HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY! I hope your day was full of love (and chocolate... lots of chocolate). I'm super excited to be partnering with the Ronald McDonald House in Kansas City to help raise funds for families in our community. I believe in the importance of keeping families connected, making them feel loved, & providing support during times of need. I have been involved with the Ronald McDonald House for years & feel truly passionate about their mission. This February, I’m exc

It's that time of the year. Time to bring out the pumpkin spice flavored EVERYTHING. I swear something about September, October, and November just makes me crave this classic fall flavor! Be prepared for an overload of pumpkin recipes these next few months. These Healthy Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies are the first of many more to come! I always love chocolate chip cookies, but during the fall season they are even BETTER with a burst of pumpkin spice flavor thrown into the mi

I definitely consider myself a protein shake enthusiast. I also consider myself a cake batter enthusiast. Literally, give me ANYTHING cake batter flavored and I will be guaranteed to love it. Cake batter ice cream, cake batter cookies, cake batter itself - I have even tried cake batter flavored CHEWING GUM before. It may sound gross, but it was surprisingly pretty tasty. There's just something about the sweet, vanilla flavor that I find so delicious! The good news is, it is S

Yes, you did read the title right. HEALTHY DONUTS! This has been a heavily requested recipe - and not surprising, I mean who DOESN'T love donuts?! I made a Sweet Cinnamon Cake Protein Donut recipe awhile back and it was super popular, so I figured I would make a frosted chocolate version. Chocolate glazed donuts are my absolute favorite, but they can run around 340 calories and have 17 grams of sugar each. CLICK HERE TO VIEW: Sweet Cinnamon Cake Protein Donuts These healthy c

EASY, HEALTHY, NO BAKE Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Bars recipe. So delicious and simple to make! Low in sugar, dairy free, full of healt

My chocolate loving sweet tooth self is DYING. I repeat: DY-ING over this recipe. 1. Because it's chocolate and 2. Because they are only 104 calories each. EACH. They also taste delicious warmed up in the microwave - as a little side note. I don't know if I have ever met someone who doesn't love brownies... I mean, what's NOT to love? My mom absolutely LOVES a warm brownie and ice cream, so I was super excited when she gave the stamp of approval on these sweet treats. To get

This morning's breakfast brought to you by: SWEET POTATOES. That's right. You might not guess it just by looking at this stack of chocolatey goodness, but they have a SECRET INGREDIENT. I went to my grocery store the other day and they had the BIGGEST sweet potatoes I had ever seen. I picked up a few only to get home and realize I bought way more than I could eat by themselves! I am a huge fan of protein pancakes, so I decided to get a little creative with my typical short st

Okay so I know I say this about almost every recipe but I MEAN IT this time: this may be my favorite recipe yet! I am a huge cheesecake lover. Like, huge. On my 21st birthday all I wanted was a slice of the Oreo Dream Extreme Cheesecake from The Cheesecake Factory (which I did get and did eat every last bite of - a cheat day that was well worth it). So since I have ALWAYS loved cheesecake (I mean, who doesn't), I wanted to try to create a healthy version using greek yogurt as

Happy ALMOST Fourth of July! The Fourth is always one of my favorite holidays to make festive and fun red, white, and blue foods. Especially because during the summer my favorite red and blue fruits are so in season: strawberries and blueberries. So, I wanted to share this quick, easy recipe for these Greek Yogurt Protein Pops to celebrate the Fourth of July! I have been so obsessed with greek yogurt lately. It is PACKED with protein and contains probiotic cultures to help im
