This weekend, the little man and I went out of town. We were able to stock up on a couple pantry necessities and make some breakfast and snack items while in KC with the grandparents.
Costco = Awesome!
little boy + cooking = an entertaining afternoon
Upon our return home, I was able to prep some meals for the week!
Meal/Snack Prep
Breakfast Brownies | bananas + chocolate +peanut butter
3 old ripe bananas
1/2 cup peanut butter (or the like)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2 scoops of chocolate protein powder
**optional topping- dark chocolate chips
Mashed the banana and mix with the cocoa, protein, and nut butter until smooth. Pour the mixture in a greased 8×8 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes, or until set. Allow to cool before slicing and storing.
Quinoa | milk + quinoa
