What's Cookin' Wednesday plus an awesome GIVEAWAY!!

Hello my loves! Time for another #WIAW.... Idk if I am just weird or nosey, but I like seeing what people eat. haha. (ijustrealizedthecreepinessofthatstatement) BUT for me, when I was trying to lose weight it was SO helpful to see what kinds of healthy meals and snacks people would come up with. Especially if you are just starting out on your weightloss journey and don't really know how to cook healthy, or just aren't very inventive when it comes to food.
  I think a big part of eating healthy is to keep it interesting and fun. You'd be suprised at how much simply chopping a vegetable or fruit differently for your salads can make a big difference. I have this little kitchen gadget that makes my apples into apple slice rings and I love it! It's like I'm eating apple chips and it makes me crave apples!

My Breakfast was a Shakeology mug cake with pb on top (ask me if you'd like the recipe!) and slice apples sprinkled with sugar free raspberry jello.... random I know but don't knock it till you try it! hah

For Lunch I had some of my leftovers of this dinner I got when we went out to a Mexican restaurant on Monday night, it's hard to choose healthy options when going to a  Mexican restaurant for me, because I LOVE MEXICAN FOOD. And Cheese<3 haha But I went with this chicken filet with grilled onions, avocado, rice, and black beans with some cheese on them. I think it was a pretty good choice. 

I ended up not eating a snack today because I got busy cleaning. I did however drink one of my IdealShape Boost packets, which are awesome for keeping my energy up and my cravings down. I seriously LOOOOVE these things so much. And they taste delicious. 

For dinner I kept it light because I  had some errands to run and was still full from lunch. I had a naked juice smoothie, love those things!

When I got home I was a bit hungry so I made some of my #strangebutgood egg white chips. I also had one of my ideal shape bars, the cinnamon bun flavor, which is my fave! It tastes like a treat. And I also had some baby carrots haha.That sums up what I ate today, not super exciting, let me know if you try out the egg white chips or the apple slices with jello! 

Now onto the exciting part, since I love Idealshape's boost packets SO MUCH I wanted to give y'all a chance to win a pack of each flavor. This is a $70 value you guys! And they really do help give you a boost of energy and curb hunger in my opinion. They are by far my favorite product that ideal shape has to offer. I also want to offer you a Special 20% discount code for my followers. Just simply put the code BPOWELL20 in the space provided at checkout for 20% off your order.

Protein Cheesecake Recipe

   I've wanted to try this recipe for months! But my husband isn't such a fan of "healthy" desserts, since it's my birthday week I went ahead and made it. It was sooo good you guys! Here is the recipe:

1 pckg fat free cream cheese. 

Yoplait Greek 100 calorie vanilla yogurt.

1 Egg.

3 Eggwhites.

Some sugar free cheesecake pudding mix, like 2 tbsp.

Sugar free graham cracker crust.

1 cup artificial sweetner of choice.

1 scoop vanilla whey.

   I blended all of the ingredients, poured the filling in the crust and baked for 40 mins at 300 degrees. It's about 185 calories and 18g of protein per slice! Enjoy!

Cauliflower Crust Pizza

  Today I got a ton of cleaning done around the house. I also went to the gym and did the cybex machine. No running today because I'm waiting for my knee to cooperate. Tonight's Body Beast workout is back and bis :) I really like these workouts so far they're hard but I like it. 

   I made Cauliflower Pizza today, and I filmed it. It's kind of a complicated process but very worth it if you're trying to lose weight and want something Pizza-esque. So hopefully, my subbies will like watching that. youtube.com/theianuzified
I'm also going to post some pics of the process and the recipe on here. :)

Cauliflower Pizza Crust Recipe

Cauliflower

Egg

Any seasonings you'd like

Toppings of choice

Sauce of choice

-I used my Blendtec to pulse the cauliflower into a sort of rice-like mixture. 

-Using lots of paper towels, I did my best to squeeze out all of the cauliflower juice/liquid. You could also use cheesecloth but I didn't have any. 

-Next I added an egg and blended. 

 -I put my mixture in a mixing bowl and added Mrs.Dash onion and herb, garlic and herb, and Italian medley.

-I let my crust bake at 420 for about 40 mins or so.

-I then topped with my toppings of choice which included: tomato sauce, cheese, chicken, bacon, celery, fire-roasted red peppers, and jalapeños. :) 

-I then let it cook a few more minutes to heat up all my toppings and make the cheese all melty and delicious! 

 And Voila! Cauliflower crust pizza! 

Thanks for reading! Hope you enjoy.
