Mexican Eggs Benedict

If I am going out for breakfast or Sunday brunch, the first thing my eyes search for is the keyword: benedict. I’m obsessed with the concept of having a carb, piece of meat, poached egg, creamy hollandaise sauce, and fun toppings all on one fork and for every bite. Talk about an explosion of flavors!

So why wait for the next brunch invitation when you can make eggs benedict at home! And sure, you can totally make the American classic eggs benedict which consists of two halves of an English muffin, each topped with Canadian bacon, a poached egg, and hollandaise sauce OR… you can make it my way = the spicy, healthy, and fun way!

5-Ingredient Banana Bread Muffins

It’s no secret that I absolutely love banana bread! *Cough Paleo Banana Nut Bread and Brownie Batter Banana Bread Muffins.

WIth that said, I am completely unapologetic as I whipped up yet another banana bread recipe - banana bread muffins!

This was a fun recipe to create as I had my niece and nephews in mind. Like most parents, mornings feel rushed so I wanted to create a recipe that my sister could make ahead of time so that first thing in the morning, she can warm up or serve cold these muffins with a small pad of butter and eggs on the side and serve it to the kiddos!

Strawberry Banana Egg White Oatmeal

If you have been following our blood sugar week on Instagram, you might have noticed that my #1 advice when it comes to fighting sugar cravings is creating a well balanced meal! Protein and fat are the most satiating macronutrients, and oftentimes people turn to sugar simply because they’re hungry or it’s readily available.

Protein and fat are the best ways to curb hunger in general, and if you’re full, you are less likely to crave sugar as often. Oftentimes, my clients find that when I tell them to eat more protein and fat during the day (especially at breakfast), they don’t struggle with sugar cravings at night.

Starting your day off with a high-carb meal or a meal that is too low in calories can lead to wanting a big meal at night, late-night sugar cravings, or creating irregular meal patterns.

Cinnamon Apple Streusel Muffins

The story behind these bad boys was that I wanted to create a lazy version of apple pie. After all, apple pie should only be eaten if it’s homemade and preferably made by a grandmother. But if you are strapped for time and there’s not a grandma insight, well, sometimes you just have to think outside the box.
