These are the best guilt free...ish snack for those who need a little energy lift, something small before a workout or those who are trying to curb dessert! These are perfect for pre-workout as an energy bite to fill you up a little before you go workout or on a run. These can work in place of a protein bar as well and I love to have them if I need just a touch more of a full stomach before heading out the door. They are great any time of day whether it is an at-work snack, pre-workout filler or dessert!
They provide all the taste of dessert but with some healthy benefits to make us feel better about ourselves. What's great is they are bite size balls so you can satisfy the sweet craving without needing to eat a ton. The best part about these is that there are so few ingredients and they take minutes to make! So easy and you can have them prepped for 1-2 weeks as they last forever. They taste great in the fridge and sometimes even better frozen if you put them in the freezer.

Prep Time: 2 minutes

Ingredients

  • 2 ounces Vodka
  • 1-2 tbsp pickled juice whether this be from pickles, spicy beans etc.
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce I like mine extra muddy and do 4-5 shakes.
  • 1 tbsp Tabasco sauce I like mine extra spicy and do 3-4 shakes.
  • 1 tbsp Cholula or Tapatio Since this isn't spicy and more for flavor you can do 2-3 shakes.
  • Clamato juice Don’t even think about the “clam” part as all it does is add some amazing salt taste and thins out the tomato juice, which is a necessity.
  • Celery salt seasoning or Tajin for the rim I actually mix both together.
  • Pickled spicy beans Or pepperoncini or pickled spicy vegetables or pickles.
  • Ice filled cup

Optional

  • Squeeze of lime juice.
  • 1 tbsp A1 or steak sauce.

Instructions

  • Spicy salt rim. Most important start… I already have my celery salt & Tajin mix in a wide Tupperware container to stay ready, sort of like an alcoholic linebacker, always be prepared.
    Put a little water on the glass from the tap letting the water flow around the top edges of the glass. Dip the wet (not dripping) edges of the glass into the salt and get a nice thick rim around the edge.
    Best bloody mary caesar recipe
  • Add in the vodka and ice cubes.
  • Fill the glass with Clamato juice about 1-2 inches from the top and add pickled juice.
  • Shake in sauces to taste & lime juice then stir.
  • Add your ideal pickled garnish... not celery.

Quick and Easy Chicken Pho Recipe

Pho has been sweeping the US for the last couple of years and it might be the most photographed food on Instagram. What is great about pho is that you really can make it however you would like because it is extremely versatile. I was taught some great Pho recipes when traveling through Vietnam with some tips and tricks along the way! Unfortunately it is near impossible to make it as good as the real thing you'd get in Vietnam, especially when you want something quick... however this recipe is still great and will satisfy that craving!

Cook Time: 1 hour
Resting Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 1 hour 10 minutes
Servings: 10 people

Ingredients

  • 10 large eggs
  • 1/2 loaf whole wheat bread cut into 1/2 inch cubes Optional: white bread
  • 2 cups 2% milk Any dairy milk works but fat free makes it a little runny and more bland.
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 lb bulk turkey sausage Optional: bulk pork sausage
  • 1/2 green pepper diced
  • 1/2 red pepper diced
  • 1/2 a white onion minced Optional: no onion as it isn't necessary if you don't like them.
  • 1 tsp garlic minced
  • 1/2 tsp all-spice or italian seasoning mix
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Some people will add salt but the flavor and salt from the meat, eggs, garlic and cheese etc is enough for me.

    Optional

    • 1 tsp red pepper flakes

    Instructions

    • Brown the turkey or pork over medium heat and drain.
    • Remember to dice your bread 1/2 - 1 inch cubes.
    • Dice green peppers, mince onions and garlic. Sautee them in large skillet for 2 minutes. Add in sausage with the vegetable mix.
      Easy Breakfast Casserole
    • Whisk eggs, milk & seasonings together in a separate bowl.

    Toss Together Method

    • Here is where some recipes differ. As a messy bachelor with little patience... I will take all of my ingredients and mix them together in a bowl and then pour into a medium sized greased baking dish... simple enough. I will normally do 2/3rds of the cheese in the mixture and then sprinkle the other 1/3 on the top at the end. 

    Layer Method

    • Other people will layer it like so: layer the bread on the bottom of the greased baking dish; layer the meat & vegetable mix on top of the bread; layer half the cheese on top of that; then pour the milk & egg mixture softly on top of that and then top with rest of the cheese.
      Easy Breakfast Casserole

    Prep & Baking

    • Let sit in the fridge overnight for at least 8-10 hours or more.
    • Next day preheat the oven to 350 and bake the uncovered casserole for 45 minutes until it is golden on top and the egg mixture is set. Cut into the casserole to check and make sure it isn't runny (but don't let it get dry). 
    • Let it set for 10 minutes.
