Every day when I come home from a long day at work, I am STARVING! It’s that moment that you think you could likely eat everything in the house, which could easily ruin the entire day’s effort to eat healthy and watch your calorie intake.
In an effort to have a quick fix for the overwhelming hunger pains angrily growling in my stomach, I found a snack that provides a power-packed punch that quickly conquers my hunger and picks me up from my mid-day slump. This snack doesn’t require mixing, baking or preparing…it only requires three simple ingredients and within 30 seconds your new craving is satisfied.

I make this snack with organic rice cakes, which are gluten free, natural peanut butter and half of a banana. This healthy indulgence is the perfect pre or post-workout snack, which provides you with the energy you need to to get you through an intense cardio session, or recover from it, without making unhealthy choices.

About Sheena
There are many different facets of interest in my personal and professional life. My passion for baking has developed over the past several years; I love the satisfaction of sharing my delicious treats with friends and family. My sweet tooth, and love of baking is quite contradictory of my profession. I am a dentist, and currently a post-doctoral student, studying a dental specialty. My other interest is health and fitness...again...quite controversial of my baked goods..but, I believe....all things in moderation. I enjoy running and working out, and even making healthy entrees for my husband and I. After following several other food blogs, I decided, that this would be a new hobby. I am passionate about everything I take part in, and hope that you enjoy this blog and that it inspires you to make each day delicious with homemade prepared meals....and desserts :)
This is a great pre-race breakfast! My mom swears by two of these (but she prefers sunbutter) and actually today it carried her through a half-marathon haha
A nifty idea!
Peanut butter + banana + crunch is a really great combo.
A touch of date syrup could be nice for the flavor and for the nutrients + extra (natural) sugar rush!
Thank you so much for your comments. This snack can be made with many variations. I have become addicted to this pre-workout snack..and have been surprised that even after an intense run or circuit training session, I don’t feel completely wiped out. This snack sticks with you…I love it! Hope you love it as much as I do…have fun creating your own combinations!
