Cinnamon Apple Baked Oatmeal
Whole Wheat Toast w/Peanut Butter, Banana & Honey
Blueberry Peachy Lemon Smoothies
Ham, Cheese Egg Cupcake
Cinnamon Apple Baked Oatmeal: The secret ingredients for this incredible oatmeal bake is Coconut Milk. It adds a creaminess to this breakfast and a great flavor. If you don’t like coconut milk you can use almond milk or regular 2% milk. Instead of using an 11×13 pan I used a smaller casserole dish which made it thicker. I changed the cooking time to almost an hour and 15 minutes. It turned out fabulous!! Instead of apples you can use peaches, blueberries, cherries…whatever is fresh is always the best!!
Whole Wheat Toast w/Peanut Butter, Banana & Honey Using an organic, crunchy peanut butter is the healthiest choice for this recipe because it cuts down on the simple sugar. You can sweeten it with honey instead. My son’s favorite fruit is banana. But you can also use apples.
Blueberry Peachy Lemon Smoothies Frozen blueberries is the trick in making this smoothie because then it is not watered down with ice cubes. I used blueberries and peaches but you can use bananas instead. A little squeeze of lemon juice adds a great freshness to your smoothie.
Ham, Cheese Egg Cupcake: A perfect gluten free dessert packed with protein…my daughter’s favorite. She loves these egg cupcakes with green pepper and onion. You can also use mushrooms, broccoli, zucchini, tomatoes, bacon, sausage…!
