Better Shakeology Protein Balls recipe

I was really happy with my Shakeology Protien Ball recipe that I recently posted. But I still found the need to tweak it. I tried adding crushed almonds, or unsweetened coconut flakes…all good stuff. And folks have been asking if using Unsweetened Almond milk would be ok. And that got me thinking about how I use to […]

Shakeology protein balls

I think I finally found the perfect homemade protein bar mix. In my past attempts I tried to make non-baked Shakeology Protein Bars, but they were always too goey and messy. So I removed the Almond milk from the mix and just used a little bit of water to help mix the ingredients. Made my first batch last night and […]

Recipe: Avocado Tuna Salad (from INSANITY: THE ASYLUM™)

Shakeology Mocha Ricotta Dessert

I suffer from late night sweet tooth attacks. I found an excellent desert recipe that has allowed me to go have that late night guilt free snack.  I have been able to modify the recipe to use Shakeology.  The normal recipes calls for the following: 1/2 cup Ricotta cheese (Low moisture part skim) 1/2 tsp […]

Homemade Protein Bars

Talking with Chris Moon and we come to find we are putting down a healthy amount of protein bars during the course of a week, and it’s starting to get expensive. Now mind you, I still buy the new and improved P90x Bars (Did you know they updated these things? They really do taste great […]
