Pumpkin pie infused breakfast cake made with quinoa flakes, pumpkin and chia seeds. Delicious, quick, gluten-free, and vegan, too!

2. Microwave option: Place in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes. You’ll know when it’s done when it rises slightly, is harder to the touch, and pulls away from the sides of the dish. Don’t bake it too long, or you’ll have a Frisbee!
3. Oven option: Place in a preheated oven at 350F and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until toothpick inserted comes out clean.
4. Allow to rest for 1 minute before tipping over onto a plate and drizzling with coconut butter. Or, prepare in jar as I did with this version.

Notes

If you don’t have pumpkin spice, you can use: 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, ½ teaspoon ground ginger, ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg and ¼ teaspoon all spice instead. Topping used in photographs: melted coconut butter

Let’s talk about quinoa for a second, kay?
Quinoa may look like a grain, but it’s actually a tini-tiny seed. It has high levels of amino acids, lysine and isoleucine, which makes it a complete protein source (meaning that it has all essential amino acids).
What is the difference between quinoa flakes and quinoa seeds?

Quinoa seeds can be boiled like rice and used in salads, soups or stews like I did with smokey bear quinoa, cranberry mango salad, or this warm kale pilaf.
Quinoa flakes are crushed quinoa seeds. They’re a lot like quick oats but are gluten-free, grain-free and taste awful on their own. Ha… really, they do. But they work fabulously as a replacement for bread crumbs and are really good in quinoa flake bakes.

So now that we got all that out of the way…
Prepping this recipe couldn’t be simpler. Add everything to a bowl, mix it around, place it in a dish, cook and consume.


Eating pumpkin never tasted this good.

Hey, did I mention that this totally constitutes as breakfast?

Remembering 9.11.01

Thinking about all those who lost their lives on this day 12 years ago. No matter how many years pass the memories and emotions of that day are still so strong for me,Sam and I were in Myrtle Beach  on vacation. Billy, Jen and Alyssa drove up from Florida the night before. Sam and I were in one room of the suite watching the news having coffee when the 1st one hit.I woke them up to come watch the news. The sky was clear and this couldn't have been an accident. Then there on live TV the second plane hit the towers. I felt so sick, like someone had violated everything I knew to be true. Jen was so upset and I was trying to stay calm for her. It sure was a scarey thing to have lived threw and hope  we never go threw anything like it again. Please pray for our country, the people who lost someone on that day, and most of all remember the heroes, those who died saving others and those who lived to see another day. I'll never forget 9/11/01

Been Scrap booking

I have been trying to get a book ready to order by Wednesday and not sure I'm going to make it  but will share the ones I have done so far lol.

Sam now feeling good today

Sam's legs are hurting and swollen today so we are not going to the farm.  we watched fast and furious 6 and  a few other movies and just relaxed. His blood pressure is up :(
My tomatoes are doing so good still.   we are watching the Nascar race and going to bed soon.

Homemade Body Butter

I have been playing again. I was so tired yesterday I took a long bath with Epson salt and lavender oil and then  used my new body butter and though I never shared it.  I also got some good shots of the Hummers too.

Homemade Body Butter

 

Ingredients

• 1½ cups of coconut oil
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 2 tablespoons zest of grapefruit or orange I used a orange

 Coconut oil and honey alone have so many healthful benefits, so just imagine what combining the two will do for your skin, without all of the junkity junk so many other skin care products can have. I’ve primarily been using it to shave my legs. While there’s no lather, it’s pretty cool, because once I’m out of the shower or bath, my legs are already moisturized with no need for anything else. Very handy dandy, indeed. It can also be added by the spoonfuls to a hot bath as a bath oil/moisturizer.Be aware that since it’s an oil base it can make the shower floor or tub quite slippery, so be careful! And Since there is citrus zest  little pieces of zest that you will need to wipe off.

Day of rest

Today I wanted a day of rest. LOL
 Well I did 3 loads of laundry, payed bills,Picked  up liquor and groceries and then cooked spaghetti.  Maybe tomorrow I will rest. I do have to say having the house to myself and quiet was nice but I do miss Sam.

Weekend with Grayson

Just a quick post for now. We have Grayson this weekend. We have gone to Orange leave. to the pool, bowling  and today I think we are going to mini golf lol poor Papaw . This is the 1st time I have bowled in years and Sam said it has been 40 years for him but I think we did good !!!
