Strawberry Shakeology Granola Parfait

Parfait? I'm not totally sure if what I made is that -- BUT you could add some yogurt & whatdayaknow--- its a parfaiiiittttt.

But its really more of a chocolate sauce... oh well! Check it out =)

You Need:

• Nature Valley Granola Bars OR any granola of your choice
• Sliced Strawberries 
• Coconut oil/butter
• All natural peanut butter
• Chocolate Shakeology

Directions for the Chocolate Shakeology sauce:

1. Put 1 (or 2 if you are making it for two people) TBSP of coconut oil in the pan on low heat
2. Add 2tbsp of peanut butter and slowly stir
3. When it looks like the consistency below -- add the Shakeology without heat ( From the FAQS: Too much heat (above 115 degrees Fahrenheit) can cause the nutrients in Shakeology to become denatured.) 
4. Pour sauce over granola and strawberries

BON APPETITE! It's yummy. You're welcome! 

Protein Banana Bread (Chocolate Chips Optional)

Surprisingly I'm not a HUGE banana fan-- but that's just by themselves. I blame it on banana overdosing for about 10 years of my life. IF I have a banana its usually in Shakeology ;-)

But since I had several bananas starting to go brown, I figured now is a good time to put them to use. I'm sick of throwing food away!

So here goes nothin'

What you will Need:

• 1/2 cup of protein powder
• 1 1/2 cups of old fashioned oats
• 1tsp of baking soda
• 1tsp of baking powder
• 1/4 tsp of salt
• 1 banana
• 1/2 cup of coconut oil/butter (melted)
• 1/2 cup of egg whites
• 1/4 cup of milk
• about 12 packets or 1/4 cup of Stevia 

Directions:

1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees
2. Coat bread pan 
3. Combine all ingredients in a blender (except the chocolate chips if you put them on)
4. blend until smooth
5. Pour into bread pan 
6. Bake for 35-40 minutes

Bon Appetite!
