Buffalo Cauliflower Bites are one spicy (and secretly healthy) appetizer, perfect for game day!
Football season is officially underway, which means tailgating parties! However, most spreads at football parties are not very diet friendly! Bring a slimmed down appetizer to your next event to keep your diet on track! This is a super tasty, crowd pleasing appetizer that you can fill up on without the added guilt!
Your traditional buffalo chicken wings weigh in at around 430 calories and 29 grams of fat per 1 cup serving. These are a measly 150 calories and 6 grams of fat per 1 cup serving! Plus, they are fiber filled and antioxidant rich! For a vegan version sub Earth’s Balance for the butter!
Pasta Salad On A Stick With Greek Dressing, putting a spin on your classic pasta salad and making it picnic perfect!
Serve these alongside the most delicious Greek dressing for your Labor Day cookout! It’s a fun finger food that is family friendly, kids love eating food off of skewers! I stacked cherry tomatoes, rigatoni pasta, fresh basil leaves, chunky cut cucumbers, black olives and avocado, but the options are limitless! If you have cheese lovers in the family add mini mozzarella balls for a caprese style salad!
This has been our latest obsession…a Chocolate Banana Protein Smoothie Jar! Whether it’s for breakfast or dessert, this smoothie jar hits the spot!
I’ve been trying to amp up my protein intake and finally found a protein powder I like, Aloha’s Chocolate Protein Powder! It’s organic, plant-based and does not include soy or tons of other additives. Pair with their Daily Good Greens for a superfood, super delicious start to your day! (note: this is not a sponsored post, I just love this product!) Add a dollop of nut butter for extra protein and healthy fat and top with your favorite fruit and granola!
If you don’t have chocolate protein powder just add a little cacao/cocoa powder for the decadent chocolate flavor! Other excellent add-ins are hemp seeds, chia seeds, spinach or maca powder! For a drinkable smoothie add 1 cup of liquid!
