  • you’re show was deceitful ….you and your guest insinuated that ‘all’ of the recipes were on our website……NOT true. I thought ‘your show ‘ was better than that.

    I have been looking for the balls of ‘treats ‘

  • Hi All, we are working on getting the other recipes posted. Sometimes timing just doesn’t line up and we just don’t have access to the recipes in time. But they are coming! We’ll get them up as soon as is possible. Thank you for your patience!

  • This smoothie recipe does not include every ingredient she showed on the show. She added powdered Collagen to her smoothie. Also wondering if there are exact measurements for the ground flax seed, kale, etc.
    Kristin mentioned that she would have her original recipe and her new updated version of her recipe for her protein poppers on your website too. (One didn’t have rice krispies.)

  • Protein Shake, it doesn’t say how much protein powder to use? It doesn’t say how much frozen berries, How much ground flax seed? the video doesn’t show the flax seed going into the shake so I can’t even eyeball how much she may be using. What brand of collagen and green vibrant powder, I tried looking at them on Amazon and there are several different kinds. Can we get accurate measurements on the recipe? If we buy a different brand… the scoop, if there is one, size may vary. I know it sounds picky but not unreasonable to ask for measurements on a recipe. Thank you so much for having her on with these wonderful protein filled things to eat.
