Peach Pie Yogourt Bowl

Peach Pie Yogourt Bowl

I want to state my case here for frozen fruit. When fruit isn’t in season, I would seriously rather eat thawed fruit than the out of season offering available. Frozen fruit is just as nutritious as fresh and honestly can taste better out of season. This simple yogourt bowl channels peach pie, but stays healthy.

Serves 1

🥄 1 c sliced peaches
🥄 ⁣1 c plain Greek yogourt or Skyr
🥄 2 tbsp chopped nuts (pecans or walnuts are my favourite)
🥄 ⁣A few drops of vanilla flavoured stevia

Mix through and enjoy!

Chocolate Crème Cup

by

My mom recently asked me if I could do a healthy spin on a family favourite dessert.  Now, to be clear, this does not taste like her amazing dessert.  BUT it does taste super chocolatey, and its healthy enough to eat every day completely guilt free.  So, I’ll take it.  But I’ll still be looking forward to the next time my mom makes the original!

Serves 1

🥄 ¼ cup quick oats
🥄 ⁣1 tbsp + 1 tbsp cocoa powder
🥄 1 egg white
🥄 ⁣½ c Skyr
🥄 5 – 10 drops chocolate flavoured stevia

Mix together the quick oats, 1 tbsp cocoa powder and the egg white.  Press the mixture into a large silicone muffin pan.  (I recommend spraying it first with non-stick spray.)  Bake the cup for about 15 – 20 minutes at 350F.   Remove from the oven.  After the cup has partially cooled, remove gently from the muffin pan, and allow to cool fully on a wire rack.

In a separate bowl, mix the Skyr, remaining cocoa powder and the chocolate stevia.

Spoon the Skyr into the chocolate cup, smooth out the top and enjoy!

Chocolate Yogourt

Chocolate Yogourt 

So, right now I’m working towards a fitness photo shoot.  That means stripping off some fat to let my myscle shine through.  I’m not doing anything extreme in the way that I eat, but I am being a bit more mindful.  But chocolate cravings are real.  And they need to be satisfied.  You have to use your imagination a little bit, but truly only a little to enjoy this.  It tastes way more like chocolate mousse than you would think.

Serves 1

🥄 1 c plain Skyr
🥄 ⁣1 tbsp cocoa powder
🥄 5 drops dark chocolate flavoured stevia
🥄 ⁣2 tbsp sugar free chocolate chips

Stir all of the ingredients together, except for the chocolate chips.  Once stirred through, add the chocolate chips and enjoy!
