Fudgy Protein Mug Cake

Jul 19, 2019

This Fudgy Protein Mug Cake is a quick and easy, protein-packed, and guilt-free sweet treat. And, it’s single-serving so you won’t overinduldge.

If you’ve been around for awhile now, you know just how strongly I feel about the importance of real food. Real, whole foods should always trump packaged, processed food, in my opinion. For example, I don’t believe in replacing high quality meats and veggies with protein powders or bars. However, that doesn’t mean I don’t use these products to supplement my whole food, nutrient-rich diet. Sometimes a girl needs a little sweet treat. You feel me?

When I indulge in something sweet, I prefer using high-quality protein powder, instead of dense gluten-free or nut- based flours. I’ve noticed I tend to digest protein powder better, which might be true for you, too. Plus, it’s always helpful to consume an extra protein dose in my sweet treat.

Coconut Butter & Jelly Cup (single-serving, 4 ingredients, sugar-free, paleo, keto)

Jan 15, 2018

I saw someone eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich the other day and had the idea to recreate it as a healthy dessert! I used to live for PB&Js as a kid. Since I don’t eat peanut butter anymore (aflatoxin/mold), and the only nut butter I had in the house was coconut butter, this recipe was created. It didn’t disappoint! I bet this might be even more delicious if you used SunButter or a Sprouted Almond Butter, so please let me know if you do use any of those and how they turn out.

I tend to avoid multi-layer desserts, since they require extra steps and seem to take a bit longer (#lazy), but this one is maybe an extra 2 minutes and it’s so worth it! This is another single-serving recipe (for my/your lack of willpower), but feel free to multiply it to create a full batch.

Hope this recipe brings you a bit of nostalgia for your own childhood. Please let me know me if...

Single Serving Chocolate Chip Muffin (sugar-free, paleo, keto, SIBO-friendly)

Dec 12, 2017

I don’t know about you, but I have zero self-control when it comes to dessert. Sweet treats don’t last more than a day in my house, and even that is generous. It’s so serious that I even bought a $70 time locking container to put treats in (that I quickly returned, because $70?!?!). Every time I bake a batch of cookies or muffins, I immediately give most of them away to clients, friends, strangers on the street. Anything to get them out of my house, where I will likely inhale the whole batch within hours.

Why don’t I just stop making them, you ask? Because I love healthy treats and I don’t think life is meant to be lived without them. The only answer, then, is to create single-serving healthy treats that’ll leave me feeling satisfied without 11 other servings tempting me with their deliciousness. And, apparently, I’m not the only one. I asked my ...
