Full of fall deliciousness. This healthy smoothie has all the flavors of apple pie but no added sugar, full of protein, metabolism boosting cinnamon and heart healthy oats. Plus fiber to keep you full longer. Great as a pre or post workout smoothie.
Just in time for the weekend, my Leveled Up Pancakes. Super simple and super easy. All you need is your favorite pancake mix and a little magic. I think Pamela’s is the best gluten free pancake mix. Fluffy pancakes without the rice flour taste ( you know what I mean). I had some Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate chips on hand so I threw those in but these would still be delicious without. PB2 is powdered peanut butter and is amazing in smoothies and baking so definitely worth making a pantry staple. I had coffee creamer leftover from the holidays so it added some depth of flavor. You could always stick with unsweetened almond milk or whatever flavor creamer you enjoy. All you need is a little creativity and some simple substitutions to take a box mix to the next level. Added bonus, these are gluten-free and vegan, but taste like happy, yummy, Sunday Morning pancakes.
This cheese spread is so good! A little bit of zip, creamy and cheesy. Great for sandwiches or as a veggie dip.
1/2 cup of soaked cashews
1 TBS Lemon Juice
1 1/2 TBS Nutritional Yeast
1 TBS Coconut Oil
1 1/2 TSP Chili Powder (or more to taste)
1 TSP Italian Herb Blend (dried)
Salt
UnSweetened Non-Dairy Milk (I used Almond)
Place all ingredients in a high speed blender, start with a tablespoon milk, blend, add more milk until desired consistency.
Asparagus Tomato Sandwich
Toast gluten-free bread. Spread cheese spread on each slice. Saute asparagus and green bell pepper in coconut oil over med-high heat for a couple minutes to lightly cook but retain slight crunch. Add tomato, salt and pepper. For non-vegan add salmon.
