Using a high-protein drink like Premier Protein® Salted Caramel and gingerbread morphs this regular overnight oats into the flavors of fall. I find adding the spices overnight dilutes the flavors, so I suggest waiting to add most of the spices before serving.

- ¼ pear , chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped walnuts
- 0.5 teaspoons ground cinnamon , divided
- 6 ounces caramel-flavored protein shake , such as Premier Protein®

Urban Legend Chocolate Chip Cookies
You may have heard this story...a woman asks to buy a cookie recipe and is told it will cost 'two-fifty.' She thinks this means $2.50, but then she gets her credit card bill back and finds out it is $250.00. Outraged, she spreads the recipe far and wide to try and get her money's worth. I first heard this story 6 years ago and was given a recipe on a sheet of paper which bore the date '1986.' The supposed originator of the recipe was a well-known cookie company. I have since heard this tale again several times, with the recipe originating from different upscale department stores. True story? Who knows, but it's a darn good cookie. Here's my version.
Spinach and Feta Pita Bake
This feta and spinach pita bake is tasty, full of flavor, and good for you. It makes a great party appetizer or a full meal. The crunchy crust is what I really like! You can switch up the veggie toppings and cheeses. This is our favorite quick meal.
Yummy Vegan Pesto
This is a classic vegan pesto recipe that I love! So quick to make by blending olive oil, pine nuts, basil, garlic, and nutritional yeast to get that cheesy flavor. Very tasty on pasta, bread, sandwiches, omelets, etc.
