"Where Have You Been" - Rihanna

Today has been a w e s o m e.

Don't mind me. I'm just smiling ear to ear as I type.

Yesterday, I received this:



So [of course] today I HAD to test in out on the long run.

"Look Good, Run Faster" ----- I am SOLD!!

On the cooking/nutrition front:

I found Carisse on Instagram. Loved her receipes and they got my creative juices flowing. [I know, this is dangerous]

But after many trials I found MY perfect muffin.


AMAZING!!!!

Recipe:
[makes 6 LARGE muffins [125 calories in each large one] or 10 smaller-ish ones]

29oz canned pumpkin
2 scoops protein powder [the one I have is GF and approx 100 cal/scoop]
3 egg whites beaten
1/2T cinnamon
1/3 Cup Splenda

Mix it all up.
I sprinkle a few chopped pecans on top before baking.
Throw those babies in the oven for 40 minutes at 350*

When baked but not cool yet........I take a fork and drizzle a little natural peanut butter on top. It almost melts on top like butter.

Now the important part.

Just. add. the. pickle.

AwwwwwwwwwwwwtotheheckYa.

Happy. Friday!
