Apple Crisp Yogurt Recipe

With this sweltering heat I'm remember of fonder times. When it wasn't as hot, as sweaty, as it was crisp weather with comfort foods! Unfortunately with comfort foods there's usually calories you're not wanting-- especially if you have a fat loss goal! The first year I started clean eating I was devastated to give up my Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Fried Apples, and Cinnamon rolls. However once I started seeing the results from ditching the calories, how much better I felt from skipping the sugar... I was HOOKED. Still, I wanted my favourites. So, I made a commitment to start finding recipes to foods and drinks that could replace the old habits I had. As part of making this my lifestyle I'm committed to not giving up everything that I enjoy, but rather finding balance so I can have my health and my food! Right now my go to for ice cream is replacing it with greek yoghurt-- it's got a great punch in fat and protein to help keep me full but also creamy enough to feel satisfying for that sweet tooth.

Ingredients:
1 apple washed and cut into chunks
1 teaspoon of dark chocolate chips
1 cup plain greek yoghurt
1 tsp of all natural peanut butter
sprinkle of cinnamon

Directions:
Mix the ingredients together and enjoy!

It really is that simple to have a healthy after school snack, a pick me up during the slumps of the day, OR when you're reaching for something sweet or crunchy. THIS is my go to. Often the kids are also trying to but in and steal some, so you may want to make extra for yours too ;)
