No Bake Cookie Dough Balls

This recipe is not only tasty but it's also very simple! I hope you enjoy these as much as I did! 


Ingredients:
 1 scoop cellucor s'mores protein
 1/4 cup wheat flour
 1 tsp vanilla extract
 1 tsp stevia leaf drops
 1/2 cup white chocolate Justin's almond butter with a little bit of trader Joe's cookies and cream butter mixed in
 1 tsp cinnamon
 1/4 cup white chocolate chips

Directions: 
Mix all ingredients together except white chocolate chips. You may need to add a little bit (add in very small amounts!) of water as needed as you work the dough because it can be dry. Last add the white chocolate chips and work them in the dough. Then pull out pieces of the dough to makes small balls, place on a cookie sheet and stick in the fridge for a bit. Makes 8 balls

Happy Holiday Baking Everyone!

Ashley's Go-To Green Drink

This is my favorite smoothie because it's easy, makes me feel full, gets my digestive system flowing, and tastes good! 


Ingredients: 
1/2 cup of water 
1/2 cup of fresh juiced orange juice
1 cup of romain lettuce  
2 cups of spinach 
1 granny smith apple (or pear)
1/2 banana 
1/2 lemon 
1 large handful of parsley 


Directions: 
wash all fruit and veggies
properly cut and core produce 
Place all ingredients in a blender

If you are a juicer, you can use this same recipe just take the banana out and double up on the produce!
