Banana Pancakes
This is a favorite in my household. These pancakes are gluten free, wheat free and grain free. They are delicious and you would never know that they are any different from the original pancakes.
Ingredients
1 banana
2 eggs
Extra Virgin Coconut Oil
Directions:
Blend up banana
Mix eggs and banana mush into a bowl.
Spray frying pan with oil
Create small / medium pancakes in frying pan
cook on one side for about 5 minutes on low heat or until firm on the bottom, flip and then cook for another 3 minutes.
This recipe is simple, fun and easy to make any morning, especially on the weekends. This is one serving and it creates anywhere from 2-4 pancakes depending on how big or small you make them.
If you are doing the 21 Day fix this is an approved Fix recipe - equates to 1 red, 2 purple, and 1/2 of a teaspoon.
Once you make these I would love to have your feedback about what you think.
Also you can add any fruit you want to this. I keep it simple and just use the banana and sometimes add cinnamon to it too!
Grain free gluten free chocolate donuts (Chocolate Base Donut)
I don't know about you but every once in a while, I love a good donut!! However, having celiacs you can't find them most places and you can't find ones that are clean. So my goal was to make a gluten free / grain free donut and guess what!?!?! I did it! My husband loves these and they don't last a weekend in our house!! I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we have!
2 eggs
2 bananas
3 TBSP of coconut oil
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
6 TBSP of unsweetened organic cocoa powder
Directions:
Blend everything together in a large bowl until you have a thick cake like batter.
Bake in a donut pan at 350 for 25 minutes. Makes about 6-10 donuts depending on how full you fill each donut slot.
Gluten free creamy peanut butter icing
1 cup creamy all natural peanut butter no sugar or salt added
1 cup plain green yogurt
1/2 cup of honey
1/4 cup of unsweetened organic cocoa powder
3 tsp of vanilla extract
Directions
Blend everything together in a large bowl until you have a creamy frosting! It makes a lot. I probably only used half and still put a lot on the donuts. Feel free to cut in half if only make one batch of donuts.
Grain free gluten free chocolate donuts (Vanilla Base Donut)

Gluten Free Chocolate Peanut Butter Icing
1 cup of creamy all natural no salt added peanut butter
1 cup of Enjoy Life Dark Chocolate Chips (this brand is Gluten Free)
Directions:
Bring a pot of water to a boil.
Place a plastic bowl that will not melt on top of the pot.
Pour the cup of peanut butter and cup of chocolate chips into bowl. Stir them until they are melted together.
Take the bowl off the pot and then take 1 donut at a time and dip and turn it in the icing.
Place in fridge for an hour or overnight to allow the icing to harden.
Enjoy! They are amazing and I think they taste WAY better than a normal gluten donut!
Lunch
Dinner
Mexican Quinoa Bowl
So I told you I love to make new things. I really love to bake but don't want to eat it or have it in my house because too much of a good healthy thing can be bad for you. Last night I tried a new dinner recipe. I was really nervous about it but I did it any and let me tell you, it was AMAZING!!!! This will be in the weekly / biweekly meal plan for sure. You definitely need to try this! 😋
21 day fixers it is approved!
1 - red
1 - yellow (can do 2)
2 - green
1 - blue (which I forgot)
I cooked a 1/4 cup of quinoa to make it be a 1/2 cup cooked. Along with that I cooked a turkey burger on my George Forman. Once I cooked the turkey burger I cut it up and threw it in with the quinoa which was cooked and then threw in a green which was a mix of pico de gallo and spinach. Then sprinkle mozzarella cheese over it. I forgot to put mine on but it was amazing with out it!! And then I had a side of asparagus, which I roasted in the oven.
With this recipe you can really add any ingredients that you would like to it. Any veggies or a different meat would work too.
Let me know what you think. Trust me you won't regret it. :)

Gluten Free / Grain Free Chicken Parmesan
Here is a famous recipe in my house. I don't make it often but when I do, my husband always loves it and houses it! :) This is a clean eating recipe for Chicken Parmesan and it is also Gluten Free Grain Free. It is tastes just as good, if not better than the ones you get at an Italian Restaurant. (I am not bias at all:))
Ingredients:
2-3 ounces of a chicken breast, boneless/skinless, raw - for 1 person or 4-6 ounces for 2.
Almond Meal
½ cup of Parmesan Cheese
3 tablespoons oil
2 teaspoons Marinara Sauce
2 teaspoon freshly grated parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon shredded mozzarella cheese
Preparation
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Mix Almond meal and parmesan cheese together.
Put oil in bowl
Dip pieces of chicken in oil and then in Almond Meal and Parmesan mixture. (Do this for all chicken.)
Place chicken in shallow baking dish, with a light coat of extra virgin coconut oil. Cook for 20 minutes.
Flip chicken over for another 5 minutes.
Put Mariana sauce on chicken, along with parmesan and mozzarella cheese and cook for another 5 minutes.
Pull out of oven and serve.
I usually cook this with a green vegetable. (Asparagus or green beans are my choices)
Can also serve with quinoa or gluten free noodles.
I hope you enjoy! Please send feed back when you make it and what you think of it!

I have very sensitive stomach. 12+ years ago I was diagnosed with Celiac's Disease and every since I have had to be very strict on what I eat or I will get extremely sick. A lot of people would say that is horrible and not being able to eat what you want when you want to is awful. However, if you ask me, it is the best thing that has ever happened to me!! I have learned to love cooking, baking, and trying new things.
I love tacos but lately the Corn Tortillas have been bothering my stomach and even though they say gluten free, they are still processed. So I decided to venture out and make my own Tortilla Shells. And guess what!!! I did it.
I made a gluten free, grain free taco shell. It tasted amazing and ended up being everything I hoped it would be and more.
How did I do it?
In a bowl, I mixed the following together:
1 large egg
1 Tbsp coconut flour
1 Tbsp parmesan cheese (optional)
1/8 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp baking powder
2 pinches of sea salt or any herbs you want!*
2 Tbsp any kind of milk**
*you can add fresh herbs too–it’s really good! I often add several dashes of pizza seasoning–it tastes amazing and is really easy!
Stir until there are no lumps. Let it sit for a minute (the batter will get a little fluffier). Spray coconut oil in the pan, and pour two small sandwich sized “pancakes” into your pan (on just under medium heat).
It will only spread just a little bit. When the tops start to bubble just a little and the bottom is brown, flip them both over.
This recipe makes 2 tortillas. You can double (or more) the recipe. The extras will keep in the fridge for a day or so (you can toast them or heat them back up in the pan… or eat them cold!).
You can also use this recipe to make it thicker and make it into bread and make grilled cheese sandwiches or pizza crust out of it.

Almond Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies - Gluten Free and Grain Free
I am going with you today my favorite recipe!! This recipe is amazing!!! These cookies taste just like regular chocolate chip cookies but they are much healthier and I think even better!! I hope you enjoy these cookies as much as my family has! They are requested monthly and do not last longer than 2-3 days!
Ingredients
1 cup of all natural, unsalted almond butter
1 large egg
1/2 to 3/4 cup of organic raw sugar
1 cup of dark chocolate chips
Preheat oven to 350.
Mix the almond butter, egg and sugar together. Once they are all mixed together, throw the chocolate chips in and mix together.
You can either make small balls to make individual cookies or you can roll out the dough into cake pan and make a sheet of cookies and then cut them individually.
I prefer the pan just because it is faster and takes up less time. However, try them both ways and see what you prefer.
Cook the cookies for 15 minutes or until they are golden brown.
This recipe is only one batch which creates about 15-24 cookies depending on the size.
You can double the batch, which I do all the time especially when making them for special occasions.
Enjoy and please give me your feedback on what you think of them. :)
