Peanut Butter Banana Muffins

Not everything on my blog is just for dinner, or have you already noticed? It is totally possible to snack clean too! Or in this case, I make these for breakfast!

1c All Natural Peanut Butter
2 Large Eggs (or egg substitute for you non eggers)
2 Medium Ripe Bananas
1/2t Baking Soda
1T Vanilla
2T Honey
**optional adding two scoops protein powder (I add this!) or choc chips, raisins or coconut***

Line cupcake tins with cupcake fillers ( I use silicone and love them just wash and reuse)  Preheat oven to 350.
Mash bananas and add/mix all ingredients in a large bowl.
evenly distribute batter in lined pan, cook for 12-18 minutes (depending how fast your oven cooks)

Sugar Free Jam? yes Ma'am!

This can be substituted with any fruit you would like! I've been getting some questions about chia seeds lately and what to do with them. Here is a plan. Also go look up the granola recipe I have on a last post. They are also used as a food that fills you up (it's just a super plus they have major health benefits as well) so toss some in your smoothies. Happy clean cooking❤️

4c berries of choice
2T raw honey
2T chia seeds (soak them in 4T water for 10 minutes)
Pulse in your food processor or blender

Italian Sausage Soup

3c organic chicken broth
3T Italian Seasoning (I get this at costco)
3c water
One white onion chopped
One red and one yellow bell pepper chopped
4-5 cloves garlic
1 head cauliflower  chopped (subbed for rice)
Mushrooms chopped
3 chicken sausage  links  sliced and. cooked (I buy the no nitrate , antibiotic free chicken sausage at costco)
Use a stock pot and cook the sausage almost all the way. Add  garlic and onions for a little but then add liquids and all other ingredients. Bring to a boil for five minutes and then simmer for ten (or until veggies are tender) serve!
**add whatever other veggies you desire!)

Banana Protein Muffins

3c Oat Flour (you can make your own with a food processor, throw about 3.5c in and turn on for about 1 minute)
2t baking soda
1/2t baking powder
1/2t salt
1 1/2T flax seeds
1/2c unsweetened apple sauce
1/4c coconut oil (throw a whole apple and this oil in your FP and Blend if you don't have applesauce on hand)
3 eggs
1/2c honey
2 ripe mashed bananas
1/2c or 3 scoops protein powder (I use total nutrition from Divine Nature)
2t vanilla
2t cinnamon

Preheat your oven to 350. I use silicone muffin containers so no greasing needed and less mess! Mix above dry ingredients first then add wet. Cook for 18-20 minutes

Roasted Vegetable Lasagna

What you will need:
1 eggplant chopped
2 bell peppers chopped
1 onion sliced
3-5 cloves garlic sliced
1c washed mushrooms chopped
1 pkg while wheat Lasagna Noodles (I bought no boil ones at Sprouts)
Sauce of choice (I use a basil marinera from Sprouts)
1c grated ramano cheese
1c finely shredded medium or sharp chedder
2T extra virgin olive oil (or oil of choice)
Cut and dice all veggies: toss in oil dash salt and pepper and roast at 425 for 15 minutes

Then leave the oven on while you layer your sauce, noodles, cheese (both kinds)  and veggies.
Cook covered with foil  (if no boil noodles: this recipe is easier then the one on the box of whole wheat lasagna noodles by far!)  for 35 minutes or until noodles are tender.
