Banana Apple Muffins



I'm on day 66 of the 80 Day obsession program and I feel like I've honestly found my soul mate workout program.  It challenges me and gives variety and yet it isn't killing my body (my knees are good etc).  I've also been following the timed nutrition plan for the program so I've tried quite a few new recipes and been getting creative as well with my meal combos!  

One of the combos I have is a Blue container (healthy fat), Green Container (veggies) and Purple Container (fruit), which at first I had no idea what to have for that meal.  But I've actually come up with several meal options and it's become one of my favourite meals of the day!

A few of my meal combos for meal option 2 💙💚💜 have been Spinach, Strawberries and goat cheese as well as my favourite little snack box with green grapes, white cheddar and cucumber slices!

Then for a few weeks I made these Banana Apple muffins which count as a Blue and Purple so for my afternoon snack I would have a muffin and a cup of tea PLUS some sort of vegetable along side it!

These babies are so tasty and easy to make. BONUS is they are gluten free and if you sub the grass fed butter for coconut oil they could be dairy free as well!

What I've learned with following from this program is that having a new program to follow inspires me, it pushes me to get creative with my meals and not get lazy!  You can't out exercise a bad diet so following the nutrition plan is SO important to your success in any program you are following!
