PUMPKIN SPICE PROTEIN BITES

In a blender mix together:

1/4 cup oat flour
1/4 cup protein powder (I used vanilla)
2 tsp pumpkin spice
2 tsp cinnamon
2 tsp sweetener of choice

Then add
1/4 cup peanut butter or any nut butter
1/4 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Pulse until it all comes together.  Roll into bite size balls and refrigerate
or freeze.

Perfect to have on hand when you are craving a little sweet or just pumpkin flavor!

BEAN SALSA

This is the simplest bean salsa you will ever make!  Serve with pita chips, veggies, sweet potato chips...throw it on top of a salad...whatever you want!  OR just get a spoon and dive in!

Mix together 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, and 3 tablespoons greek yogurt. Then add in:
1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
1 can kidney beans, drained and rinsed
1/2 red onion finely diced
1 avocado cut in chunks
2 tomatoes cut in chunks (I take the seeds out so it does not become liquidy)
2 cups frozen corn that is thawed and drained

Mix gently and season with salt and pepper.  ENJOY!!
