Whole Foodie Fitness

I'm tired. Bella woke up just before 5 am today & decided she was not
going back to sleep. I was trying to think of a breakfast full of
healthy carbs that would wake me up & Bella and I would both like. We
went with whole wheat pancakes with peanut butter & "jelly" pancakes.
I usually stick with different oatmeal variations but the early rise
made me feel like I deserved a treat.

Whole Wheat Peanut Butter & "Jelly" Pancakes For Two



1/2 cup plus 2 tbsp Whole wheat flour (you canexpirement with other
types of whole grain flour)
1/2 cup milk or milk sub
2 eggs
1 1/4 tsp baking powder
Cinnamon & stevia to taste

Mix all ingrediants. Heat on a medium heat pan and flip when bubbles
beging to appear.

Jelly Topping
1/2 berries (I used blueberries)
2 packets of stevia
2 tbsp water
Mix ingredients together and heat in a sauce pan until warm. Spread
peanut butter over pancakes and drizzle with sauce.

This is one of my favorite breakfast treats. I usually save them for
when I need extra energy for a lot of cardio in the morning or days
like today when my coffee just isn't cutting it.

Plans for today so far:

Cardio + Weights
Clean house
Yoga
Maybe go shopping
Budget planning
Look around the internet for a new camera, Bella broke mine and I'm tired of cheap little $99 cameras so I'm hoping to get one for my birthday which is coming up.

I'm try to eat as healthy as possible most of the time but my major weakness is cookies. I just can't help it and since we all need a treat everyonce in awhile I just had to try this recipe from How Sweet Eats. They have whole wheat flour instead of bleached and natural peanut butter is actuall very good for you. Next time I make them I'm going to try using stevia instead of sugar. These are of course something you don't want to eat everyday or have five of in one sitting but if you get a cookie craving they are a good way to fill the void.

Since I don't want to take credit for a recipe that isn't mine you can go ahead and find it here
Sweet dreams everyone! I'm off to do a late night workout, its way too hot here to get my cardio in during the day :(
