It is a lot like blueberry pudding, not that there is such a thing but that's what it's like! I enjoyed it on my yummy monster sized protein muffin!  Check out the steam coming off that baby! Here's the recipe for that, I just left out the 'frosting': Basic Protein Muffin: 1/2 cup canned Pumpkin 1 1/2 Tbs. Flour of your choice 1 scoop Chocolate Protein Powder (16 grams) 1 tsp. Baking Powder 1/4 tsp Baking Soda 1/2 tsp. Sweet Leaf Stevia 1/4 cup Flax Milk (or milk of your choice) 1/4 cup Egg Whites (I used powdered with H2O) 1/2 tsp. Vanilla Frosting: 1 tsp. FF/SF Chocolate Jell-o Pudding (dry) 1 Tbs. Sugar Free Maple Syrup Combine Muffin ingredients in a microwave safe mug (I use a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup) Microwave for 5-6 minutes (Times may vary) While the muffin is cooking, combine frosting ingredients. Turn out muffin, cool just slightly, spread with frosting and Enjoy!

Me, too!
Life is kind of getting in the way of my life right now! Ha!
Honestly, I am trying to regroup and figure a few things out.
I am totally swamped with homework, and just trying to find enough hours in the day.
I have a 4-mile race in Ft. Wayne this weekend and I am SO excited!
I am meeting up with 3 friends that I have never met in person! We met online and this is our first chance getting to hang out. I could NOT be more excited!!
I had a nice 4 mile run today. Wait, nice? The run itself was good (and much needed) the weather was another story...It was wet and foggy and rainy and seriously gloomy and weird. I was sweating like crazy, so that made it better!
So on to some fun stuff to distract from the fact that I haven't been an award winning blogger{sorry!}
You tried chia yet? Seriously...get on board the chia train and start here!
Cha-Cha-Cha Chia! Yep...that's the stuff!
Tell me that this doesn't look delicious?!
This is my homemade Blueberry Chia Jam, and it is sugar free!
