Peanut Butter Protein Balls

I don’t know about all of you, but I always feel like I am on the go. With a schedule like mine, I get to eat in between clients and at odd hours of the day. I usually live strictly by the book, my calendar that is. If i didn’t pencil it in, then I don’t have time for it.

These peanut butter protein balls are just the thing for me, they are quick, easy & delicious. It is easy for me to pop them in my mouth and just enough to fill my belly with all the extra protein.

All you need is:

1/4 cup of honey or (2T honey and 2T milk)

1/4 cup Peanut Butter

1/4 cup Energizing Soy Protein

1/2 cup Oat Meal

1/4 cup Rice Crispys

Mix the peanut butter and honey together in a pot on medium heat until melted. Add remaining dry products into the pot and stir until blended. Remove from heat and use a cookie scoop to scoop onto a plate or tray.

This is also a perfect snack for kids. I taste so good that they won’t even know that it is good for them.

Since I work from home I can easily have a snack without eating too much. I love knowing that I am eating something that is good for me.

Have you ever made protein balls?

How To Cut Up Pineapple Without the Mess!

I believe that Pineapple is one of God’s greatest sweets. I just love the taste of it’s delicious juice. This week I was shopping at the grocery store only to find that pineapple was on sale for $0.99. I love pineapple so naturally I couldn’t pass it up! If you know my family you know that I can’t just buy one pineapple so I bought them all lol!

Here is a short video showing you just how I cut up all of these pineapples! I hope you enjoy!

There are a couple of things that I have made using these pineapples.

First I cut the top off the pineapple.

Next I use our handy dandy pineapple cutter

Then you pull the pineapple out!

I then put a Stainless Steal cooling racks on a jelly role pan.

The greatest invention, the pineapple cutter!

Cut one side of the pineapple!

Place the pineapple on the cooling rack.

Pre-heat your oven to the lowest temperature it goes to, mine goes all the way down to 170. Also I put a wooden spoon in the door to keep the over propped open while dehydrating.

It will take several hours to dehydrate the the pineapple and some might finish before the others, just keep checking them.

I also cut up some of the other pineapples into smaller pieces so I could freeze.

I put the pineapple in a freezer container and put it in the freezer.

Now that you know what I like to do with my pineapples, I would love to know what you do with yours?

Do you have a favorite recipe you would like to share or a post that you have. I would love to see what it is a give it a try myself.
