THANK GOD for the little things in life.

Every day I find thrill in little things like a perfectly hot cup of green tea, blasting Clair du Lune when it plays on my Pandora, and clean hair. I love this about myself because it truly makes life better. Never forget to celebrate little things!

Today I’m giving you something to celebrate!

After about 8 years – no, I’m not joking – I have finally perfected ANOTHER one of my favorite recipes EVER and I’m going to share it with you!

Introducing…Chocolate Chip Protein Perfect Breakfast Cake!!!!!!

The reason this recipe is so important:

  • Nearly every client of mine struggles with finding breakfast options that are delicious and give you fuel for the day
  • What you eat for breakfast literally programs your body for fat storage OR fat burning for the entire day
  • Protein at breakfast is critical to stabilize blood sugar, optimize energy and boost brain performance
  • A macronutrient balanced breakfast promotes fat burning and weight loss
  • Every one needs a breakfast option that is easy to make ahead of time for grab-and-go mornings
  • This delicious cake also serves as a fantastic pre-workout option
  • Literally feels like you are having a small cheat meal

Literally, I could go on and on about this recipe. Instead, I’m going to share it with you so that you can add your own reasons as to why it’s THE BEST!
