Shakeology with a Twist!

Today I tried a new chocolate shakeology recipe and added a bit of a twist.  It was surprisingly refreshing and perfect for me for summer!  

1 1/2 cups filtered water

1 cup coconut milk

1 1/2 cups chopped celery

3/4 cups frozen pineapple

1 scoop of chocolate Shakeology

Blend really well - enjoy!  It makes a lot, so you could split it into two snacks, mid-morning and afternoon!

PB2 Shakeology Balls

Ingredients:

1 cup PB2 or Chocolate PB2 powdered peanut butter

1/2 cup natural peanut butter

1 cup quick oats

1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce

1 scoop chocolate Shakeology

Stevia, Truvia, or agave to taste

Directions:

In a large mixing bowl, throw in the peanut butters, oats, applesauce, Shakeology, and sweetener.  Mix together.  The consistency will be pretty sticky and gooey.

Wet your hands in water, then roll the mixture into Ping-pong sized balls.  

Place on waxed paper or a plastic plate.  Put in the freezer until firm, or enjoy right away if you can't resist!

Dairy Free Chocolate Ice Cream

This is from The Londoner, a blog that I will be reading for a while.  Because she wrote this post. 

Dairy Free Chocolate Ice Cream

Ingredients and Directions:

Chop up a bunch of bananas, pile them on a plate and put them in the freezer for 5 hours or overnight if possible.

When they are frozen, put them in the blender or food processor and blend until it is a smooth mush.

Add 2-3 heaped teaspoons of cocoa powder (or chocolate shakeology or tropical shakeology if you want a tropical fruity ice cream) and a swirl of pure maple syrup or make it peppermint flavored with a drop of doTERRA Peppermint oil....or orange...Oh, the possibilities are endless!

If you like it soft, just scoop it into a bowl and enjoy. 

Or stick it in tupperware and put it in the freezer for a couple of hours. 

I think I have found a new recipe for when I am watching The Biggest Loser.

Tropicolate or Chopical Smoothie

Today I threw caution to the wind and mixed half Tropical Strawberry Shakeology and half Chocolate.  Let's just say it is like eating chocolate in Hawaii.  Could there be anything better?

1 1/2 cups filtered water

1 cup So Delicious Coconut Milk

1 cup frozen mixed fruit (pineapple, peaches, strawberries, grapes)

1/2 scoop Chocolate Shakeology

1/2 scoop Tropical Strawberry Shakeology

Blend well and grab two cups! 

Chocolate Fondue

Today I had an epiphany.  What if I combined pineapple and peaches...with chocolate Shakeology?

So I tried it.  Ya know how fondue is so fabulous when you dip pineapple into chocolate?  Yeah, it's like that.  Only frothy and ice and like a shake.  In other words - BINGO.  Doing that again for sure!

1 1/2 cups filtered water

1 cup coconut milk (I used silk this time)

1 scoop Chocolate Shakeology

1 cup of frozen peaches and pineapple

Blend well and enjoy!
