Boo Hoo Halloween? Try These Tricked Out Treats

 

Try these tricked out treats for YOUR Happy Halloween!

Each Halloween, we are bombarded by ads for chocolate and candy for the Trick-or-Treaters and some how, WE end up eating more than the kids! So this year, you can head off calamity by having a few goodies of your own hand. Not only do they taste delicious but they are good for you and can be a healthy treat anytime.

NeoCell Beauty Bursts in Chocolate Mint and Super Fruit Punch

Beauty Bursts - NeoCell
These come in Chocolate Mint and Super Fruit Punch and pack a whopping 2,000 mgs of absorbable protein and collagen in just two chews. Both nutrients are needed for skin, hair and joint health but Beauty Bursts also contain Vitamin C and Hyaluronic acid. A very easy way to put the trick on aging skin! 

Usana Delicious Protein Snacks

Usana Fudge Delite
This and the Choco-Chip are definitely my favorites. These have a really pleasing cookie-dough texture but are surprisingly low glycemic. Each protein snack contains: 12 g protein, 180 calories and 6 g of fat. A yummy alternative when everyone else is gorging on higher calorie treats.

Usana ChocoChip

Dark Chocolate Energy Chews - CocoaWell
I'm not a huge fan of dark chocolate but I like these. These are naturally flavored chews that give you a little boost of energy. They contain 100mg of Chocamine which is a proprietary low-fat cocoa extract with added herbs and spices. Just 20 calories per chew, they contain green tea for natural energy and antioxidant support.

Godiva Hot Cocoa made MUCH healthier with EVO Coconut Oil!

Godiva Hot Cocoa + Coconut Oil
This combination has been known to stop a raging chocoloholic in her tracks. Sometimes sipping something hot and rich can fill the bill more than a whole chocolate bar. Sit back on Halloween night and enjoy some hot cocoa.  Here's my recipe for the best hot cocoa you'll ever taste:

Gourmet Hot Cocoa

3 Tablespoons Godiva Hot Cocoa
8oz of 2% Milk, Heated
1 Teaspoon Extra Virgin Organic Coconut Oil

Dissolve the hot cocoa mix completely into your hot milk. Add in your EVO Coconut Oil. Enjoy!

Valentine's Day Delights

Start your Valentine's Day beautifully! VS Body Shimmer & Angel Mist. Yves Saint Laurent Golden Lip Gloss

Just anticipating a romantic Valentine's Day can send your endorphins racing!  This year, set the mood for the evening to come with a few sensual fragrances and lip treats:


VS Dream Angels Heavenly Shimmer Mist a deliciously scented musk infused gel/mist that leaves a soft fragrance and light shimmery glow where ever you spray it.

YSL Golden Gloss Shimmering Lip Gloss is my absolute favorite.  Rich in vitamin E and botanical oils it gives your lips a 24K shine as it contains pure gold.

VS Dream Angels Desire Angel Mist has more of an alluring spicy scent.  Perfect for behind the knees and the decolletage.

Glossy Tint Lip Sheen and deliciously flavored Shiny Kiss in Manic Pink

Breakfast in Bed!
These are especially easy to make and clean up with these reusable silicone cup liners.  

Cranberry Walnut Breakfast Muffins.

 Cranberry Walnut Muffins Recipe

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 3/4 cup packed brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 2 eggs
• 2/3 cup orange juice
• 1/3 cup vegetable oil
• 1 cup cranberries or Craisins
• 1 cup chopped walnuts

Whisk together wet ingredients in a separate bowl and set aside. Combine all the dry ingredients including the cranberries and walnuts in another bowl. Quickly fold the eggs, orange juice and vegetable oil into the dry ingredients. Batter should be lumpy, not over-mixed. Fill silicone cup liners to almost full and bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes or until golden brown. Allow to rack cool and serve warm with apricot butter.

Hot Cocoa

Have a cup of hot cocoa with a dollop of organic coconut butter!

Get a healthy chocolate fix by adding a teaspoon of Nature's Approved Extra Virgin Organic Coconut Oil to a cup of Godiva Hot Cocoa. So delicious and much better for you than a box of assorted chocolates.
 
Delicious YOU!
