The struggle is real for our busy lives. Don’t be tempted by the drive through, make this easy recipe at home and freeze it for popsicles when you are having a sugar craving. Have you heard that sugar is as addictive as crack! Time to ingest the healthy sugars.

Trina’s Tidbits:

I feed my kids the best quality ingredients and natural protein sources when possible.

We do not consume whey protein powder. Instead, we use this all natural protein powder because it’s family friendly and safe for my kids. I believe in the best quality ingredients and natural protein sources whenever possible.

When selecting Protein Powder, choose one that is clean and most importantly look for an “NSF certified label” and clean plant based powder.
