EASY HOMEMADE BREAKFAST

Mornings can get really busy especially during this "Back to School" season

 Not everyone has time to cook and eat a healthy breakfast so this idea is a great solution for keeping it real:  Homemade overnight oats
This is such a delicious and refreshing breakfast to eat especially when it's still hot outside.


  • Get the best oats you can find:  I love this organic blend of oats, grains, and seeds.  It is a tasty blend with great texture.  
  • I also use powdered peanuts: peanuts that have been pressed to extract most of the oil and you are left with a powder.....all it is basically ground peanuts minus their oil.....half the calories of fresh peanuts
  • Use any fresh fruit that is in season
  • Add any kind of milk or nut milk you prefer 
This is my favorite overnight oat recipe:
PB & J Overnight Oats:

  • 1/3 cup oats 
  • 1 tbsp powdered peanuts
  • 1-2 thinly sliced strawberries
  • 1/2 cup any milk you like
  • 1 tbsp dark chocolate chips
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon
  • 1 packet truvia or any natural sugar/sweetener
  • dash of salt 
Mix all ingredients together and let sit in refrigerator overnight
Take out in morning and enjoy

REAL POTATO CHIPS

No need to buy store bought potato chips ever again 🥔 It is so easy and cheap to make your own! Whether you shop at a Farmers Market   (my preference ) or get your potatoes at a grocery store, you are paying so much LESS per pound than buying potato chips pre made in a bag......you are paying for convenience....yes.....but also......fat, LOADS OF salt, preservatives, and chemicals 😝 I keep it real   by controlling the ingredients and what I'm putting into my mouth and body. I buy my potatoes at the local Farmers Market ......honestly, if you have never had a potato fresh from the farm, you MUST!  The taste is SO much better and the end result comes out with so much more flavor than buying at the grocery store!  🍠 I can't stress enough how much more superior the quality of produce and other products you can get at the Farmers Markets 🐔🥚🍎🍒 I clean the potatoes, slice them, and saute with a little oil (flavored is my favorite) and butter (preferably f...

EAT SEASONALLY

Image
It's best to eat seasonally 🌻🍂☔🍀 because you are eating food at it's peak....it's best! When food is at it's peak, it's at it's highest quality.....it's fresher, tastier, more vibrant, and happier 😊 Here's what I am enjoying right now:  I love fresh herbs and greens and eat them as much as I can.  2 of my favorite things to enjoy right now are:  Arugula   and Mint 🍃..... not necessarily together....but hey, why not....you may discover something new 🙌 I love the spicy, crisp bite that Arugula offers.  It's bold flavor can kick up any boring salad 🥗and add a bright new flavor to any sandwich 🥪.  I, sometimes, just eat the leaves on their own because they're so flavorful 😋  If you haven't tried it, you must.....it's a game changer! Mint is something that I grow in my home garden.  It is such a hardy (robust and sturdy) herb that it grows easily with little care and can sustain many conditions.  Adding it to plain water...
