Day 6...officially caught up!

Hmmm....woke up with a determination to not eat eggs again for breakfast. I needed something to resemble a pancake- stat. So.....stumbled across this blog (balancedbites.com) and found a recipe for pumpkin pancakes that are.....drum roll please...gluten free, sugar free, dairy free, nut free and badonka donk free! woo hoo! I kinda played with the recipe. I also played with the topping. This website has a great book that I just purchased but haven't even read because I have this new found dedication to this blog! It is called Practical Paleo....looks awesome.

2 pumpkin pancakes with blueberry topping, gf bacon, fried egg

 

For the topping:

 

1 cup of frozen blueberries

2 tbs coconut butter

1 teas cinnamon

1 teas vanilla

1 teas coconut oil

 

Place all ingredients in a small sauce pan. Simmer until everything blends together and the fruit is soft and sweet.

 

Now of course you are thinking...how does this get better? Well...this also happened ( pardon the sloppy picture)

 

PBJ Pumpkin Pancake ( added sunflower seed butter and blueberry mixture) SO GOOD!

 

 

it does kinda look gross because I just put it on my egg plate but whatever.

Lunch

 

 Left over gumbo with cauliflower rice. SOOOO good. PaleOMG.com is rocking my world right now.

Dinnner

 

 Pumpkin Chicken Curry with Cauliflower Rice- Again from PaleOMG.com Pretty dang good. I tweaked it based on the ingredients that I had/didn't have.

Dessert...

My trainer said that this is probably better than what we were doing on Sundays but should be a treat once in awhile. Not sure why- he has to explain to me on Tuesday because it is sooo good. You literally just freeze ripe bananas. Pull one out and put in your vitamix or food processor and it will eventually make it's own ice cream! I added sunflower butter and a little dash of coconut milk. Don't judge me by my picture taking abilities...not cool.

Oh and we squeezed in a killer workout today too!
