Hi babe! Can you believe it's already December?!

We spent the week in festive and frosty NYC with all the beautiful holiday storefronts and decorations. And at home in Manhattan Beach, the pier is decorated with twinkling lights and gorgeous wreaths. It makes the beach feel like a sandy winter wonderland! ❄️

Speaking of a winter wonderland, we were inspired by the hustle of the holiday season and the snow of our East Coast hometowns to create today's recipe! With parties to attend and gifts to shop for, it's important to have easy, delicious healthy treats on hand. That way, we can stay more present in experiencing every moment of the holidays.

This recipe was created for you ~ badass babe on the go! These Coconut Snowflake Bites are packed with plant based protein powder, so you can stash a few in your gym bag for a post-workout snack. Plus, they pretty much double as cookie dough 😋

Enjoy babe!
