Paleo Zucchini Bread

Ingredients:

1 cup (approx 1 small or 3/4 medium) shredded zucchini

4 Eggs

3 T honey or pure maple syrup

1 mashed banana

1 T (melted) coconut oil

1/2 cup Coconut Flour

3/4 t Baking Soda

1/2 t Salt

1 T Cinnamon

1/2 t All Spice

1 t Apple Cider Vinegar

1/2 cup Walnuts (optional)

Directions:

1) Preheat oven to 350 degrees and grease a loaf pan with coconut oil (I like Trader's Joe's Coconut Oil Spray)

2) Shred zucchini. Wrap in a towel or several paper towels and squeeze out excess water. Set aside.

3) In a large bowl, mix together the eggs, banana, coconut oil and honey or syrup (I used both because I did not have enough honey).

4) Add coconut flour (I like Coconut Secret brand), baking soda, salt, cinnamon, all spice and zucchini. Mix well.

5) Add Apple Cider Vinegar and Walnuts. Mix until smooth.

6) Pour into loaf pan and bake at 350 for 40-50 minutes (until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean)

7) Enjoy!

This recipe could also be made into muffins instead of a loaf, just reduce cooking time.

I absolutely LOVE this bread! It is super moist and has good flavor. It's even Toddler-Approved! :)

Paleo Pancakes TWO Ways!

I have always been a breakfast eater but never really a pancake eater. I LOVE eggs, potatoes and french toast. Mmm Mmm. :) However, when I was pregnant with my son I craved pancakes like it was my job. Luckily for me, my husband is a fantastic pancake maker. I mean, seriously, he does not cook, like evverrr. But that man, boy he can make amazing pancakes and omelets....breakfast is definitely his forte...at least in the kitchen. But, sadly once lil man was born, the pancake-making stopped but my craving and love for pancakes did not. So, here we are over two years later, still loving pancakes. And believe it not, lil man loooooooves breakfast. It's the one meal I can count on him eating and loving 100% of the time. We usually have pancakes at least once a week. So, naturally, I had to move on from Aunt Jemima and Hungry Jack to something a little yummier and a lot healthier.

Fall is Here!

Fall is officially here...and I guess it has been for about a month now but I have been busy and haven't had an opportunity to blog about my enthusiasm for fall! Haha Fall is one of my favorite times of the year! I love the feeling of fall, the smells of fall, the colors of fall, the changes of fall, the decorations of fall (can you say "Pumpkins"?!), and of course the cuisine of fall! Fall makes me want to eat nothing but comfort food. Why? Because it's warm and cozy! One of my favorite things to make during fall is homemade soup! Unfortunately, my dear husband is not a fan of soup so I try to make it when I know he isn't going to be home. A Couple weekends ago, he opened AND closed the golf course that he works at so he was gone all day. And I took advantage of it! Not only did I clean the house and work on Baby M's room, I made soup and started re-watching one of my favorite shows on Netflix--LOST. Here is the delicious, warm, spicy soup that I thoroughly e...
