Peanut Butter Protein Blobs

Finding snacks that are healthy isn’t easy and getting kids to eat greens is that much harder! These peanut butter blobs are packed with protein, organic greens and are definitely a must try! My kids not only loved them but gobbled them up so fast that I had to make more!

The recipe is so simple that anyone can make them!

You will need:

1 C Organic Peanut Butter

1/4 C Organic Coconut Oil

1/4 C Organic Raw Honey

3 Scoops of Life Shake

2 Scoops of Organic Greens Booster

5 C Rice Crispy Cereal

In a sauce pan on medium heat combined the peanut butter, coconut oil, honey, life shake and greens. Stir until cream then remove from heat.

In a large bowl add the all 5 cups of the rice crispys and pour peanut butter mixture on top of the cereal. Mix with a rubble/silicone spatula until the cereal is evenly coated.

Use a cookie Scoop to place blobs on wax coated cookie tray. chill until the coconut oil re-hardens then enjoy!

I would love to know how you get your kids to eat more greens and what type of healthy snacks you guys like to munch on?

Thanks for reading and for following along!

Cranberry Muffins–A Must Try!

If there is one thing that you just couldn’t go without during the Christmas season, what would it be? Ok, let me narrow that down a bit; If there is on type of treat that you just could not go without, what would it be? I know what mine would be. I wait all year for cranberries to be in season and then I buy a bunch and freeze them for the rest of the year. Who am I kidding? They never make it more than a few weeks in my house. This is a recipe that we have been using for years. It is simple but delicious!

Here is a short video showing you just how I made these delicious cranberry muffins.

You will need:
1 ¾ Cups All-Purpose Flour
½ Cup Sugar
2 ½ Teaspoons Baking Powder
¾ Teaspoon Salt
1 Beaten Egg
¾ Cup Milk
⅓ Cup Cooking Oil
1 Cup Coarsely Chopped Cranberries

I cut the cranberries into fourths and they turn our perfect.

In a large mixing bowl stir together the dry ingredients. Make a well in the center. Combine egg, milk and oil. Add egg mixture all at once to the flour mixture. Stir just until moistened; batter should be lumpy. Fold in cranberries.

Grease Muffin cups or line with paper baking cups: fill 2/3 full. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 20 minutes or until golden. Remove from pans; serve warm. Makes around 12 muffins.

It is also a great gift to give a loved one and let them know that you are thinking about them.

This is such a great thing to share at Christmas parties that I just can’t keep it all to myself. I will be linking up at:
