Coconut Pancakes

By
Yumm!!

 I have learned a new healthy breakfast recipe which is quickly becoming a staple in our home! A friend gave me the recipe and I have twisted it a little, but still healthy and delicious!

 This recipe makes enough for 1-2 people, depending on how hungry you are! Sorry - I am experimenting with amounts, so play around with the quantities when you are trying these out to your liking.

Coconut Pancakes

1 egg
1 banana
1/4 - 1/2 cup Almond Milk (we like coconut flavoured)
1/4 cup flaked coconut 
1 tbsp ground flax seed
handful oatmeal
1 tsp vanilla extract

Toss all ingredients into Magic Bullet, or other food processor/blender to mix. Coat pan lightly with coconut oil and cook as you would any other pancake. Top with real maple syrup! Keith and I like warming our syrup in the glass bottle :)

Enjoy!

Kellie's Favourite "Treats"

By
As a new mom, having healthy snacks readily available is critical to staying on track with my nutrition. Stocking the fridge with washed and prepped fruits and vegetables are a fantastic way to sneak in a few extra nutrients throughout the day. It is nearly impossible to open your fridge and not grab a freshly washed and picked (off the vine) grape from the container on the middle shelf. Try it. I dare you!   All five recipes! In our home, we also try to have a container of healthy “treats” in the freezer for when we are on the go, to pack in lunches, or when we need a quick and nutritious snack right now! You know what I am talking about. I will often take some time on Sunday (30-60 minutes, depending on how many I am making) to whip up one or two of the recipes below. These are perfect because after they are cut or rolled, they are the perfect bite sized snacks that offer energy and protein! Bonus, they are hubby and toddler approved! Some of my ingredien...

2017 ... Are you ready?!

By
Hello! Yes, things have been a little quiet on the blog, but can you blame me?! Baby snuggles, toddler adventures, and all that comes with the Christmas season. Being a mom of two has been a great journey so far. The image that immediately pops into my head when someone asks how the adjustment from "one to two" is going is the night that Keith was away for work when Mikah was four weeks old. Brooke was having her bedtime snack while Mikah nursed. After Brooke finished her piece of toast, she asked for another. Mikah was mid-feed, but okay..let's do this! Toast made and butter one-handed while not sacrificing the latch. Brooke finishes that piece. "One more please." Are you joking? She's joking right? Nope, a third piece of toast made and buttered with my left hand (I am right handed) all while Mikah continues her feed. I am definitely learning what I am capable of balancing :) Alright, now to 2017! Are you ready?! Jamie and I are PUMPED for resumin...
