Get into the spirit—and your skinny jeans—with these delicious Holiday Shakeology recipes

I drink one of these delicious shakes every day.  I replace one meal a day with my Shakeology; usually breakfast and I'm full for the next 3 to 4 hours.   Even just blended in milk it's so delicious but a lot of us Shakeology fanatics LOVE creating and sharing recipes.  There are a thousand recipes floating around out there but here are five that are GREAT for the holidays!  I hope you try some :)  Don't have shakeology?  http://HeavenInAGlass.info
