Breakfast of Champions!

Title of Product: Toasted Oat Cereal

Description: Whole Grain cereal

Why do you like it?
It is basic, tasty, convenient, and quick to pull together in the morning. It is your basic bowl of cereal but it keeps you full until lunch and doesn't have junk ingredients. Just add milk and you are ready to go. I get the store brand a lot for a lot less and it is just as good. I also squirt a little honey on top to add a little sweet flavor to it.

Tip: Makes for a great evening snack or add a handful to a smoothie for more fiber and substance

Title of Product: Batter Blaster

Description: Organic Pancake Batter in a can

Why do you like it?
I love breakfast food but making pancakes is such a time consumer. This is great and it tastes good too. You spray it directly on the cooking pan and a few minutes later, viola'! Golden brown pancakes--bring on the syrup! The best part is no clean up. Just wash off the spray nozzle and put it back in the refrigerator. And wait there is more... it is organic so there isn't any yucky ingredients to worry about. Sounds too good to be true right? Just give it a try. You can even add some fruit, flaxseed, or other surprises to your batter if you want.

It makes about 20 pancakes and has a long expiration window.

Move over Bisquick!

Title of Product: Hodgson Mill Insta-Bake

Description: Baking Mix

Why do you like it?
This is just like Bisquick but it is made with whole grain/whole wheat. I usually mix it 50-50 with bisquick to get a better flavor and texture for my preference. Using 100% Insta-bake will work just fine but the texture of the food is different. This is great for making pancakes or waffles. I usually add in a little flaxseed to get even more nutritional value into it.

Sprinkle a little Omega-3 in everything!

Title of Product: Bob's Red Mill Whole Ground Flaxseed Meal

Description: Ground flaxseed

Why do you like it?
Dr. Oz recommended this little gem. This is a bag of flaxseed flakes that you sprinkle in just about anything. It is loaded with omega-3 and fiber and can be added to lots of things without affecting the flavor. It says it has a mild nutty flavor but I can't taste it at all. I have used it in baking, milkshakes, fruit smoothies, on top of applesauce and cereal, and in my PBJ sandwich.

Title of Product: Magic Bullet

Description: A single serving blender

Why do you like it?
I'll admit I was a skeptic about this one. It was a gift from my funny Dad who claimed it was great. Well... he was right! This is a great kitchen tool that everyone should get. I use it for milkshakes and smoothies all the time. It makes single servings and the chopping part, the glasses, and the rims are all dishwasher safe. This is wonderful for breakfast smoothies.
