I’ve made baked apples before. I’ve made baked oatmeal before. But baked oatmeal in an apple was a first for me and it was DELICIOUSSS. Highly recommended!
Baked Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal
Serves: 1
1 medium apple
1/3 cup old-fashioned oats
1/2 cup water
1 tsp chia seeds
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp baking powder
2 TBSP sugar free syrup
1 stevia packet
Preheat the oven to 350F. Slice the top off of your apple and then create a well in the apple by scooping out the core. Save the edible portions! Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl and microwave for 60-90 seconds. Slice and add in the edible portions of the apple from when you made a well, and stuff the apple with your oatmeal! Not all of it fits, but cram as much as you can in there. Just eat whatever is left ;) Place the stuffed apple and apple top in the oven and bake for 30 minutes at 350F. After I took it out, I topped mine with a little more sugar free syrup and cinnamon.

Get it done! No excuses. There's ALWAYS a solution!
Complain about it or do something about it!
The choice is yours!

5 lbs of fat vs. 5 lbs of muscle
The scale isn’t budging…. You are putting in the time, working out and lifting heavier then you have prior. Your clothes are FITTING better and you FEEL smaller but what is going on? That SCALE number isn’t budging or even worse, it keeps going up? Before you toss the scale out the window there is a bit of critical information you must learn about Fat vs. Muscle.
Muscle just takes up so much less space than fat. So yes, your weight may not adjust much but when you replace fat with muscle you will be so much smaller and tighter.

Orange Shrimp Stir-Fry
Serves: 2
7-8 oz frozen, pre-cooked shrimp
1 orange
1/2 large zucchini
1/2 green bell pepper
1/2 white onion
1 cup frozen sliced okra
1 TBSP minced garlic cloves
1 TBSP sesame seeds
3/4 tsp ginger
3 TBSP low sodium soy sauce
1/2 cup no salt added chicken broth
Peanut Sauce
3 TBSP peanut flour
3-5 TBSP unsweetened almond milk
Start by unthawing your pre-cooked frozen shrimp. For this you just need to run it under cold water for 5-6 minutes. I like to just set my shrimp in a strainer with the sink water running while I prep the rest of dinner. While that’s going, peel your orange and cut each individual slice into 3-4 smaller cubes. Chop your zucchini, green bell pepper, and onions and mince the garlic. In a large frying pan, add all of your ingredients except for the shrimp and the peanut sauce ingredients. Let it all cook on a medium heat until the liquid is cooked off. Then toss in the unthawed shrimp and cook for 4-5 more minutes in order to heat up the shrimp. Done! Top with more sesame seeds and the peanut sauce. For the sauce, I start with a 1:1 ratio of peanut flour to almond milk and just add more milk slowwllyyy until it’s how runny I want it.
For the noodles I used angel hair shirataki noodles.
EAT UP!

Carrot Cake Egg White Oatmeal
❤👍☀💪👌🐰🍰❤
Serves 1
1/2 cup old fashioned oats
3/4 cup water
3 TBSP carrot puree (I use baby food)
1-2 TBSP shredded carrot
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Stevia (Optional)
1 egg white
Mix all of the ingredients in a bowl except for the egg white. Microwave for 2 minutes. Then stir in the egg white and microwave another 30-90 seconds, stirring every 20 seconds until the egg is cooked. You have to stir in intervals or else the egg will cook in clumps, which isn’t as appetizing…. Anyways. I topped mine with more cinnamon, raisins, Better’n Peanut Butter, and a tablespoon of sugar free syrup. Pecans and/or walnuts would also be PERFECT with it!
