No Bake Protein Power Ball Recipe

Thursday, May 23, 2013 by Angeles Burke

Finding a healthy snack in the store can be difficult at times. When reading the front of a box, the company may claim that their snack is a healthy alternative for snacking. Then you flip the box around and read the ingredients and find a mile long list of ingredients that you cannot pronounce. One of my clean eating mantras is, “If you cannot pronounce it, you may not want to eat it.” While you may find some healthy snacks in the store, many of them are not high protein options.

Friday, May 17, 2013 by Angeles Burke

From our first meeting, I helped Zak create goals that were more specific and easily attainable. So instead of “I want... Continue Reading »
