Protein Filled Pumpkin Pudding

November 21, 2011 by Nia Shanks

I don’t know if the following recipe can be classified as a legitimate “pudding”, but this is my website and so I’m going to call it pudding nonetheless. This is a recipe I’ve been meaning to share with you for quite some time, and since Thanksgiving is just a few days away and everyone will have a surplus of pumpkin, I figured now or never. I usually enjoy this as a “dessert” after my post …

Three Methods of Intermittent Fasting (Updated)

August 8, 2011 by Nia Shanks

Amazing Bison Chili
