Pomegranate seed tip...

       Buy them now while they are in season...Their season is short..

I will buy MANY ...then I will de-seed them all 

In a freezer bag they go..

And wella....I have pomegranate seeds for most of the year..

LOVE!!

I use them in smoothies all the time

They are so good for us!

Hope you all have a happy, healthy day!

BISOUS!

Pumpkin cranberry whole grain french toast...the taste of fall!

Pumpkin cranberry whole grain french toast...

On weekends I like to make Lou a nice breakfast, this morning I tried a twist on his normal french toast.

He loved it..

Recipe is for one...just double it for more..

1 large egg

1 large egg white

1/4 cup of pumpkin puree ( not pumpkin pie mix)

splash of unsweetened vanilla almond milk

pinch of salt

pinch of pumpkin pie spice mix

pinch of cinnamon

teaspoon of unsalted raw pumpkin seeds

a few cranberries for topping 

1 teaspoon of coconut oil

2-3 pieces of Whole grain cranberry bread (usually this time of year your grocery stores bakery will have this available...if not look in the package bread area...just watch for trans fat..

In a small bowl whip the egg and egg white together

Add the pumpkin puree and almond milk..... stir together

Add the salt, pumpkin pie mix and cinnamon...stir

Coat your bread well with mixture by soaking each piece ...allowing it to absorb some of the mixture.

In a pan melt coconut oil

Place your coated bread into the pan and cook ...careful not to burn...:))

When done....stack each piece putting just a dab of butter ( I use a product called MELT made with coconut oil)

sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and cranberries 

I used 1 tablespoon of real maple syrup over the top.

Enjoy!

Lou thought these were a great alternative to regular french toast...I think I'll try something with pancakes next..

Hope you all have a wonderful day...Leave a comment for me so I know you are enjoying these healthy "real" food recipes.

Be well!

Healthy Ice Cream....

Healthy Ice Cream

I love ice as much as the next person does...but we all know it is not a healthy snack...

So... why not make our own :))

There are many recipes out there ...I have tweaked it to my liking..

The recipe:

One frozen banana (sliced, always peel your banana before freezing)

3 ice cubes made from light coconut milk ( from the can, make sure they are frozen before making)

Throw both in a food processor ( blender will not do)

Process until the consistency of soft serve ice cream ( no lumps)

Throw a few chocolate chips in the shoot just before done

(If you need help with this I have a video called "who needs the ice cream man") 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYscIynWoUs

Put in a nice serving dish ( or not)

top with a FEW chocolate chips

A tasty healthy ice cream..

I have more recipes that I will share for ice cream if I get enough response.

Enjoy

Banana Coconut Hot Oats...they don't have to be boring!!

Creamy Banana Coconut Hot oats...

I am not a fan of Oatmeal...but when you dress it up (in a healthy way) it is delicious...

I hope you will try this yummy recipe

1/3 cup of Oats

1/3 cup coconut water

2/3 cup of  unsweetened Coconut milk 

1/2 ripe banana 

1 Tablespoon Chia seeds

pinch of salt

1 teaspoon vanilla

In a pan mix oats, coconut water and milk

While waiting for mixture to boil...take half of the halved banana and mince it

when mixture starts to boil add the minced banana

with a whisk whip mixture...(constantly)

add the chia seeds and vanilla (continue to cook and stir for remaining time..5 minutes)

place in a pretty bowl...:))

add toppings...

1 Tablespoon almond butter

shaved unsweetened coconut 

raw cacao

 the rest of the banana..

These Oats will not be thick...the banana gives them a creamy texture!

According to "my fitness pal"...this has about 400 calories (good calories)

I believe breakfast is the most important meal of the day.

I also like to eat the majority of my calories early....I burn them off throughout the day!

Of course you can cut the calories by using a 1/2 T of Almond butter, using water instead of coconut water...

Kids will love this...Lou loves them too!

Let me know what you think...will you try them?

If you like these kinds of recipe ideas....let me know in the comment section..

Have a happy healthy day!
