Whew, is it hot here in South Florida!
I just got done filming a few workout videos for My YouTube Channel. Did you know that people watch more YouTube than they do TV?
Anyhow, I just finished some great workout and exercise videos and when I came inside I was famished. Hmmmm what can I whip up in just a few minutes? Hmmmmm what am I craving..................... For some unknown reason NUTELLA came to my mind.
So I used Katie as inspiration (she has amazing recipes), remember I interviewed her? If you didn't get it, check it out here...... Chococlate Covered Katie. And her is what I came up with....... A NUTELLA Oatmeal Protein Cake. Need I say more?
Before I give you this delicious and healthy recipe, I want you to see a point here. It literally took me minutes to assemble this healthy snack. I popped it in the oven and by the time I showered and got dressed, it was waiting for me, warm, chocolaty and yummy.
You see people, it doesn't take hours to eat healthy. So many people eat out a lot because they say they don't have time. And while I get that some are busier than others, there is always a way and this healthy snack recipe took me about 5 minutes to assemble and now I have snacks for 3 days. You can totally do this. And if you are up for the CHALLENGE, check out all my HEALTHY RECIPES on My Pinterest. There are tons of QUICK, EASY AND YUMMY HEALTHY SNACK RECIPES that you can PIN and organize into your OWN BOARDS.
Being prepared with healthy snacks and meals made at home help you get even better results. And best of all, its CHEAPER and YUMMIER. You don't have to eat raw vegetables and hard boiled eggs everyday in order to lose weight and get fit.
