Not food related- Foaming Hand Soap!

Author:

Posted: October 25, 2012

I know this isn’t food, but it is health related and so easy! I had to share! We go through soap pretty fast at our office so I decided we needed a better way then to keep buying it by the bucket. I found an article about using castile soap in tons of different ways and so I tried it for our hand soap (also just made homemade laundry detergent and shampoo!) Ready for this? So so easy! I bought a foaming hand soap dispenser at Bed, Bath and Beyond, for $8 with my handy 20% off coupon 🙂 Then […]

Blueberry Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

Blueberry Quinoa Breakfast Bowl

#3 breakfast bowl! Yay! I’m on a roll. Quinoa is AWESOME! It is grain like but it is actually a seed, so it passes for a gluten free diet. It is also very versatile, it can be eaten hot or cold and for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It works best for you to soak it first to make it more digestible. I suggest soaking for at least a couple of hours or overnight. It’s also a good idea to then strain and rinse the quinoa because it has a coating on the outside called saponin which can give it a […]

Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding

Chia Seed Breakfast Pudding

Who says that breakfast has to always be cereal or eggs?? Breakfast is one of my favorite meals of the day and I always enjoy making breakfast bowls for my family. They are quick and easy to prepare and can be done the night before. You can always mix it up depending on the fruit that is in season. Chia seeds soaked the night before in the almond milk also make a nice pudding consistency…the longer you soak them the more thick it becomes. There are also many health benefits to incorporating chia seeds into your diet (weight loss, omega […]

Almond Cinnamon Sweetbread

Almond Cinnamon Sweetbread

Almond meal out the wahzoo around here! If you make your own almond milk then you know what I mean. I will try to use it in crackers or cookies…mostly cookies 🙂 But I have decided to try to use it in any recipe calling for almond flour and just do half almond pulp and half almond flour depending on what the recipe calls for. So my first attempt was with a recipe adapted from Elana’s Pantry for a paleo breakfast bread. . It turned out perfect! We ate it all up, and it was delicious! So here is the […]
