Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Parfait

February 18 2014

What's your workout like? Yoga? Maybe dance, or are you a runner? No matter what you love to do, pumping your heart and giving your cells oxygen is the most important part! Nourishing yourself afterwards is a close second - so why not have some fun with it? 

Protein is incredibly important when you're getting active and using your body. Without an adequate amount of protein, our muscles can't heal as quickly or efficiently as they should. Post-workout protein shakes are always a delicious way to refuel, but why not indulge and whip up an amazing dessert to switch things up!

  • 1 spoon of peanut butter
  • 1 tsp organic coconut palm sugar or 2 drops liquid stevia (optional)
