Blueberry, Banana Oatmeal Bake


There are a lot of baked oatmeal recipes floating out there and this the version I made. It's basically modified from what a bunch of other recipes are but I changed it up based on what I had on hand. It is really good - tastes and smells like banana bread and is full of fiber and antioxidants so it's actually filling. It's also made from cheap ingredients so it's a very inexpensive way to feed a crowd.

{Pairs well with coffee and Sunday mornings.}

Recipe |

3 cups oats
3/4 c brown sugar
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon

Mix. Put half of the mix on a greased baking pan. Layer with two sliced bananas and 1/2 cup blueberries. Sprinkle second half on top.

2 1/2 cups milk
2 eggs
2 Tbsp melted butter

Whisk together and pour over dry mixture. Bake uncovered for 40 minutes at 350. (10 minutes before it's done, sprinkle a little extra brown sugar on top for added crunch and sweetness.)

30 Gluten-Free Crock Pot Meals that Won't Break the Bank

In honor of my dad, this round of crock potting is gluten-free. Over the summer my dad was diagnosed with Celiac Disease and when I found out, I cringed for him. My dad, like me, loves food - all kinds of food but especially pastas, pizzas, bread. How on earth could we take out so many delicious foods that fall under the category of "gluten" and still be satisfied? Apparently it's not as hard as I thought. These recipes are REALLY good, completely satisfying, super easy, and very affordable. I did 30 meals for $168 (this includes a strainer I needed plus disposable trays for the two freezer meals). Keep in mind these recipes are NOT Paleo or AIP. They are simply GLUTEN FREE. That also doesn't mean fat-free or calorie-free. Sorry, folks! ;) You also won't find any cream of whatchamacallit or seasoning packets. Not because I'm completely opposed to them (though I do know they are highly processed and not good for us), but because most, if not all of them...

Am I pregnant or stupid?

I've read stories about people getting the "pregnant stupids" and while I think they're hysterical, I think I've got them...bad. All the time. Every day. My guess is that because I lucked out with morning sickness (or lack of), God decided to turn me into an idiot. Case in point. Thursday afternoon, I drove all the way home from work (about 20 minutes) only to realize I forgot my work keys, which I needed to open the office the next morning. So I had to rush back to work before my co-worker left at 5 p.m. to grab them. She looked at me like I was crazy. I told her I was. Then when I got home, Darren and I were going to meet my aunt and uncle and cousins downtown for dinner. So we rushed off to dinner and as soon as we hit the busy grid of downtown, I realized, I FORGOT MY PHONE. This would be OK any other day except for the fact that 1) I was the only one that had any of their phone numbers and 2) We didn't even designate a spot to meet - we were just going to...

A Prayer For You

Last Sunday, Pastor Carlton did a child dedication and one of the things he asked the parents to do was come up with a bible verse they'd like to dedicate to their son and daughter. I cried, of course, but it really got me thinking. What bible verse do I want to dedicate to Isaiah? It didn't take me long to come up with this one because it has meant so much to me during my years of "growing up" not only because of how relevant it feels in almost every situation but because it reminds me of one of the greatest qualities God gives us: HOPE. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future.” Jeremiah 29:11 I don't know what God has in store for Isaiah and no matter how I dream it up in my head, it may never compare to what his reality will be. But I do know it will be great because God is so good and in the hardest of times He can bring out the best in people. So I pray tha...
