Shakeology Truffles
These are a staple in our house. In fact, my hubby just asked my why I haven't made it in awhile.
1/2 cup Coconut oil
1 TBSP raw honey
2 scoops Shakeology (I use chocolate)
Add ins are optional (pb2 powder, peanut butter, any kind of nut, vanilla, etc.)
I usually just put parchment paper on a plate and pour the mixture onto it.
For a quick fix, put it in the freezer. Or put it in the fridge.
Store in fridge or freezer till gone.

Organic, Vegan, Vegetarian, No Sugar Added COOKIES
I made these cookies tonight and my kids even ate them!!!
NO ADDED SUGAR!
Only the sugar that God put on this earth via fruit!
I'm learning that sugar spikes our insulin levels to make glucose. But, if we eat God's sugar (from fruit), our insulin levels don't spike because our bodies don't have to fight so hard to make glucose.
More on that in later posts....
HEALTHY COOKIE RECIPE!!
3 Mashed Bananas (I always put my ripe, uneaten bananas in the freezer for baking)
1/3 cup organic applesauce
2 cups organic oats (preferably instant versus rolled)
1/4 cup Almond Milk
1/2 - 1 cup raisins (or you can do healthy chocolate chips - I use Enjoy Life brand currently)
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp cinnamon
Mix together. I used a hand mixer
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and bake for 15-18 minutes. I suggest checking at 15 and add if needed.
Refrigerate and/or freeze.
