Clean Eating & 21 Day Fix Approved
Strawberry Cheesecake
Justin & I just started and committed to the newest Beachbody program, Shift Shop! We are on Day 8 and are both absolutely loving it. However, this is the first program Justin has EVER stuck to the nutrition with me to a T, so he was beginning to struggle last week keeping his sweet tooth cravings under control. To keep him on track with our meal plan I decided to make some healthier dessert recipes to get him by. I found this recipe shortly after and we both fell in LOVE.
So simple to make, all clean ingredients, and it looks and taste delicious. Clean eating or not the entire family will enjoy it. So try it, share it, and let me know what you think!
