Banana Pancakes
1 banana, 1 egg, and oil for cooking
Mash banana until it is smooth as possible (a few lumps is
okay). Add desired flavoring if available (vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, etc). Mix in
egg with banana. Cook in a meduim heat pan until golden brown, about a minute on each side.
Enjoy!
The trick with this recipe is to make the night before so it's
ready in the morning. Perfect for a busy day! Cover 1/2 cup of oats into 1 cup milk and
refridgerate overnight. Top with fruit, peanut butter, chocolate, or mix with protein powder
for a well-balanced meal.
A simple and savory breakfast. Toast bread and place cut or
mashed avocado on top of toast. Poach eggs by placing eggs into a pot of near boiling water
(at least 4" deep) w/a half TSP of vinegar (it helps to keep egg in its shape). Cook eggs
for 3-4 minutes. Place poached egg on top of avocado toast.
Cut sweet potato into bite sized pieces and bake in oven at 350
for about 20 minutes. Take out of oven and let cool. While baking, cook 1/2 cup quinoa on a
medium hot pan with 1 cup water until soft. Let cool once finished. Prepare salad by mixing
in spinach with arugula. Cut desired amount of strawberries into slices. Cut one apple into
slices as well. Once sweet potato and quinoa are cooled, add to your serving bowl first.
Then place green mix on top, following with fruits and seeds.
Tortilla, spinach, hummus, bell pepper, chicken or lunch meat
Start by cutting up bell peppers into slices, make sure they
will fit into the tortilla. Spread a layer of hummus onto the tortilla and place spinach,
bell pepper, and cooked chicken or lunch meat on tortilla. Wrap. Done!
Peel and cut up bananas into slices and place into freezer
until completely hardened. Take the frozen bananas and place into a blender with a splash of
milk or water. Blend until smooth. A healthy alternative to ice cream!
Set oven to 350 degrees. Cut sweet potato in halves and cover
in oil and seasonings (salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder). Season chickpeas as well.
Place sweet potato and chickpeas in oven-safe pan and cook for around 20-25 minutes. Mash
center of sweet potato a bit and place chickpeas on top of sweet potato. Garnish with
parsley and ranch, if desired.
Kale leaves, oil, nutritional yeast (for cheesy flavor)
Set oven to 350 degrees. Cut kale leaves into small bite sized
pieces (no stem). Make sure kale pieces are dry. Lightly coat in oil and add seasoning of
choice (garlic powder/salt/nutritional yeast). Bake for 10-15 minutes.
