PEANUT BUTTER + BANANA GREEN PROTEIN SHAKE

April 6, 2016 by Amanda R DeWitt

When you take my favorite food in the world [ peanut butter ], combine it with a sweet, ripe banana and a handful of greens (you know, to make it semi-healthy and give it a pretty color), you have yourself a tasty breakfast, snack or post workout shake. Allow me to introduce you to the Peanut Butter Banana Green Protein Shake aka my new favorite drink.

These pumpkin protein pancakes will fill you up with semi-healthy goodness and make you excited to get up in the morning. Plus the simple 3 ingredient syrup screams fall and won’t send you on a sugar high like most syrups.

20 Minute Meal: Bacon + Beef Burrito Bowl Recipe [GF, DF, EF, NF]

October 14, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

This beef burrito bowl recipe is quick, flavorful and satisfying. You can also tweak it in a million ways to mix it up or just make it your own! But if you’re like me, the bacon will probably always be in the burrito bowl mix. Because…bacon.

Banana Chocolate Chip Funfetti Cookie Bars with Lemon [NF]

September 30, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

These funfetti cookie bars can be whipped up in a flash. The sweetness from the banana and zing from the lemon will make you even happier than the fun sprinkles.

Smores Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bars [NF]

September 23, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

It’s probably a good thing that I only got one piece of this s’mores chocolate chip cookie dough bar because if it were up to me, I would have cleaned the whole pan. And that’s not super healthy, right?

Frozen Banana Pops Covered in Chocolate Taste Like Dilly Bars

September 2, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

These delicious frozen chocolate covered banana pops covered in chocolate are the perfect semi-healthy treat for a hot summer day. Or any day, really. The frozen bananas taste so similar to ice cream (especially when you use super ripe bananas), but you get the benefit of potassium, no added sugar and no dairy. The chocolate candy shell is just icing on top.

Almond Delight DIY Coffee Creamer

August 12, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

This refreshing semi-healthy DIY coffee creamer with a hint of almond and cinnamon will have you forgetting the store bought creamer. DIY coffee creamer is my latest obsession to be honest.

July 29, 2015 by Amanda R DeWitt

Semi Healthy Banana Super Oat Muffins via @semihealthnut at semihealthyblog.com

These sweet little banana super oat muffins will delight your taste buds and surprise you with some super healthy ingredients. I mean, they do have butter and sugar, so I would definitely stick them in the semi-healthy dessert category, but oh my golly are they a tasty semi-healthy treat!
