Vegan Keto Pancakes

Being vegan and new to the keto life, I have been on a search for vegan keto-friendly recipes. I hear that being vegan AND keto is one of the most restrictive diets out there, but that it IS doable if done right. Since I drink Keto OS I am actually able to put my body into ketosis without having to eat a strict ketogenic diet (phew!), so I am doubtful that I will follow a vegan keto diet, but the more vegan keto recipes I like, the better! I found this pancake recipe over at MeatfreeKeto and I will say it was absolutely delicious. The pancakes tasted like peanut butter cookies to me and totally like dessert! I would eat these every day if I could. MeatFreeKeto has a ton of awesome recipes over on their site so be sure to go check them out!! 

 Ingredients:

  • 2 Tbsp unsweetened almond butter
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
  • 1 Tbsp ground flax 
  • 1 Tbsp coconut flour 
  • 1/2 tsp. baking powder 



Instructions: 
  1. Heat your frying pan over low medium heat. Lightly oil the pan with your oil of choice.
  2. In a small dish, combine almond butter and almond milk.
  3. In another dish, combine the dry ingredients until they are well blended. 
  4. Combine wet and dry ingredients, stir thoroughly until mixed well. Let the mixture sit for 1-2 minutes so that the flax and coconut flour can absorb the liquid. 
  5. Spoon the batter into your skillet and spread gently into pancakes. 
  6. Cook for about 4-5 minutes until the pancakes flip easily. 
  7. When golden on the underside flip and cook for another 2-3 minutes until done.
  8. Top with vegan butter, coconut cream, sugar-free syrup, berries, or more almond butter!!

Recipe Thursday: Fall Detox Vegetable Soup

Image
I am a Boston girl born and raised but honestly I am cold more often than not. For that reason as soon as summer ends I start to get sad and panic about how I am going to keep myself warm all winter. One way that works for me is to make a lot of warm soups so that I can warm myself up from the inside out!  When I posted the choices for this week's Recipe Thursday , the concern over the word "detox" was thoroughly entertaining. Trust me, I get it. In the past, the word detox meant spending an entire day in the....well you get the point. As I came to learn more about nutrition I began to understand that "detox" does not mean that you will not be able to leave your house for days, all it means is that you are cleansing your body of toxins in a healthy way.  I kid, I kid...my point is that the Fall Vegetable Detox Soup was the winner this week and eating it does not mean that you will have to cancel your plans for the day. I found this soup reci

Anthony Kiedis: Over 50 and Red Hot

Image
When Anthony Kiedis from the Red Hot Chili Peppers came on stage Sunday night the first thing that came to my mind was, "damn, he looks good". The second thing was, "I wonder how old he is". So obviously I went right to google and did some research. The information I found went above and beyond what I was expecting to learn. Anthony is 51 years old. He is a dad of a 5 year old boy who is named after his favorite band, his godfather was Sonny Bono, and he was voted sexiest male vegan by PETA. Because he seems so fit and healthy, it surprised me to learn that Anthony had actually been an avid drug user and heroin addict in the past. He even contracted the hepatitis C virus from his experimentation. He was addicted to some bad things, that were draining his life. These days instead of shooting heroin, Kiedis is addicted to things that are actually good for him. He focuses on his health, fitness, and family. Although I wasn't in as deep as Anthony, I
