Happy Wednesday!! I am beyond ready for this week to be over. It just seems to be crawling by for some reason.
Let’s get the wonderful Jenn’s party started!
For breakfast I was really craving pancakes, but I wanted to use up some of the coconut flour Bestie bought me. Enter in these delicious babies!
Coconut Flour Mini Cakes
makes 8-10 mini cakes
- 3 large eggs
- 4 Tablespoons organic coconut flour
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- stevia
Whip eggs well, then add remaining ingredients. Keep stirring until almost all lumps are removed. Heat pan, then stir again. Batter will be super thick. Pour into pan by tablespoons.
topped with a drizzle of honey and half a naner
So fluffy and delicious!! I love coconut flour because I love the subtle hint of coconut flavoring in each bite. Of course you could easily mask it by adding pumpkin, cocoa powder, or another flavoring, but these are amazing as is!
After breakfast I ran some errands, then came home to get my sweat on
10 in 20 Workout
squats
jump squats
bw lunge
jump lunge
pushups
burpees
high knees
floor jacks
mountain climbers
knee tucks
Do 10 reps of each move. Rest as needed after last move. Do as many sets as you can in 20 minutes.
Simple yet effective. Am I the only one who loves workouts like this?!
Post workout I grabbed lunch
runny egg, spinach, hummus on ww tortilla with grapes
Dinner was super tasty, and an old family recipe. My mom made this dish for me about once a week when I was growing up. It was fun to make it my own!
Mom’s Goulash
-
1/2lb ground turkey
-
1/2 can diced tomatoes
-
1 C cooked elbow macaroni
-
salt, pepper, garlic to taste
Cook turkey until brown. Add remaining ingredients and simmer 15 minutes.
Mom always served hers with garlic toast, but I thought the meal itself was enough. It was nice to share a bit of my childhood with Ninja by making him one of the dishes I used to eat!
Have you ever made a family recipe to share with a non-family member?
okay wow you’re pancakes are PERFECTLY round! haha.. I’m impressed!
Those pancakes sound delicious!!!
nom nom nom
I love simple workouts like that! Definitely writing that one down. And holy cow, you make some of the prettiest pancakes I’ve ever seen! They look like IHOP-perfect pancakes, except with good for you ingredients!
YUM! Those pancakes sound amazing and I’ve had coconut flour sitting in my cabinet for a long time… I need to use it!
Happy WIAW, Kat!
I have still not tried coconut flour! Madness I know! Your pancakes look great too…nice and round
me either girl! we need to jump on the coconut flour lovin’ bandwagon I think!
Seriously girl! I need to get my hands on this coconut flour! WHY HAVEN’T I TRIED IT YET!????
All your eats look so so yummy, especially breakfast! Reading your blog is not helping my hunger one little bit!
Purty pancakes, for reals! And coconut flour is not easy to use without them eggs!! But I bet these taste wonderful. (I rarely succeed making coconut flour pancakes)
I have been obsessed with coconut flour lately!!! You should try mixing some into greek yogurt. It gets insanely thick and delicious. And I love that short workout. I’ve been all about quick and effective high intensity workouts lately, too. I don’t have much time so that’s the way they have to be!
Your pancakes look delicious! I haven’t seen coconut flour anywhere but it sounds interesting to use it to make your pancakes.
Your pasta looks great too!
My hubby loves when I make my Mom’s salsa! And her chicken sandwiches (random)
My Grandma used to make something really similar to that Goulash, we always called it tomato macaroni. Soo good!
We used to have goulash all the time as kids, I loved it!
How do you get your pancakes to look so perfect?! Mine always look like a huge mess, haha.
PERFECT PANCAKES!! I’m super impressed! I totally agree w/ you about this week dragging—-seriously the slowest week in a while! thank goodness tmr is friday!
I want to try your pancakes!
Uh WHOAAAAA son!!!!! I want to reach into my computer screen and grab a few of those coconut mini cakes! So yum!
