The Perfect Healthy Snack (It is Cool, Crunchy, Creamy and Sweet!)

When it comes to healthy snacks, I would have to say that this is one of my favorite snack. It is a great combination between energy, protein and deliciousness! It is easy to make and even easier to eat.

The combinations are truly endless with this snack. I personally love shopping at Trader Joe’s for all of my food and I especially love their granola section. There are so many amazing oppositions and they all go well with what I am about to share. If you don’t believe me you are just going to have to see for yourself.

You will need:

1/2 Cup Plain Greek Yogurt.
1/2 Cup Granola.
1 Scoop of Shaklee 180 Strawberry Smoothie Protein.
Fresh fruit, if desired.

First things first. Pour your yogurt into a bowl.

Measure out one scoop of your Shaklee 180 protein. Pour the protein into your bowl. Then measure out a half cup of the granola of your choice. (I used the Mixed Berries)
Next you just need to pour the granola into the bowl.
Once you have everything in the bowl, give it a good mix up and… …you are complete! Just add some Energy Tea (or Pomegranate Lemonade) and you are set for a perfect afternoon snack.

Now do you believe me? Doesn’t that look like a delicious treat? It has a little bit of everything in it. It is cool, crunchy, creamy and sweet. What more can you ask for in a healthy snack?

Pumpkin Spice Smoothee Recipe

There are so many reason why I love fall… and most of the revolve around all of the great food.

Even with a little chill in the air, I still love having my morning smoothie. There is nothing like a healthy and nutritious breakfast to start off the morning. It not only gets my body up and moving but it also gives me energy to start my day. I have many favorite fall recipes and this Pumpkin Spice Smoothie is one of my favorites. I got it directly from Shaklee’s website and it is simply delicious.

You will need:

2 Scoops Shaklee 180 Vanilla Smoothee Mix
8 Oz Milk
2 Tbsp Canned Pumpkin
½ Tsp Pumpkin Spice
Dash of Vanilla Extract
Dash of Cinnamon
4 – 6 ice cubes

This recipe is seriously like fall is a cup, you are defiantly going to want to try this.

Now that I have shared one of my fall “must have” recipes with you, now it is your turn. Do you have any fall favorites that you would like to share with me?

Chocolate Mocha Latte Smoothie

When it comes to me and my smoothies, there is nothing I would rather have in the morning! I probably have over 50 recipes up in my head that I need to write down to share with all of you. They are so filling and refreshing.

Today I am sharing a recipe that I actually got from Shaklee itself. It is so good and I know that you are going to love it. Don’t get me wrong I still love my Chocolate Frape Smoothie. But this is a great alternative if you don’t have coffee cubes on hand.

You will need:

1 scoop Shaklee 180™ Café Latte Smoothee Mix
1 scoop Shaklee 180™ Chocolate Smoothee Mix
8 oz non fat milk (low-fat soy milk can also be used)
1/4 tsp instant coffee
Ice (as needed)

Combine all ingredients in blender. Blend until creamy.

I just wanted to share with all of you a little piece of reality! This is what it looks like behind the senses of most of my blog posts. This is breakfast time at the Heasley house!

This is what my picture looks like for all of you, hehe!

Do you ever have smoothies for breakfast?

Banana Almond Smoothie

I have been on the Shaklee 180 weight management program for 3 weeks now and I can’t even begin to explain how good I feel every time I drink my daily energizing smoothie. I love all 4 of the rich creamy and delicious flavor. When I have time in the morning I will blend up my smoothies with some fruits and/or vegetables for more nutrition and to change it up from day to day.

One of my favorite fruits to add to my smoothies would have to be bananas. I love them fresh or frozen and it blends well with so many flavors. Today I used the the Vanilla Energizing Smoothie although I love bananas with the Chocolate and Strawberry Energizing Smoothee as well.

You will need:

1 Cup Milk

1/2 Banana

1 Teaspoon Slivered Almonds (Blend in the blender first before adding any ingredients to get them finally chopped)

1 Scoop of Shaklee Physique Natural Banana (This is an amazing for muscle recovery after you work out)
1 Scoop of Shaklee 180 Energizing Vanilla Smoothee mix.

Ice (Blend until creamy)

I would love to know that you like to put into your smoothies. I am always looking to try out new smoothies and new ingredients, are there any you think I just have to try?

Thank you all for reading and for following along.
