Honey Bran Pancakes/Donuts

This morning before Jack and I hit the gym to get our cardio in, I needed to feed  the kids. Nicholas has been asking for pancakes for the past couple days and I haven't had any on hand, so this morning I was on a mission and creative this yummy masterpiece.

I did take a bite to make sure they were good and OMG! AMAZING!!!! It was like a Mimi's muffin in pancake and donut form.  I just used my mini donut maker to make donuts with half the batter and pancakes with the other half. 

Ingredients:
3/4 cup brown rice flour
1 1/4 cups oat bran
1 1/2 tsp. baking powder
1 1/2 tsp. baking soda
2 tsp. cinnamon
3 egg whites
1 1/2 cups milk (I used an almond coconut blend)
4 tbs pure honey
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract

Directions:
Mix the milk, eggs, honey and vanilla and set aside. Whisk together the dry ingredients. Add the milk and egg mixture and whisk to combine. 

In a medium sized skillet over medium-low heat, pour 1/4 cup batter and cook for 1-2 minutes until golden on one side. Flip pancake and cook until lightly browned on both sides. Serve with the toppings of your choice. Enjoy!

Spaghetti Squash with Southwest Chicken

Image
After years of cooking and sharing recipes, I have finally put together my blog site. Its been a long journey in cooking for friends and family. It wasn't until recently that I was given the confidence to actually create a blog and share everything I have learned and am still learning in the kitchen. I recently was given the opportunity to air on live tv with Good Day Sacramento.  It was quite the experience. Friends and family told me I was a natural on tv, but what they didn't see on tv was how extremely nervous me. My mom and my husband were there calming me down.  After each take, I would let out a big "Whew" and ask how I did.  Apparently my nervousness did not show when the camera was rolling. Thank Goodness! I would like to share the recipe of my dish on Good Day Sacramento with all of you. Spaghetti Squash is that ingredient that we all seem to forget about. It's amazing and very good for you to eat. I think when people look at a spaghetti squash, ...

Mommy's Yummy Lunch Salad

Image
I don't always have time to make a gourmet lunch for myself, but sometimes my kiddos nap around the perfect time and I am able to whip something yummy up. I try and eat healthy during the day because with all this baking I do, I could definitely just give into to the temptation to eat an entire batch of sweets, but luckily I have good self control and don't eat it all. Today I wanted to make myself a salad, but I wanted a little carbs too and luckily I had some quinoa I had cooked already and I could just throw it in the salad. It was a yummy salad and hit the spot. Ingredients: 4 assorted baby bell peppers, sliced 1 yellow onion, sliced 4 mushrooms, sliced 1 tbs olive oil 2 tbs balsamic vinegar 2 morning star vegan burger patties, cooked and cut into cubes (I like the black bean burgers best) 1 slice swiss cheese, cubed 1 head romaine lettuce, chopped 1/4 cup cooked quinoa Directions: In a large skillet, warm olive oil over medium heat. Add onions, mushrooms,...

Turkey Stroganoff with Homemade Egg Noodles

Image
As I sat on the couch this morning trying to figure out what to make for dinner, I got up and looked in the freezer to see what kind of meat I should thaw out... I feel like I'm always cooking chicken breasts, so I grabbed the ground turkey and decided I would make something with this.   Stroganoff is one of my favorites and Jack loves the Hamburger Helper one, so I decided to make stroganoff from scratch. It was amazing. I made homemade noodles to go with it that were even more delicious. I could've just eaten a plate of noodles they were so good.     Ingredients 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil ½ cup chopped yellow onion 4 ounces mushrooms, sliced 1½ pounds ground turkey 2 Tb red wine ¾ cup beef broth ¾ cup milk 1 teaspoon dried mustard 1 pound egg noodles, boxed or homemade: (Homemade Egg Noodle Recipe) 2 tablespoons unsalted butter 1 cup sour cream Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper Chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garni...
