Toasted up with some butter or topped with your favorite jam or nut butter. We whipped up this simple and delicious recipe in just about an hour (including baking time).

Happy Thursday W+A friends! Tonight we are headed to the city for a tasting and of course New York is still holding on to that winter weather. We were teased with a few nice days last week, which gave us a taste of spring time weather. This week we wanted to use up some of our frozen three ingredient dough. Now that we've tested it out on bagels and pizzas, garlic knots were the next obvious choice. These were so easy to make and we paired them with some zucchini noodles and sauce. They are also a great lunchtime snack, toasted up in the morning with some butter or can be enjoyed with a big salad or soup. Here is everything you'll need to make these garlicky guys:  Ingredients  1 c of self rising flour  1 c of plain nonfat Greek yogurt (drained)  3/4 tsp of salt  2 tsp of baking powder  1 tbsp of olive oil  1 tbsp of butter  2-3 cloves of garlic (chopped) 2 tbsp of grated Parmesan cheese 1 tbsp of fres...

Ever have FOMO when someone is eating something you really want to indulge in but your trying to be good? It can happen at family gatherings, office parties or when you walk outside of your gym after a great workout and smell bagels from the bagel shop next door. Le sigh, we are guilty of it. But why not be able to enjoy without all of the self loathing? I'll be honest, I saw about five delicious donut posts this morning on Instagram and I instantly was craving a sugary treat. We recently bought a donut pan and I've been wanting to try it out and see what we could create. So, we made some protein donuts! Here's what you'll need:  Ingredients (yields 6 donuts) 2 c of Kodiak Cakes mix 1/2 c unsweetened vanilla almond milk 1/3 cup water 1 egg 3 tbsp of sweetener of choice (we used Stevia) 1 tsp vanilla extract The Glaze  1/2 c of confectioner sugar 1 tsp of vanilla  1/3 c of unsweetened vanilla almond milk  Sprinkles for topping...

Happy Thursday W+A friends! We've been busy in the kitchen lately testing out some easy and healthy recipes for you all. John and I love sweets, but we try extra hard not to indulge during the week. For us to be successful prepping is a must. Usually on Sundays we like to make a healthy treat that we can enjoy either for breakfast, during that 3 p.m. slump or for dessert. If you've been following the blog for a bit you'll know we love making our easy pumpkin chocolate chip muffins, but this morning I decided to use what we had in the cupboards and fridge. I had some fresh blueberries, which we love adding to smoothies and yogurt, but muffins just seemed like the next best thing. Each muffin is around 70 calories so completely guiltless, but so delicious! Here's everything you'll need to yield 24 regular sized muffins. Ingredients (yields 24 muffins) 1 box of sugar free cake mix (we used Pillsbury  Sugar Free Yellow Cake) 1/2 c of unsweetened apple sauce ...
