When I bake with pumpkin, it usually happens that the recipe calls for most of the pumpkin that is in the can, but not all of it (such as in Pumpkin Cookies). The first time I figured what’s an extra 1/3 cup or so, and dumped the whole can in. Yah… That didn’t work out so well (think extra mushy lol)! …
Frittata
This is a favourite of mine – either as a brunch or quick dinner… So yum! While I recognize as a nutritionist that eggs don’t work for everyone -for those who can / do eat eggs, they are often a convenient go-to option to have and this frittata is a really tasty way to whip them up. Makes 4 servings. Ingredients 1-2 …
Savoury Zucchini Pancakes
Happy Pancake Day! Seriously, it’s pancake day – or Shrove Tuesday / the first day of lent, celebrated in some countries by eating pancakes – yes Easter is almost here (if you count 6 weeks away as almost here) and I already missed Valentines Day so lets just eat pancakes! I celebrated with these savoury zucchini pancakes. Don’t get me wrong, …
Chocolate Gingerbread Granola
Voila – a great idea for a festive Christmas morning breakfast (um, sans candy cane of course – or not, haha!). This Chocolate Gingerbread Granola is absolutely delicious. I’ve got a few favourite breakfast staples – and between all the oatmeals, frittatas, pancakes, scrambled eggs and smoothies is GRANOLA (granola makes me feel hippyish too, why do I think that’s cool?!!). I gave this …
Almond Berry Breakfast Shake
This is a higher protein version of one of my 5-Day KickStart shakes (the KickStart Cleanse utilizes only whole foods, no powders or nutritional supplements). It’s still rich in vitamin E (key nutrient to help build a strong immune system and healthy skin) from the almond butter and anthocyanins (potent antioxidant) from the berries. A perfect way for any runner to start …
Buckwheat Granola
This granola is rich in seeds that provide amazing nutrients such as magnesium, zinc, vitamin E and omega-3 fatty acids. Buckwheat is completely gluten-free and a great tasting alternative to the many gluten-containing grains. If you want to add the raw cacao powder, you’re adding a hit of iron, magnesium and a good dose of antioxidants – specifically flavonoids called flavanols, …
Coconut Pancakes (gluten-free)
This is a gluten-free pancake recipe that easily rivals any traditional pancake recipe! While I try to stay away from wheat altogether (it’s been repeatedly hybridized and is usually over-processed), I don’t mind using spelt flour in recipes. However, this recipe tops any spelt versions I’ve tried, so it’s my staple post-long run brunch on the weekend. Serves 4 (about …
