Gluten free, sugar free and they can be lactose free too!

3 Tbsp (heaping) of Almond flour

1 tsp of Psyllium flour

2 Tbsp of Avocado oil

1 egg

1/2 tsp of Baking powder and a pinch of salt.

Milk of any kind to thin

Mix together until smooth and no lumps appear. If the mixture is too thick then thin with milk (my preference, but you can use almond milk or any non-dairy milk).

Now heat a skillet and melt 1 Tbsp coconut oil. Spoon the dough in 4 pancakes approximately 2.5-3 inches in diameter, reduce heat and cover. In 2-3 minutes flip them over and cover again. Check for nice golden color. And they are done! Serve with sour cream or yogurt and fresh berries. For non-dairy option use a topping of your choice. They are also good with just some butter.

Enjoy!

Chia Berry Pudding for Breakfast

svetlana — Mon, 08 Mar 2021 22:09:17 +0000

Wow! Easy and nutritious! And tasty! Loads of proteins and fiber! Excellent breakfast!

Do the night before. Fill an 8 oz cup half way with berries (here I used blueberries and blackberries), add 3 hipping teaspoons of chia seeds and top with milk. ANY kind of milk! Stir, then stir again in 30 min (not necessary, but helps for even consistency) and put in the fridge. In the morning you have your breakfast!

And this is another option! Instead of milk use orange juice!

Enjoy your healthy and nutritious low calorie breakfast!

Banana Chocolate Soufflé for Breakfast

No sugar, no dairy! Only eggs and bananas. Ah… and Cacao with nootropic mushrooms. Have you heard of them? What is all the hype about? Well…Functional mushrooms like reishi, cordyceps, turkey tail, chaga and some other can all improve brain power, cognitive function, bring more energy, add in anti aging, just to mention a few benefits. Besides, they have anticancer properties. You can add them to your coffee 7 Sacred Mushrooms Powder (https://amzn.to/3rvFXuP) and smoothies. I use them mixed with cacao in delicious Cocotropic (https://amzn.to/3qwb3RI)

This makes two 6 oz remekins.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

1 egg mix with 1 mashed banana. Add 2 tablespoons of Cocotropic (buy it here https://amzn.to/2O5Lgmx ) and 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Mix well.

Butter bottoms and sides of ramekins and put a circle of parchment paper on the bottoms of each. Divide the mixture evenly between the 2. They will be filled to about 2/3 of the deapth. Place ramekins on a cookie sheet and put in the oven for 15-20 minutes. After that turn them up side down on plates. Serve with sour cream and berries (fresh or frozen, thawed or heated)

Instead of sour cream your can pour melted chocolate on top and sprinkle with chopped nuts – then you will have a healthy dessert!

Enjoy!

Buckwheat Kasha (Russian breakfast hot cereal)

svetlana — Sat, 06 Feb 2021 04:20:04 +0000

Buckwheat is a very nutritious grain even though it is technically not a grain all all. It is seed! It also does not have any association with wheat thus it is gluten free. In some European countries it is considered a medicine and you can buy it at a drugstore! It is very highly praised for its low sugar, high fiber and iron content and other minerals.

1 cup of toasted buckwheat rinse well and add to a medium saucepan. Add 2 cups of water and 1/2 tsp of pink Himalayan salt.

Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat just to simmer and set a timer for 20 min. When the time is up, turn the heat off and let the buckwheat rest for 10 min. Then open the lid and fluff with a fork.

Serve with a generous tbsp of ghee or coconut oil and berries of your choice.

Enjoy!

The next day it can be reheated in microwave or on a frying pan (add ghee or coconut oil if using frying pan)
