ENABLING YOUR PASSION FOR HEALTHY LIVING

Vegan Salted Caramel Smoothie Recipe

I was always a caramel person over hot fudge. When salted caramel desserts became a thing, I was obsessed with all of them. Why is it that adding just a little bit of salt made caramel so much cooler?

I’m not sure why I waited so long to make a healthy salted caramel treat but I’m glad I finally did! This recipe is easier than it looks and it surprisingly tastes better than you’d think with just 4 ingredients. Have it after your workout or as dessert just because.

It’s my go to lunch dessert after my long half marathon training runs with GNC Live Well. Yes. After a long run, you need a lunch dessert, especially on Saturdays. Depending on when I finish, I either have a shake right away or I eat lunch and finish with a dessert shake like this.

Training Update

I’ve been lucky to fit in two training runs a week for this half marathon. One long run on the weekend and one short one during the week. I also supplement this routine with two spin classes and one strength training. This is largely dictated by where I can get child care and ClassPass.

I will admit, I haven’t run farther than 8.5 miles to date. I’m a little nervous about this but I hate spending so much time away from my boys on the weekends. This weekend is jam packed with Marathon events. I’m hoping to run 10 miles on Sunday. If I can accomplish that, I’ll be happy and feel prepared.
