Reese peanut butter cup on plan




(I also made these smaller ones in an egg silicone tray for me to have at Easter while the kiddos have their Cadbury pb eggs I got mine. And in the smaller egg form I get 3 per meal) note picture below.

Holy cow. I was craving something sweet. A Reese's peanut butter cup. Mix the optavia brownie mix with the required water in a bowl; mix 2 tablespoons pb2 with 1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon water in bowl. Spray silicone with non stick spray. Layer 1/2 brownie mix first then all the pb2 mix then the remaining brownie. Put in the freezer for about 2 hours. I got my sweet tooth totally satisfied.

I'm going to michaels tomorrow to get a candy mold so I can make bite size ones instead of a big one. 

Pb2 = snack
Brownie = 1 fueling 

This combo makes a great shake to.

    This is one of my favorite treats. Sometimes, for variety, I use the chocolate chip cookie instead of the brownie. Or the pudding with peanut butter works great too. And you get more because you get so much pudding. I have a small heart shaped silicone tray. When I use the pudding I get 12 hearts! With the brownie and the chocolate chip cookie I get 6 hearts.

    I love that you found such a creative way to satisfy your sweet tooth while still staying on track with Optavia.

Cottage cheese chips

Image
1 serving  Each serving provides  1/2 leaner 1 condiment  3/4 cup 2% cottage cheese  1/2 teaspoon everything but bagel seasoning  Preheat oven to 350. Mixed the 2 items together. Line a cookie sheet with parchment paper and lightly spray with nonstick spray. Put 1/2 teaspoon mounds on cookie sheet and bake for approximately 8 minutes. Always double check oven because every oven is different. It also depends on if you want them more cooked. Cook just till they start to brown around the edges. Take out of oven; cool just for a minute or so then gently pull off. They will get crispy. Approximately 24 chips but that depends on your size and how many you eat before you count!  As you can see some of mine got very brown experimenting with the correct time in oven.
