I am making these tonight and will post pictures as soon as I do! I am so excited to make them I thought I would share the recipe first! HUBBY IS HOME! That's why I have been absent a bit, he came home Saturday so I have been enjoying family time!
 
My husband likes to work out, he likes his protein and he has a sweet tooth. My daughter and I were going to make them Friday and have them ready for his return but that didn't happen. Here is the recipe I will be using and I will will share pictures and taste comments tonight!!!
 
Ingredients:
2 cups Organic peanut butter, crunchy
2 scoops Husbands Protein Powder
Sea salt, to taste
Water, as needed.
2 cups vegan sugar free dark chocolate
1 tsp vanilla extract
 
Directions:
 Mix peanut butter, protein powder, sea salt and water in a large bowl.
 Roll mixture into balls (approx.1 tablespoon per ball) and place in a dish, then refrigerate for 30-45 minutes. 
Melt your chocolate. Stir in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
Line a baking sheet with wax paper. Remove balls from refrigerator.
Dip into melted chocolate and arrange on baking sheet.
Let set for 30-45 minutes, then place in the refrigerator for another 30-45 minutes before serving.
 
You can use any peanut butter, protein, chocolate you would like!!!

A Valentine for the man in your life (kids too)

Metallic Magnet Cars!!!! These are great for a guy (little guy or big guy) In the garage or kids bedroom! I made this one for the hubby for his garage :)
 
All you need is ....... paint (love this stuff) some cars (mine are plastic) magnets (I used strip magnets and cut small squares) and a place to put them (I made a magnetic board)
 
I painted the cars in a box,*uses less spray paint if you don't know how to properly use spray paint like me :)
 
Let them dry.
Glue magnets on the bottom.

 
Give him them on a **magnetic board for Valentine's day with some cute love coupons, notes, movie tickets or anything you like.

**I will post how to make different magnetic boards in the future :)
 
Then you can hang cute little hunny do's for him throughout the year or he can remind himself of things he needs to get done (ah-em)
 
Aw....a gift with an ulterior motive :)
