Egg Cups
I love eating eggs as a high-protein breakfast option, but I don’t always have the time to make them before starting my workday. These egg bites require minimal prep and will help you cut down on time during busy mornings.
I love pairing mine with avocado, salsa, and berries for a balanced breakfast that will help keep me fueled throughout the day!
Paleo Pancakes
I posted these high protein, sugar free pancakes to my Instagram stories this morning and was asked several times over for the recipe. So here we are!
Gluten-Free Banana Breakfast Cookies
These hearty banana-sweetened cookies are perfect for a lazy Saturday morning, post-workout snack or lunchbox treat for your kiddo.
Apple & Sweet Potato Bake
I created this recipe because I was in need of healthy snacks to send off to school with Hattie…that didn’t contain nuts. We eat this as a breakfast, dessert, or layered with yogurt for a parfait-style snack. It’s ridiculously easy to make and it’s pretty darn tasty. Enjoy!
Grain-Free Chocolate Chunk Blondie Bread
Just so you know, creating a recipe title is hands down the hardest part of writing a recipe. I don't even know what's happening here. It's a type of bread. But it's not banana bread or zucchini bread or pumpkin bread. It's good. And there's a whole can of beans in there, so that's pretty tricky, no?
Low-Sugar Granola
Typically when I make granola, I use maple syrup or honey as the sweetener. You don't necessarily NEED a sweetener for taste, but it does help to keep the granola stuck together (and who doesn't love those big granola chunks and clusters?). In an effort to eat less sugar, I wanted to craft a granola that didn't use any sweetener.
Savory Turkey Sausage
If you're into batch cooking, these are a great thing to make up in the beginning of the week. You can make in bulk and even freeze some. Serve with roasted veggies for a savory egg-free breakfast, or top a large lunch salad with a few.
Kid-Friendly Real Food Muffins for Busy Moms
These muffins are great for adults and kiddos alike.
Grain-Free Porridge
Toddlers. Eye roll. They go through some weird food phases, huh?
A while back the Hattster decided she wasn't really into veggies anymore. Such a flip flopper, that one. Luckily for me, she'll eat just about anything if it's covered in cinnamon (kid loves the stuff—she walks around smelling like a graham cracker despite never eating one in her life). So I pulled this gem of a recipe out of my back pocket and started making it on the reg.
Frankie Says: Eat This Apple Bake for Breakfast
Want a healthy way to start your Christmas Day? Make this apple bake for breakfast if you have holiday guests staying with you. Or even if you don't. I can't get enough of it lately!
Mixed Grain Granola
Granola is one of my all-time favorite snack foods. Unfortunately, a lot of store-bought granola is loaded with sugar and refined oils. Luckily, it's SO easy to make your own at home. Usually I use rolled oats when making granola, but since they've been giving me wicked heartburn lately, I branched out to other grains. So glad I did, because this mixture was delicious!
