So, what happens when you get a big girl DSLR camera?
Naturally, you take pictures of everything in sight...

The trick to good photography that I'm struggling with is actually having the time to LEARN the camera and different settings! I haven't had much time to explore the camera and play around with it, but I'm hoping I will get to this weekend.
Cool pictures to come peeps :)
Now for the good stuff...
It's time to share the infamous healthy breakfast cookie with you all. I cannot and will not take credit for this genius recipe as it's from the ever so awesome Fitnessista's blog. She has wonderful healthy recipes {eats very similar to myself} and shares awesome workouts.
I've been making variations of this breakfast cookie recipe for a while now, but never got around to sharing. It must be your lucky day if you haven't seen this recipe yet.

Breakfast Cookie
*1/3 cup oats
*1 tbs nut butter of choice (typically I use almond)
*1/2 scoop protein powder (you can use white or chocolate. I like chocolate best)
*Stir to combine in a small bowl. Use a spoon to break up the nut butter.
*Add 1/8 cup milk (I use unsweetened vanilla almond milk) and mix.
*Add any mixins: 1/2 mashed banana, chocolate chips, raisins, dried berries, the list goes on. Get creative with it!
*Stir. Sweeten with Stevia or cinnamon.
I almost ALWAYS use cinnamon..delish.
*Put mixture on a small appetizer sized plate and flatten with a spoon
*Refrigerate overnight and then enjoy in the morning with a spoon!
Super easy and soo good!
Are you hungry now?!

ReplyDeleteyou have the most adorable subjects! I am trying to learn my DSLR - but there just never seems to be enough time. I have considered scheduling in homework sessions because I feel like there is so much to learn. Good luck.
