I heart IHOP and Paleo Pancakes

Healthy Pancakes?! Yes, healthy pancakes and no you can't tell the difference between these and regular SAD (standard american diet) pancakes. I make a stack of these during meal prep so I can munch on these for breakfast as I'm running out the door, or dip 'em in peanut butter for a pre-workout snack...mmmm, peanut butter, the stuff dreams are made of. There are so many ways to make these pancakes absolutely rock! Here's the simple recipe I use.

2 medium bananas
1 scoop Protein (I used Hemp Protien and it has an earthly taste, feel free to use a flavored protien powder)
2 eggs
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 oats (rolled oats ground into flour I add oats for some carbs, but you can just leave it out or add another banana if its not thick enough)

Mix well in a blender until the consistency is smooth and easy to pour like pancake batter.
Cook on stovetop, flipping once the batter starts to bubble.
Top with nuts, peanut butter, organic honey, fruit, coconut flakes, you name it!

Happy Weekend

Hello there, I hope everyone had a lovely week and is revving up for an amazing weekend! I had a full morning of meetings and interviews then a lovely late lunch at Lupe Tortilla with a skinny margarita and lettuce wrapped fajitas. I was in heaven. The patio was bustling with trays of sizzling fajitas, hand shaken margaritas, and a fire pit nearby. I might as well have been eating on the beach Once the margarita hit the table, I felt like I was instantly transported to a beach side cabana. I love me some fajitas and ritas :) This weekend my sister is coming into town for a visit. I'm so excited! Can't wait to catch up over a glass of wine. I may be fit, but wine is definitely in my diet right now. :)  Happy Weekend everyone! Enjoy yourself--you've earned it!

Strawberry Fields Forever

Have you ever picked your own strawberries? As a kid growing up in Germany, we would take school trips to the strawberry fields and pick baskets of strawberries. There were rows and rows of big, red juicy strawberries ripe for the picking and eating. :) We'd fill up our little baskets till our fingers were stained pink. By the time we reached the end of the row, we'd have eaten almost as many berries as we picked and have to start again. Its been years since then and thankfully, my baby found a farm near the house where we could pick our own berries. How fun! I felt like a kid again, hunting for the juiciest berries and leaving the little ones to grow. Together we harvested a hardy basketful for dessert--perfect for a frozen yogurt topping. Do Tell...... Where do you pick your strawberries? What's your favorite way to eat strawberries?
