This morning I woke up with some WARM spiced apple cinnamon protein oats, and my Yogi Slim Life tea instead of a freezing cold smoothie because I was freezing haha. Anyways here is the recipe (I have posted a similar one before):
Steep spiced apple cinnamon tea in a little more that 1 cup boiling water (a large mug), add to pot on stove and boil , then add in 1/2 cup of oats to cook.
While cooking, cut and dice an apple to be microwaved for approximately 3 minutes to soften:)
Mix the rest of tea, 1 scoop of vanilla protein powder and almost 1/8c of ground flaxseed in a bowl.
Add oats, softened apples, more cinnamon, and a little agave on top and enjoy!
This lasted me a long time, all through my workout which consisted of 40 minutes random walk, run, jog, walk business til I was sweaty and tired. Then, a Nike Training Club app "core crunch" workout and stretching. And all through running errands until when I finally got home I felt like a smoothing and not your average smoothie!:
1 scoop vanilla protein powder (1 serving for mine is 2 scoops so one in my oats and one in this smoothie gave me a full serving:))
almond milk
About 1/8c of Hershey's unsweetened cocoa :)
Spoonful of organic peanut butter
1/2 banana
ice cubes
spinach
spoonful of chia seeds and flaxseed oil
yum yum yum
Next up, that homemade thing that goes well with movies...POPCORN! My lovely mother recently bought me a popcorn maker for Christmas and I finally had the chance to break it in last night! Large bags of kernels are so cheap it's unreal haha. My boyfriend. roommate and I decided to each make our own bowl and have a little flavoring contest (okay it was totally my idea but they got into it!). Here are the three we came up with, all had yogurt butter melted on them (better for you butter), in order from the last three pictures.
1. Lemon pepper seasoning and garlic salt
2. Garlic salt, onion powder and lots of dill!
3. cinnamon and sugar:)
Guess which one was whose....the lemon pepper was surprisingly very lemony and a favorite! But they were all yummy:) Try it! If you come up with a good idea let me know...I'll be making a lot of popcorn in the near future;) Great thing about popcorn is that its high in fiber and low in calories, great for a snack, and when it's homemade it is so much better for you! Those bags are yuckkkky.
On my Yogi teabag today: Goodness should become human nature, because it is real in nature.
