    Kallo blueberry & vanilla rice cakes topped with almond butter and halved blueberries. Yum! Tastes indulgent but really not so bad.

    Sounds delicious and filling..! Good pre-workout snack..!!

    Cottage cheese with protein powder and dark chocolate chips. Sunflower seeds (roasted unsalted) and dark chocolate. Banana blended with vanilla protein powder (faux ice cream) with what ever mix ins I fancy that day.

    I like the protein ice cream idea - I've never tried that before :smiley:

    I love Stoneyfield organic frozen yogurt Chocolate or vanilla with a spoonful of honey (it gets hard and chewy, so good w the creamy yogurt) and a spoonful of salted roasted peanuts.
    1/2 Cup is only 100 calories

    My favorite "junk food" is actually a veggie delite sub with the hot dressing on it. o:) Subway is probably not the highest quality place to eat, but man... I love that sandwich. Especially now that they added avocado to the toppings list. Next time I might even get one with double avocado!

    I'm not a fan of chocolate, which seems to be everyone's go-to. But I enjoy those banana paleo-pancake things that were shared all over facebook a while back. ((Basically just egg and banana)). They're sweet, simple and a nice treat when we have left over eggs in the house(we don't buy them very often and tend to waste quite a few of them).

    Ooo. Yes - I recall those. Thanks for the idea.. I'll have to give them a go. :smile:

    I have these for breakfast soo often I love love love them!

    Chocoloate peanut butter fat bombs. I use about 1 c melted coconut oil, 1/2c peanut butter, 3 Tbs cocoa, 12-24 drops of stevia and some salt. I fill a couple of ice trays with it, and then try not to have more than one or two a night.

    Sure thing!

    Ingredients:
    - 1 scoop of chocolate protein (I use Magnum Chocolate Love)
    - 1/4tsp baking powder
    - 1/2tbsp Cocoa
    - 1/2tbsp milk chocolate chips
    - 1/2tsp vanilla extract
    - 1tsp stevia powder or 6 drops of liquid stevia
    - 1/4c cold water

    Method:
    - In a microwave safe dish, blend all dry ingredients together
    - Add stevia, vanilla and water - mix into a batter
    - Microwave batter for 30 seconds
    - Let the cake settle in the microwave for a few seconds
    - Microwave an additional 6 seconds
    - Remove from microwave and add a dash of cinnamon, a few sprinkles or a bit of whippin' cream for a delightful treat!

    I sometimes make variations that include different extracts instead of vanilla (ie: lemon, banana, rum, maple etc) and different toppings (reduced carb cherry pie filling, shredded coconut, banana chips etc) too. It's a fantastic way to end an evening or a nice meal. I've also been known to have it for lunch a time or two ... :wink:

    I hope you enjoy the recipe..!

    Holy smokes - these sound amazing..! I'm on reduced fat right now .. But I'm tucking this little recipe away for when I'm ready to amp up my fat..!
