These muffins are quick, easy and taste really good. Jordan is back on a grain-free diet to help reduce his eczema and he gave me the thumbs up for these.  The ingredients are: almond flour, coconut flour, baking powder, salt, egg whites, butter, cheese and bacon.  Start by mixing the dry ingredients together in a bowl. Cube the butter and add it to the dry ingredients.  Using a pastry cutter (or your fingers), work ...

These pancakes are grain-free but fluffy and light. My son who should be eating grain-free (due to his ezcema) and who is a fussy eater when it comes to grain-free gave me 2 thumbs up when I made these pancakes.  Ingredients are almond flour, eggs, agave, salt, baking soda and salt.  Separate 3 of the eggs and add the egg whites to a bowl. Beat until soft peak stage.  Add the rest of ...

Some days I'll throw 2 slices of bacon on top of the mashed avo. Its ...

I will always have an excuse to bake because I will always have bananas that way past their eat-by date. Its just the way it is in our house. And I don't mind. Almost every weekend I bake banana bread and the kids consume most of it by the time I bake another one. This time, I thought I'd change it up a little and make citrus banana muffins.     Get ...

I'm always looking for new ways to serve breakfast that include protein but also tastes good.  Grease the cupcake pan. Place a piece of ham into the cupcake pan - it will become like a paper cupcake holder for the egg.  Crack and egg into each of the ham holders.  Cover with a tablespoon of heavy whipping cream.  Season with salt, pepper and other seasoning.  Bake in a 350F oven for 18-20 minutes. Top a ...

Grab a napkin/serviette, ...
