Need a snack?? Try some Grape-Nuts & Almond Milk!

If you are looking for a quick and easy snack, try some Grape Nuts and Almond Milk!
You can put the Grape-Nuts in a bag, or tupperware container (same with the almond milk), and mix on the go. Or you can have it at home or work. If you don't want to mix it with milk, you can use yogurt instead. You can eat it warm or cold.
You can eat this for breakfast, lunch or a snack.
Really, the possibilities are endless.
The greatest part, not only do you feel full, but it keeps you full for hours. Perfect!

Grape-Nuts have 7g of fiber, 6g protein, 1g fat, 5g sugar, 48g total carbohydrates and 230mg potassium.
Talk about some good stuff!

Blueberry, Spinach & Protein Shake Smoothie (Don't knock it, until you try it!)

My friend came up with this recipe. I'm not sure what possessed her to do this, but it's pretty dang good! Don't knock it until you try it!
This is a great recovery run protein shake, quick breakfast or lunch... or even a snack!

What you will need:
8 oz of Milk and/or Water (I use half of each)
1/2-3/4 Cup of fresh or frozen Blueberries
1/2 Cup of fresh or frozen spinach (You can buy a bag and throw it in the freezer)
1/4- 1/2 Cup of Ice
1 Scoop of Vanilla Protein Powder

How to make it:
I add the Milk and/or Water, Spinach, Blueberries, Ice and Protein Powder. Today, I added 1/2 a banana (Nanette, just ignore this part) . If you wanted, you could add any other fruit you would like.
Blend (for a good min or two) and serve.

Enjoy!

Baked Oatmeal

This was so YUMMY! I am a huge oatmeal fan, so having the opportunity to make this was a real treat. I put milk and a little brown sugar, for my son. I had mine with Wallaby Organic low fat vanilla yogurt and blueberries! I've never had yogurt on oatmeal before, it was great.

This recipe was fun to make, it smelled heavenly! And the family enjoyed! It took closer to 55 min to bake for me, but I think I may have had a smaller dish, making it a bit more dense! Click HERE for the recipe!

Enjoy!
