Looking for a sweet treat to end the day but not wanting to negate all your clean eating of the day so far? This is my newest easy creation...YUM!
Whole Grain Dessert
- In a small bowl combine:
1/2 cup cooked cold whole grain (whatever was for dinner or lunch ~ my current fave for this is barley or brown rice)
1/8-1/4 cup skim milk (or sugar-free soy milk) - Warm in microwave for 30 seconds
- Drizzle with 1 tsp of raw honey
It's that simple! I like to make extra of the whole grain I am cooking for dinner to keep in the fridge for lunch the next day in whole wheat wraps or other speedy meals...and now for this yummy dessert too!
We have been told all of our lives that carrots are good for us. Why? One main reason, beta-carotene. It is an anti-oxidant which fights free radicals than can lead to cancer, heart disease, and macular degeneration. Not only that, it helps improve vision! Lucky us, the beta-carotene is more easily absorbed by the body when the carrots are cooked...enter Carrot "Cake" Muffins!
One of my favourite meals is homemade soup. It is perfect after a good play in the rain or snow. It is soothing after a hard day. It seems to have healing powers when fighting a bug. I love it! A particular favourite of mine is Coconut Curry Soup. This recipe came about when I was looking for a new way to use the post-roast-chicken-dinner chicken stock. Now, to be honest, half of the pleasure of making a roasted chicken/turkey dinner, is knowing that for lunch the next day will be this soup!
