Banana Walnut Slow Cooker Oatmeal

If you’re not a big oatmeal fan, you may still want to give this recipe a try simply for the heavenly aroma it will fill your kitchen with as it cooks. The spices really take over and smell magnificent! Oven baked and crockpot cooked meals are my favorite this time of year, because of the warmth and comfort they add to our home!

Banana Walnut oatmeal in the crock pot can be put together in a pinch and  Continue reading →

Healthy Egg and Avocado Toast

Here I am at the end of the day writing about the start of my day. Before I get to the very tasty Egg and Avocado Toast, I have to jot down some highlights of my day.

It’s worth a Google search to read the details on the antioxidants, fiber, protein and omega 3 fatty acids they contain and how they promote good health. This pudding recipe was Continue reading →

Baked Oatmeal Casserole

I’m not a big breakfast person in general and people tend to think I’m crazy for not being a fan of pancakes, waffles and donuts! (I know, you probably agree with them :)) However, I do try to eat breakfast each day and I’m always interested when I come across a new idea that would work well to Continue reading →
