Almond Crackers

YUM. Crunchy. Delish.The perfect treat to a protein packed meal. I paired mine with ceviche and kale. My sister even thought of substituting the oregano for cinnamon if you were looking for a different flavor.

FOCUS: Just like the saying for Lay's potato chips-- You can't eat just one. You've been warned. 

Almond Crackers-

Ingredients:
2 cups almond flour
2TB olive oil
1ts baking soda
1-2TB oregano (I used 2TB)
3TB water 

Directions:
Mix all ingredients together with wet hands. Flatten dough on thin baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Use knife or pizza cutter to slice into squares if you want them to look nice. I just broke mine up into small pieces after they were baked. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes or until brown.

Butternut Squash Pancakes

I wanted to mix it up one weekend morning for breakfast so I took a combination of Zucchini Pancakes and Coach Crystal Nelson's Butternut Squash hashbrowns and made my very own Butternut Squash pancakes.

Ingredients:
1 cup of butternut squash
2 eggs
2 tsp coconut flour
Salt & pepper

Directions: I peeled the butternut squash with a potato peeler. Sliced it in pieces small enough to fit in a food processor and used the shredding part of the food processor to thinly slice the butternut squash. DO NOT food process or it is one big mush. You will have plenty left over to use throughout the week for other meals. Mix all ingredients together. Pour in a skillet greased with coconut oil or ghee and BAM-- yummy pancakes. I paired mine with bacon or chicken sausage.
