Healthy French Toast

Clean Eat Recipe Healthy Protein French Toast

Yes, you read that right...Healthy Protein French Toast! I based this off of how my dad used to make us French toast when we were little. We would have it as an occasional treat on the weekends. :-) This recipe really reminded me of him since he just left a few weeks ago to finish hiking the Appalachian Trail!

Chocolate Chunk Protein Stack

Hello! I am super excited to be guest posting on He and She Eat Clean!

My journey to living a healthier and happier life started in 2011 when I learned about weight lifting and how to cook delicious clean foods. I have always loved to cook but did not really know how to cook clean/healthy meals and actually enjoy them. One day I decided to go onto Pinterest and search “clean recipes” which led me to reading TONS of healthy food blogs. That was a total eye opener! Not only were the recipes healthy but they were very easy to make and SUPER delicious. I was sold.  Here I am 4 years later with 3 NPC fitness competitions under my belt, much more motivation and energy than I have ever had before and a much broader knowledge of healthy yet extremely yummy foods! I definitely still have a serious peanut butter addiction though. I fear that will never change.

Not only do I love peanut butter but I am quite a fan of chocolate. Dark chocolate, chocolate chip cookies, chocolate covered strawberries… etc. Below is one of my absolute favorite chocolate recipes to date. What’s even better is that it’s

a breakfast recipe. Chocolate for breakfast is a must… at least I like to think so!
