Vanilla Cold Brew Overnight Oats


Quick and easy breakfasts are a major staple in my house, always paired with a small cup of HOT coffee. Iced coffee and cold brew aren’t usually my thing, but these vanilla cold brew overnight oats DEFINITELY are!

I used Wandering Bear Cold Brew coffee and would highly recommend it if you’re into coffee! The flavor it added to these oats was absolutely perfect.

Frozen Chocolate Protein Cookies


Fridge and pantry clean-outs always have me creating new recipes and combinations, and these little ‘cookies’ are no exception!

They’re really high in protein and fiber, and you can sprinkle any garnish on top that you like… powdered sugar, shredded coconut, chocolate chips, etc. Or you don’t have to add anything if that’s your style!

The collagen peptides are completely optional as well. Adding them won’t change the taste or texture of the cookies, but it will add some extra protein. Collagen is the most abundant protein in our bodies, and taking it is great for hair, skin, nails, joints, and even your gut. I use THESE ones!
