Oats And Ancient Grain Pancakes

admin August 25, 2013 3 Comments

Here’s another pancake recipe! Even though I have several, I keep trying new recipes hoping to stumble upon the perfect one. I’m not sure this is the perfect one, but it is good and easy. Fresh is best, but they freeze well too! They are also something to feel good about with lots of fiber and protein from the oats and ancient grains of quinoa, buckwheat or teff. Unrefined...

Chocolate “Peanut” Butter Protein Bars

admin August 19, 2013 26 Comments

Sometimes I get overly excited in a place like Trader Joe’s or Whole Foods. Like the time I thought buying chocolate hemp protein powder to make a chocolate shake was a good idea. When I first tried it blended with rice milk it was horrible. The next day I tried it with coconut milk and it was not much better. Both concoctions went down the sink drain. In an effort to not waste the...

If you have been following this blog for a while, you may have noticed that I’ve slowed down a bit. Summer has been quite busy. But truth be told, one of the real reasons is that I’ve been hooked on Downton Abbey. I have spent my evenings watching the first three seasons of it. I just love, love, love that show! Anyone else? Another thing I love, love, love is sweet potatoes! We...

I am fascinated with the story of Jordan Rubin. He is a book author, and the founder of Garden of Life; a whole line of vitamins, supplements, protein shakes, and so much more. In fact, he is raising grass fed beef now too. I do not use any of his products or beef, but I follow his company and story with interest. His story is nothing short of miraculous. He basically cured himself of...

Italian Roasted Cauliflower

Since I began roasting cauliflower it has become a weekly vegetable. You can find my go-to recipe here. However, I found that when my main dish had an Italian flare to it, my regular recipe didn't quite fit the bill. So, enter....Italian Roasted Cauliflower. This really isn't much of a recipe at all. I don't measure or anything like that. You can adjust the seasonings as much or as...

It only takes a little forethought in making a marinade. Granted,...

admin July 12, 2013 4 Comments

We always have a couple containers of vanilla flavored coconut milk in the house. I usually buy So Delicious Vanilla Coconut Milk, but lately have purchased a few containers of Silk Pure Coconut Vanilla Coconut Milk. I thought it would be fun to do a comparison. The information is taken from the containers. How they are the same: Both state a serving size is 1 cup, have zero...
