Frozen “Oatmeal”

This idea came to me last week when temperatures reached near 100* here in the Bay Area. It was morning and our house STILL hadn’t cooled off from the day before. I was wanting something hearty yet still cool and somewhat refreshing. I’d also recently bought a new cookbook on smoothies and I had noticed that a ton of the smoothies had nuts added to them, something I had never tried before. The wheels in my head started churning and there you have it! Smoothie and oatmeal? A smoatmeal? That name doesn’t sound too catchy and search engines will shut down if I called it that, so frozen oatmeal it is! A dairy-free, grain-free, delicious, oatmeal substitute.

This is such and easy ad healthy paleo breakfast to start your day. What I like about this over traditional oatmeal is that it won’t spike your blood sugar and I don’t feel hungry shortly after. I usually pair this with a couple of eggs and I stay full until lunchtime. Even better, I never have a problem getting the kids to eat it so I don’t start my day off grumpy and struggling with them. Wins all around people!

    […] 1.  Oatmeal -This is my go-to for races and for cold mornings to get good protein, carbs, and I love that I can add things like chia seeds, flax, almond butter, or almonds to up the nutritional value.  I do quick oats or steel cut.  But once it gets hot, I will switch to “frozen oatmeal” …here’s the recipe and it is delicious – Frozen Oatmeal […]

Obsessed. Let’s talk...🛌🥱 In early 2020 I Obsessed. Let’s talk...🛌🥱In early 2020 I polled my audience because we were on the hunt for a new mattress. You overwhelmingly recommended @avocadogreenbrands. And then we all got locked down and I put our mattress hunt on hold. I bought a cheapie mattress online instead since we couldn’t try things out and none of us had any clue what was happening. Big mistake. HUGE. It was the worst mattress ever. So earlier this year we decided it was time to get a PROPER GROWN UP MATTRESS and went with @avocadogreenbrands.I’m not going to lie, I was a little nervous about ordering online and not being able to “test” it in person. I’m here to tell you it’s one of the best things in my life. It is THE MOST comfortable mattress I have ever laid my pretty little face on. And Brad agrees.Not to mention is green and environmentally friendly.Legit, slipping into bed at night feels like a hug from heaven and I can’t even handle it. I told Brad that, God forbid, we ever divorce I’m taking the mattress with me. So, if you are on the hunt go with @avocadogreenbrands. We went with the Avocado Green mattress with pillow top. And I just looked and they’re having an early cyber/Black Friday Sale. Anyways. Obsessed and eagerly awaiting my next nap. ✌🏼
Gluten-Free Cranberry Bars Personally, one of my Gluten-Free Cranberry BarsPersonally, one of my fave desserts ever is pumpkin pie. I wish it was a year ‘round thing. BUT! If you aren’t pumpkin crazy, not into pies and need something DIFFERENT to bring to Thanksgiving this year, let it be this. Think a lemon bars more festive friend. In fact, it’s great for a Christmas too. It’s available now to my community a the link in my bio. ❤️
