Healthy Eating an Indulgence?

Who said eating healthy couldn't be an indulgent pleasure?

1 scoop of Chocolate Shakeology
Cinnamon to taste
1 tsp of homemade vanilla extract
3/4 cup cold brewed coffee
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup cold water
Ice
Blend
Enjoy!

Want to try Shakeology? Then click here and get a sample pack. That way you can try all flavors and make recipes of your own!

Homemade Vanilla Extract
2 vanilla beans (I got mine from local CoOp and I have found them at Whole Foods)
Cut vanilla beans lengthwise to expose seeds
Place beans in a mason jar
Fill jar with any 40 proof or higher alcohol (I use Bacardi)
Let it sit in cupboard for at least two days and you are good!

I let the vanilla sit in the jars and just keep topping of with alcohol when running low. That's how I have kept vanilla extract around for 3 years and haven't had to buy from the store.

Cold brewed coffee
Espresso coffee in mason jar
Fill with water
Let it sit for 24 hours
Filter grounds
You are ready to enjoy!
