Protein Cookie Crumble

Protein Cookie Crumble

 

So I see many people on their LBC plan (including my own clients) eating either cottage cheese, Greek yogurt and peanut butter as their last meal of the day. My last meal is typically:

 

Cottage Cheese (I whip it smooth in bullet and add Stevia)

Peanut Butter

½ scoop Protein Powder

 

I use to add this half of scoop into my ‘Peanut Butter Ice Cream’ or sometimes I would even make a small shake with it.  But, one of my favorite things to do with it, is make a crunchy cookie with it.

Football Foodies- The 7 Layer Dip

Oh how I love football season! There's nothing like sitting in front of the TV in my Broncos jersey eating snacks while watching the game. If i were to consume what most of Americans eat during a game, I would need to have another wardrobe 4 sizes larger just for football season.

I try to stick to a veggie tray, baked nachos, shish-ka-bobs and chicken skewers when planning football parties.  This past weekend I made one of my favorite dips. Here's the recipe.

Low-Fat Pumpkin Pie

My husband loves pumpkin pie. In fact, I know he likes to have one pie all to himself at Thanksgiving. :lol: I have been making this pumpkin pie for a couple of years now, and it never gets old. This recipe is not only perfect for re-feeds, its also a great alternative to the traditional pumpkin pie because it tastes like the 'real' thing (in my husbands words). When used with my fat-free pie crust, you have a slice for around 130 calories versus 320 calories (give or take).
Not that there is much to show in the video, I still decided to video it. I had a little helper this time ;)read more 9 comments
