Waffle Champion has been around for many, manyContinue reading “Waffle Champion”

PBJ Smoothie Bowl

Everyday after I workout, I drink the same smoothie – collagen, oat milk, supergreens and frozen berries blended together. It gives me the fuel I need after a workout to recover, but it’s just basic and plain. I decided to mix it up and turn it into a smoothie bowl with some fun toppings!
