Tone It Up's Valentine's Day Cupcakes!

Hey everyone! Are you ready for Valentine's Day sweets??? I know I am! I know for me, it doesn't matter what I do for Valentine's Day as long as I get something sweet (usually chocolate) to munch on. This year I have a special recipe for you from my favorite ladies at Tone It Up. It's their Valentine's Day Cupcakes. I had to veganize them of course, and thankfully some of the vegan ladies on the Tone It Up nutrition plan were able to help. These cupcakes cut down on carbs but not on taste, so give them a try and let me know what you think. :-)
