Just what I needed...CAKE.

Even when I am not feeling well you won't find me skipping meals. Not just because I know I need to eat so my body can fight off whatever is attacking it but more so because I love food. It's a crazy kind of love, like "don't touch my plate or you'll lose a finger" love. Come on, you know what I am talking about ;)

I crawled out of bed around 11am after a good morning nap. Ahhh I <3 morning naps! ---OK back to food.
So I was going to just have my usual Shakeo with almond milk for lunch but I wanted something more scrumptious and cake would obviously make me feel better. So I gave this a whirl!

Chocolate Peanut Butter Shakeology Mug Cake!

Simply amazing and it only took 3 minutes from start to finish! I bet you wouldn't guess there are 28 grams of protein in this little baby! Now that's my kind of lunch! ;)

Ingredients:

1 scoop chocolate Shakeology
1 tbsp PB2 or other powdered peanut butter
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 pinch of sea salt
1 egg
3-4 tbsp unsweetened almond milk
1/2 tbsp all natural peanut butter

Ingredients 

Directions:

In a mug combine chocolate Shakeology, PB2, cocoa powder, sea salt and stir. Add egg and  unsweetened almond milk to the dry ingredients. Mix well until the consistency is smooth like cake batter. Then add the all natural peanut butter on top, which will act as a frosting once it bakes. Toss the 'mug of yum' as I like to call it, in to the microwave for 90 seconds. ENJOY!

Ingredients once mixed together
