Since I'm On a Recipe Kick...

Here are a few fun, yummies that have been happening in the Moss household.


Cinnamon Vanilla Protein Oatmeal Pancakes:

I think pancakes are a once in a while thing and when we make them, we pack them with a ton of goodness to make them better for you. (They also don't make you feel so ick.)

1/2 c pancake mix
1 c oatmeal
1-2 spoonfuls vanilla protein powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tbsp flax seed
1-2 bananas (optional)
1/4 c berries (optional)
1 c milk or water

Prepare just like regular pancakes. If it's a special day, Isaiah will get a little syrup but they don't need it. They're very sweet on their own. They're also VERY filling. I gave Darren two the other day (he can usually throw down at ihop) and he looked at me like, "Are you putting me on a diet?" But he was totally stuffed. You can also freeze and toast later for a quick breakfast.


Killer Dave's French Toast

Ever had Killer Dave's bread from Costco? You should. It's so good and good for you. It's one of those "loaded" breads and Isaiah likes it with a little butter for breakfast. One thing Isaiah won't eat is eggs. It's so odd. I love eggs. I ate them pregnant and nursing so I figured he'd like them too (like almost everything else I eat). No such luck...so far. So I decided to make French toast in an attempt to just get him to consume them. Success!

2-4 slices Killer Dave's bread
2 eggs
1 tsp cinnamon

Scramble eggs and cinnamon, dip bread, and pan fry in coconut oil. Serve with fruit and cream cheese (yum!) or syrup if it's a special day. Isaiah calls these pancakes too. :)

Isaiah's Morning "Coffee"

I get asked how I usually give Isaiah his vitamins, etc. Here's his recipe while I drink my morning coffee:

1% milk
1 dropper full multi-vitamin
1 drop fluoride
1 tsp Barley Life
Small splash of vanilla creamer (optional...it masks the strong Barley flavor)

Sausage, Peppers, Zucchini, and Ricotta Crock Pot Pasta

1 package Italian sausage (cut up)
1 green pepper (sliced)
1 red pepper (sliced)
3 small zucchinis (cut up)
1 container (like 15 oz) Ricotta
3 Tbsp pesto

Throw in crock pot for 3 hrs on high. Serve with bow tie pasta. Yum!

There Is Enough Time

When I became a new mom of two, my mom gifted me a book she read when she became a mom called 'There is Enough Time.' It was really old, an "original." It was written in the fifties is what I'm saying. I read most of it and nodded my head in a agreement a few times but mostly, it felt so irrelevant. Raising kids in the 50's was very different than it is now. But here's what I've noticed since I've been holed up with my kids for the last two weeks (yep, tonight is my 14 day mark), there is enough time. It's been forced upon us, yes. Something we Americans don't like - how dare the government tell us what to do? (gasp!) - it's like we got grounded because the neighborhood bully got us in trouble. But when all the "fun stuff" got canceled - the sports, the plays, the parties, the people - we were forced to reevaluate our days. It turns out, when you have nowhere to go there is enough time. Enough time to dance, to go on fam...

20 Meals for $200

Good Evening! World's worst blogger here. (Seriously. I will never be consistent here, folks.) But I have some meal prepping for you: 20 meals for less than $200. I'm not sure the exact amount because I bought groceries for the week and a year's supply of baking ingredients (for all the Christmas goodies) and frankly, I don't want to do the math. But it's definitely in the just under $200 ball park. Let's get started... Menu | Simple Spaghetti & Meatballs Tuscan Chicken Cajun Smoked Sausage & Rice Pulled Pork Pork Tacos Teriyaki Salmon Vegetarian Chili Chuck Roast Winger's Chicken and Waffles Southwest Chicken Y'all. These are the most simple meals to throw together. Because Christmas. And I'm not going to busy myself being extra when I want to enjoy the holidays. It took me about an hour. Grocery List | 2 packages of spaghetti noodles 2 packages of rigatoni 1-2 cartons of broth (this is to add to the meals when cookin...
