Since I’m a perimenopausal woman dead set on starting my day with about 30 grams of protein, you can rest assured that my version of overnight oats is high protein, as well as blood-sugar balancing with fiber and healthy fats added.

Since I’m a perimenopausal midlife woman, I am trying to start my days with about 30 grams of protein.

Luckily, this little recipe right here gets me pretty close to that goal and gives me the yummy coffee-in-the-morning ritual I love without the caffeine.

As a midlife woman, I am always looking for ways to add more protein into my diet.

I invented these protein energy balls because I was looking for more ways to use my favorite protein powder. I wanted something quick, that I could eat on the go, AND that met my blood sugar balancing criteria of containing protein, fiber and healthy fats.

Protein is critical at every meal. I love baking and wanted to try my new protein powder in muffins. So, I played “test kitchen” and I am so happy with how these came out!

Can non-alcoholic, dairy-free, egg-free “eggnog” actually be good? Yes! It’s got the creaminess of cashew milk that I love, plus all the best holiday spices to make it feel like a special treat.
