Returning with some Rocky Road Proyo

I feel like I have not been spending nearly enough time on this little space on the internet. I apologize my recent work schedule was crazy and limiting my free time quite a lot. I had five week long out of town trainings within the last couple months and now that I am finished I hope to restore some normal into my life. I finished up my last training on Friday in the Windy city and definitely enjoyed some time there.

With all the traveling I was forced to eat out basically all of my meals.... something I would never do under regular circumstances and I honestly didn't enjoy it one bit. I really have come to enjoy a much healthier lifestyle, getting in my workouts and eating healthy meals as often as possible. I felt uneasy about the situation since I really had to no choice but now that the trainings are over its time to jump back into healthy. I have vowed to myself to spend the month of November eating as healthy as possible.

I started last night by doing some major meal prepping. I made breakfast and lunches for the week. For breakfast I made a large batch of pumpkin protein pancakes, new recipe coming at you later this week (I swear I have about 100 recipes I want to share so I may just flood you with them) and for lunch chicken veggie stir fry.

I felt so good about getting that all ready last night to set myself up for success this week so at the end of the night I rewarded myself with some healthy but super yummy rocky road "ProYo" I posted this picture on instagram and got several texts and questions asking what it was and how to make it so it seemed pretty clear a post on it today was the way to go.

ProYo has been flooding my instagram feed from fitness accounts for some time. Most people make it with Greek yogurt but since I am somewhat lactose intolerant I take a slightly different approach when making mine. Its very simple and may I add Finance approved so you know it doesn't taste too healthy.

What you need:

• 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
• 1.5 TBS Sugar free chocolate pudding mix
• 1/4- 1/2 cup almond/coconut milk
• 1/2 banana
• Optional Rocky road toppings: mini chocolate chips, chopped walnuts, marshmallow bits, fat free cool whip  

What you do:

• Blend up protein powder, pudding mix, milk and banana until smooth
• Poor into bowl and freeze for 1.5- 2 hours
• Top with goodies and enjoy

Obviously this is very simple to make a good alternative to ice cream or dessert at night to keep you on track and get in some extra protein. Let me know what you think :)
