Makes 12 and these really are amazing breakfast muffins!
This a lazy recipe. I love lazy, quick, convienant, easy recipes that take me under 45 min! So if your looking for vegan, all natural, organic, etc turn back now! Although, these babies are not that unhealthy and pack 200 calories per muffin if you use the regular muffin pan and fill each cup.
Oh did a mention Fibre? Yeah they will help keep you regular 😉
Fibre is excellent for Weightloss as well – I liked this recipe because one muffin kept me full for 3-4 hours.
Okie so step one, find this mix:
I get mine from Winners/ Marshalls because they are always A few dollars cheaper and if they don’t have it than Sobeys should.
Step Two grab some flax or chia, I love ground flax, I just use Redmill because it cooks the best.
Preheat to 350 degrees
I say mostly through because it’s pretty hard to get a full cook through with Gluten Free Muffins without burning them.
PLUS it keeps them moist and yummy!
Hope you enjoy these Fibretastic muffins!!

Mmmmmmm! Nothing better in Spring than some Homemade Apple Crisp with Vanilla Ice Cream!!
I hate wasting food! So I’ve become pretty resourceful when is comes to “recycling” food!
After all, chances are if you made it, hubby is going to eat it! Don’t worry I guarantee this one tastes great!
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
The crisp is just steel cut oats, butter and brown sugar – I never measure but I would estimate:
2 Cups Oats
1 Cup Butter or Margarine
3/4 Cup Brown Sugar
Use half the crisp batter for the bottom of the pie and save the other half for the top.
The filling is any old, soft apples you have and some Freezer or Fresh berries – I used raspberries! Throw them in the
Add in 1 Cup of Butter and simmer on medium heat.
Turn off the burner and stir in 1 tablespoon of vanilla or Vanilla Extract.
Dump the filling on top the crisp base and sprinkle the rest of the crisp batter on top.
NOMZ
Ok now throw that puppy in the oven for 20-30 min – check on it to make sure it doesn’t burn!
Enjoy with Vanilla Ice Cream!!!
So Good!!!
Thanks for stopping by!

I f*cking love lettuce wraps, I crave them a lot but you have to go to a restaurant and spend money to get them. Plus if you are like me and are allergic to more food than not then it’s better to just make your own food porn!
Ingredients
If you don’t have all those ingredients its probably fine, the most important are the chicken, the lettuce and the sauces.
Cook your chicken in some butter or oil with garlic and seasonings
Nom.
Ok now on medium heat roast your pine nuts with a tad of Chipolte Chili Pepper for 1-2 min – DO NOT go overboard with this one because it’s Spicey as F*ck.
While that’s cooking get your lettuce washed and peeled, your green apple chopped or julienne’d, and your lemon halved.
Once chicken is cooked, combine in a heat safe bowl with all the juices and a add sauces (1/2 cup each).
Yummy!
Now assemble your wrap and don’t forget to squirt some lemony goodness on top!
Enjoy!

2 cups GF RedMill Biscuit & Baking Mix
1 Tsp Baking Soda
1 Tsp Salt
1/2 cup RedMill Food Yeast
1/3 cup Chia Seeds
3 cups Oats
1 cup Chocolate Chips
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees
2) Combine Flaxseed Meal and Water in a small bowl and let sit for 3-5 minutes
3) Mix together butter, sugar and eggs until smooth
4) Mix in Flaxseed Meal and Vanilla
5) In a separate bowl, mix together flour, food yeast, baking soda, salt and chia seeds
6) Add dry mix to wet mix and stir well
7) Add oats and chocolate chips
8) Scoop on baking sheet (should make 54)
9) Bake for 12 min
Enjoy!!

Mash it all together and make balls smooshing the mixture in your hand, put in a container and keep in the fridge!
