Steel Cut Oats with Apples

This winter has been a harsh one this year and I find myself wanting something warm and filling to eat on the weekend when I can stay in and just be cozy with my boys! This steel cut oats and apple one was amazing! I cooked the oats according to the package for just one serving. The boys are not huge fans of oatmeal so I just made this one for myself. I used the Trader Joes Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats. As I was cooking them I added in diced apples. I used an entire apple. Cooking it with the oats gave it enough time to get the apples soft. 

Then I added in a small handful of walnuts, a dash of cinnamon, vanilla and sea salt as well as a tablespoon of cashew butter and a splash of vanilla almond milk. 

I did not follow a specific recipe for this one I just doctored it up myself. Worth a try on a cold morning!!! Kept me full for quite some time! 

Stay warm!

Breakfast Egg Muffins

Breakfast English Muffins 

Since starting the 21 day fix months ago I am finding that I pick eggs often as my breakfast as well as dinner some nights. I wanted to be able to make some and have them ready to store in the fridge so I could pack them a few days in a row in my lunch box. I saw on Pinterest that people were putting eggs in muffin tins and making "mini muffins." I decided to give it a try and it was a win! Super easy and they really held up well just like a muffin. 

Here is what you will need to do to give it a try. 

Heat the oven to 375 degrees and spray cooking spray on each muffin tin

•  6 cracked eggs
• Splash of milk 
• 4 Tablespoons of fresh salsa
• Handful of diced onions and peppers
• 2 slices of ham diced up 
• Motzerella cheese to sprinkle on top

After you wisk the ingredients together our them into the muffin tins ( half way) sprinke the cheese on top and bake for 25 mins or until brown.
