Easy anytime snacks!

These muffins are becoming my go to snacks! I put this together recently during one of my cleanses, where we eliminate all possible irritants from our diet for a couple of days to help the body reset.

I’m always encouraging my clients to have a “what can I have” mindset instead of the “what can’t I have” attitude, as this could lead to feelings of deprivation. Feeling deprived on any of my programs is a no go for me, I always want my clients to feel excited about their food choices and options!

That’s why I’m so excited to share this muffin recipe with you! Not only is it vegan friendly, but it’s also gluten and sugar free! And they are super delicious and works so well as a travel snack!
