Are mornings in your household crazy for you as well? I value my sleep and try to get as much sleep as possible (while being a night owl because I value my alone time even more). So I’m not one of those mom’s that will wake up at 4 am to go to the gym, shower, read or listen to an uplifting book or a podcast, then dressed and makeup ready with a hot breakfast ready by the time the kids wake up. I know there are these moms out there and I admire those moms greatly and think they’re amazing! It just isn’t realistic for me and will probably never happen.
 
I wake up when the kids wake up. Then I have about 30 mins. to make their breakfast and pack their lunches so it can get a little hectic, which is why I have my go to breakfast that I will share with you below that is super easy to prepare the night before or weeks before in advance to freeze, and my kids love them! I serve it with a glass of cold fairlife ultra-filtered milk, and bam, there is your complete breakfast.
 
While these energy balls are pretty filling themselves, I love that with the 50% extra protein and 350% less sugar found in fairlife milk compared to regular milk, it keeps my kids’ tummies full and content.
 
fairlife comes in fat-free, 1%, 2%, whole milk as well as chocolate milk that my husband likes to drink after a work-out, which is the whole reason why our family was introduced to the fairlife milk in the first place!
 
So I invite you to try this easy recipe and pair it with fairlife ultra-filtered milk! My kids have told me they feel like they’re eating cookies & milk for breakfast, which is why it’s their favorite breakfast. And just like cookies and milk go hand in hand, these healthy energy balls go hand in hand with milk.

The Face I Used to Make

~ SEWING

      If you look at all of my refashions from the past few years, this is the “before” face I make. It’s the face that’s too timid to make any other face ‘cause of a few saying how dare I be so disrespectful to plus sized, when I’m already stealing their size(this dress […]
