The Apple Pie Smoothie



                                                                         

Apple Pie... It's crisp, flaky crust paired with delicious warm apples and cinnamon.... :)

This smoothie mocks that delicious flavor.  However, you skip all the bad calories.  This is a healthy smoothie recipe for those who are watching their waistlines...  Of course, it doesn't lack in flavor.  

I made this yesterday for breakfast, but my kids finished it off!  They loved it as much as I did.  :)

It's perfect for breakfast, mid-day snack, or a healthy alternative to a sweet craving! 


It tasted as good as it looked.

In a blender combine:

2/3 C Vanilla Almond Milk
5.3 oz Container Yoplait Greek-Apple Pie Flavored Greek Yogurt
1/2 Apple Sliced and Peeled
1/2 Banana
1/2 tsp Cinnamon
1/4 tsp Nutmeg
6 Ice Cubes 

Blend well.  Add more ice if needed.  Drizzle with sugar free Carmel syrup, and sprinkle with cinnamon.
ENJOY!






This was one of my favorites so far!  
Hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Fruit and Maple Oatmeal





Lately I have been loving the fruit and maple oatmeal from Mcd's.  I basically re-created it at home, but I made it healthier and of course it is delich.  :)




 Here's what you'll need:
1/2 C Quick Oats (Cooked to directions on box)
1/8- 1/4 C Almond Milk
1/2 C Chopped Apples
2 Tbs Rasins or Nuts
1 Tbls Brown Sugar
1 Tsp Maple Syrup or Honey

2 Tbs Flax Seed (Optional)
1 Tbs Peanut Butter (optional) 
2 Tsp Cinnamon (optional)


After cooking your oatmeal, add the other ingredients into your oatmeal and stir to perfection.  I love this oatmeal and it only takes about 5 minutes to make.   With the optional ingredients it is super good & good for you. And, it only has 1 tbs of Brown Sugar!  I'm a lover of sweets, and this did not leave me thinking I need to add sugar.  It is Delicious.
