PROTEIN BITES
Frozen treats are the way to the summers heart, and I’m continuing with my protein bites recipes, in sharing these Almond Butter Protein Bites with you today. I’ve had so much love for the blueberry protein bites I’ve shared, along with the apple cinnamon protein bites, this was a delicious twist on that concept with other ingredients. My name is Kristen Duke, and I’m delighted to be back sharing ideas on The Idea Room, it’s how I got started in blogging! Here is a little blurb about me and my site:
I met Amy in 2010 after photographing her family, and she asked if I wanted to share photo tips as a guest blogger. I did, I loved it, and it spurred a desire for me to share MORE on my site, so I did just that! My site has lots of photo tips, along with our family adventures from home projects to best recipes to travel. From those early photo tip shares was born, Say NO to Auto, a beginner photo book and guide to learn to shoot in manual settings.
I’ve also got a private photography Facebook group, Capturing Joy Photo Club, where we discuss everything photography related, if that interests you, I’d love to have you join us! Just click on the image below, request access, and I’ll add you.

Not sure what 2 each frozen bananas means. 2 for each serving? 2 for each helping? why not just 2 bananas? Sorry I’m confused with a simple direction but the ‘each’ is throwing me off.
Sorry that was confusing. I fixed it to 2 bananas.
