Matcha Chia Pudding

Matcha Chia Pudding
This matcha chia pudding is hands down my favorite chia pudding I’ve made to date. The vanilla protein powder gives just enough sweetness, and with the fruit on top, it’s the right amount of sweetness for me. FlavCity Protein Smoothie I’ve tried so many protein powders over the years, but they all go through me so quickly, I may as well drink them while sitting...

Scones are one of my favorite things to make.  These pistachio scones with mint chocolate drizzle are absolutely delicious.  No serious baking skills required! I adapted a recipe from Sweet Simple Masala.  Her recipe called for 5 tablespoons of butter, and a 1.25 cups of heavy cream.  Did you know that 1.25 cups of heavy cream is 57 points?  By substituting unsweetened almond milk for...

Sourdough Blueberry Scones

Sourdough Blueberry Scones
These sourdough blueberry scones are light, airy, not overly sweet and the perfect breakfast or snack treat. There is sourdough starter in this recipe.  There are SO MANY sourdough starter recipes out there, and tips, tricks, etc.  My sourdough starter is all unbleached all-purpose flour.  Some starters add rye flour, whole wheat flour, but I went with straight all-purpose.

Cinnamon Crumb Cake
Have you ever had a slice of Panera’s cinnamon crumb cake?! So good! But a slice of that is 24 points, and basically a whole day of points for me. When I think back to the way I used to eat, it was no wonder why I got so big.  I would eat a big banana muffin on the train to work.  At around 10:30...
