NEED: 

• Protein Powder (your choice in brand) I like DYMATIZE ISO 100
• Vanilla Almond Milk
• Frozen Fruit (preferably berries)
• All Natural Peanut Butter
• Natural Raw Organic Honey
• 1 Banana 
• Ice     

1. First, pour the Almond milk in the blender to about 6 oz.
2. Then add 1 scoop of protein powder (add more protein if you're feeding more than one person).
3. Next, add 1 cup of frozen fruit. You can also add the banana in this step. (I like the banana in this smoothie for its added taste).
4. 1 tsp of the natural peanut butter. 
5. 1 tsp of the natural raw organic honey. 
6. Add 1.5 cups of ice. I like my smoothie to be cold and thick!
7. Blend, blend, blend!
8. Sip and enjoy!

German Pancakes.

 My family calls them mountains. 

But most probably know them as German pancakes.

Anyways, they are simply amazing and make such a yummy breakfast.

Even dinner occasionally:)

So here's how you make them.

You will need:

6 eggs

1 cup milk

1 cup flour

1/2 t. salt

5 T. butterMelt the butter in a glass pan or really any pan. About the size of a 9x13. Just stick it right in the oven while you are waiting for it to preheat to 450 degress F.  Whip the other ingredients together.  It is better to do this by hand because you want it to be lumpy! As soon as the butter is melted pour the mixture in and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the mountains form and are slightly golden brown.

Serve immediately with syrup, powdered sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top, and of course any desired fruit toppings.

Enjoy!

Broiled grapefruit with a side of whipped cream.

I found this amazing recipe for broiled grapefruit HERE.

You simply cut a grapefruit in half and loosen up all the little pieces of grapefruit with a knife.

Place them in a baking dish and drizzle with honey and sprinkle with cinnamon. Top it off with some sliced bananas and strawberries, (or really any fruit) and broil for 4-6 minutes.

For the finishing touch throw a dallop of whipped cream on the top or on the side. Because who doesn't love a little cream with their fruit!

Enjoy!
