Creamy Peanut Butter Dip

I try to balance out my treat intake by eating healthy snacks during the day, but finding healthy and yummy snacks that I don't get bored with is a challenge.  I had this recipe on the back burner for a while but didn't get around to trying it for a few weeks after I bought the yogurt.  I didn't have too high of expectations for it so I was taken by surprise by how much I liked this!  Brynlee loved this as well so I am sure we'll be making this quite a bit.  It's so yummy and packed with protein so it will keep you fueled for a while.  If you don't like peanut butter or have allergies, just omit it and you'll  still have a delicious vanilla yogurt fruit dip.

*Makes four 2 TBSP servings

Ingredients:

1 5.3 oz container of Oikos Non-Fat Greek Vanilla Yogurt
2 TBSP Peanut Butter
1/2 TBSP Honey
1/8 tsp cinnamon


Directions:

Mix ingredients together.  Serve with apples, bananas, or pears.  Place any leftover in the fridge in an airtight container.  

P.S.  The yogurt is awesome as a healthy snack  by itself too!  If you haven't tried out Greek yogurt yet you need to!  Even                     my 4 year old prefers it over regular yogurt and it is a lot healthier for you.  My favorite brands are Oikos and Chobani.

Bakery style Strawberry Muffins

New recipe! Can you even believe it?! Kirsti and I decided we need to get back in the habit of sharing our favorite recipes by sharing at least one a month so here you go:   I’m starting off with these scrumptious strawberry muffins. Extra large and fluffy, these muffins are bursting with strawberry bits and topped with the most delicious strawberry glaze. If you end up with extra glaze, go ahead and drizzle some extra.  No judgement here :)   Even if you already love the previous strawberry muffins on our blog, you need to try these- they are the only ones I'll be making from here on out.  They're that good!

Asian Chicken Lettuce Wraps

I am always looking for fast, easy and nutritious meals for my busy weeknight meals.  These wraps have become one of our family favorites.  We serve these with a side of wontons or potstickers to complete the meal. The filling can be made ahead of time and reheated if your day is extra busy. Bibb lettuce is our favorite, but feel free to use iceberg or even romaine for this dish. I hope you enjoy these as much as we do!

Healthier Chocolate Banana Muffins

 I know, I know.  We already have like 5 banana muffins posted on this blog.  I have put off posting this recipe because of that fact, but here's the thing.  While those muffins are all delicious and great in their own way, when I have ripe bananas you know I'm either making these muffins or banana bread.  More often, these muffins because they are perfect for a grab and go snack or breakfast.  My family LOVES these muffins! They have such a deep chocolate flavor and are so moist.  What my family doesn't think about, but I love, are that these muffins are healthier than your average muffin.  They are made with whole wheat flour, coconut oil, greek yogurt for extra protein, and have less sugar that most other muffins.  These are best warm (they can be reheated in the microwave for 10 seconds) and those bites with melted chocolate chips are the absolute best!
