Baked banana crunch oatmeal



A great recipe for a cold, winter morning. Especially great for those mornings when you are in a rush. I popped this in the oven and by the time I was ready to head out the door the dish was ready to devour!

2 cups oats (groats/rolled/steel cut)
1.5 cups nutmilk (I love almond and coconut)

Soak these two items together overnight in the fridge. In the morning set the oven to 350F and then add the following:
2 bananas, sliced
2 organic eggs
1 heaping spoon of coconut oil 
Cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, sea salt
Garnish with rapadura or sweetener of your choice. If using honey wait to add until after you bake as honey is therapeutic when eaten raw. Also, you can omit the sweetener as the milk and bananas give the dish a splash of sweet. 

Bake for 35 minutes ( got in the shower at this point!) 

Remove from the oven and top with nutmilk and honey or eat as it is.

My tummy is warm and my heart is full after a bowl of this breakfast treat! Can't wait for leftovers tomorrow!

Greek tacos with tsaziki, vegan optional and gluten free





These are so simple!

Coconut oil for frying
Tsaziki sauce (yogurt, garlic, dill, cucumber)
Avocado/hazelnuts and sea salt for a lovely garnish

1. Mix flour and soda water together. Add spices if you wish. I added cumin.
2. Fry with coconut oil about 1 minute per side over medium heat.
3. Make tsaziki sauce as you wish.
4. Add remaining garnishes. 

Next time I will add red bell pepper too. Such a simple dish and delicious to boot!
Happy Monday!
