Cookie dough balls

I saw this picture of what looked like cookie dough on my friends facebook page - she said she made it with Shakeology!  It absolutely looked amazing in the bowl, just like cookie dough.  And then she rolled it into balls for a quick snack - or in my kids case, BREAKFAST 😊

I modified her recipe a little bit and according to my husband I need to modify it a little bit more.  I thought they were good and the kids scarfed them down.  I guess if you don't like coconut at all, then you need to modify it as well - I'll tell you how I intend to but I can't promise anything at this point!



Making these with Shakeology allows you to get 70+ amazing ingredients including superfoods, vitamins, protein, pre/probiotics, adaptogens, digestive enzymes....you know all that good for you stuff that most of us don't get on a daily basis and probably don't even know what it all is!  The way Shakeology is made though, the nutrients get delivered to you as a whole food (dried) and without any fillers or added sugars.  It can help you lose weight, maintain healthy cholesterol levels, support healthy blood sugar levels, control cravings, support regularity 😉, and improve your energy.


Ok, but back to the recipe - gosh who wouldn't want cookie dough for breakfast right?

2 servings of vanilla Shakeology (2/3 cup total)
2 scoops of Orgain Creamy Chocolate Fudge Organic Protein powder (46g total)
1/4 cup unsweetened shredded coconut flakes
1/4 cup old fashioned oats
1 cup creamy natural peanut butter (I use Skippy)
1/2 cup honey
flaxseed
chia seeds
1/2 cups chocolate chips (mini if you have them, I did not)

Mix all the dry ingredients together.  Then add in honey and peanut butter.  Let chill in the fridge for at least 20 minutes.  Roll into balls

Super simple and so yummy!

Now my modification would be to eliminate the coconut flakes and just use the oats for my husband, so 1/2 cup of oats and no coconut.  And if you don't want to make the dough a little chocolatey, just use 3 servings of the vanilla Shakeology.

If you don't have Shakeology and want to try it, let me know and we can talk about samples!

Some is better than none

So sometimes life happens and we get busy and things fall to the backburner. I haven't written in 11 days!! Yikes - we have a lot to catch up on! Since last time we have been out of town and played at a really cool playground that was developed for all kids - so kids with disabilities could have the same fun as a child without a disability. It was amazing and really struck my heart since I occasionally work with kids with disabilities. I only took one real picture unfortunately, the rest were on snap chat (terra227). It also gave me the thought that they need an adult sized playground. My SIL and I had fun playing but were too big for a lot of it!  Have you ever seen an adult playground, like with old school playground equipment meant for adults?? Someone should make one! I have also started a new program!! I am so excited and am loving this program. I have done it for 5 days so far and am already seeing amazing results!! It is an MMA style workout but they throw in strength...

Homemade Spaghetti Sauce

As we sit on the plane in Florida getting ready to take off to head home, I'm already beginning to think about the coming weeks. I'm so excited to start the new Core de Force and dive into the meal plan for this program. I haven't gotten my book yet but I've heard this plan is different so I'm super excited!! I've also been reading a little bit about carb cycling. As I figure that out I'll keep you all updated too! I think it sounds great but I need to keep researching it for me and my fam. I feel like carbs are my biggest struggle so if I can find a plan where I can still eat them and not have my stomach blow up that would be amazing!!  For now I'm going to stick to the specific plan for Core de Force though. I wanted to share with you our homemade spaghetti sauce today. It's so easy to make and so good. The best part though is that you can freeze it for another time! Plus it's sugar free!! Ingredients 1½ pounds ground beef/turkey ...
