Overnight Oats= The Easiest Weight- Loss Breakfast EVER!

Posted in Austin Texas Neighborhoods, Community Events, Healthy Living, Kyle Texas Neighborhoods, Leander Texas Neighborhoods, Recipes, tagged #AustinTexas, #Breakfast, #delicious, #easy, #FirstLadyofRE, #oats, #overnight, #recipe, #REMAX, #weightloss, healthy on July 17, 2015| Leave a Comment »

I always go to bed with the best intentions to wake up early, enjoy the morning, and fuel my body with a satisfying breakfast, but things don’t always work out that way — did I mention I’m not much of a morning person? Luckily, I’ve found a recipe that requires about 30 seconds of preparation the night before and ensures that I get to fulfill at least one of these morning goals every day. Meet the easiest breakfast of all time: overnight oats. It does not get any better than mixing a few ingredients together before bed and grabbing a spoon when you’re ready to eat a delicious breakfast.

High in protein and fiber, this whole-grain recipe will keep hunger at bay all morning long. Even better, this recipe supports healthy digestion and can even help you beat belly bloat. I’ve toyed around with a number of iterations of the basic recipe with slight changes, but this combination of ingredients including chia seeds and slivered almonds has become my go-to mix. Try it out for yourself tonight.

INGREDIENTS

1/2 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup coconut milk
1 tablespoon chia seeds
2 tablespoons slivered almonds
1/2 tablespoon maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS

Mix all the ingredients together in a glass jar. Stir well, cover, and refrigerate overnight.
The next morning, remove from the fridge, top off with your favorite fresh fruit, and enjoy!

When an avocado meets an egg

Posted in Austin Texas Neighborhoods, Healthy Living, Kyle Texas Neighborhoods, Leander Texas Neighborhoods, Recipes, tagged #AustinTexas, #avocado, #Breakfast, #eggs, #fattyacids, #FirstLadyofRE, #paleo, #protein, #recipe, #snacks, healthy on July 8, 2015| Leave a Comment »

Avocados are an excellent source of good fatty-acids you need in your diet, and combined with the high protein of an egg these two ingredients go hand in hand. Baked eggs in avocado are a quick and easy recipe that you can eat any time of the day. Whether it be breakfast or for a quick snack this recipe makes for an EGGcellent treat!

Baked Eggs in Avocado Recipe

INGREDIENTS

2 ripe avocados
4 fresh eggs
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon chopped chives

DIRECTIONS

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees.
Slice the avocados in half, and take out the pit. Scoop out about two tablespoons of flesh from the center of the avocado, just enough so the egg will fit snugly in the center.
Place the avocados in a small baking dish. Do your best to make sure they fit tightly.
Crack an egg into each avocado half. Try your best to crack the yolk in first, then let the egg whites spill in to fill up the rest of the shell.
Place in the oven and bake for 15 to 20 minutes. Cooking time will depend on the size of your eggs and avocados. Just make sure the egg whites have enough time to set.
Remove from oven, then season with pepper, chives, and garnish of your choice. Enjoy!
