Protein Chocolate Chip & Blueberry Bagels

These are soooooo good! My kids ask me to make these ALL the time. Esp my picky eater, she loves them!! Def can add whatever you want to them, or as toppings. I love mine with either plain or strawberry cream cheese. Yum! I know what I am making this week! No judging, our microwave broke and we decided to order new appliances, these were just old and needed to go, had them for 8 years. I LOVE our new appliances!  Funny story content: I was making mini corndogs and the stupid muffins would not stop crumbling! I was pissed and kinda sorta hit the pan on the side of our counter until it dented! oops.  My son, the one speaking, loves throwing that in my face. 😀  You Will Need: 2 Cups Flour 1 tsp Salt 2 tsp Baking Powder 1 tsp Cinnamon 1 Cup Greek Whole Milk Vanilla Yogurt 2 tbsp Honey  Chocolate Chips/Blueberries (I used frozen wild ones, thawed) Melted Butter, brushed on top before cooking. Cook 400 degrees for 10-15 mins or until golden brown. 

Green Bean Casserole

Holidays are coming! Holidays are coming!! OMFG!! Get ready! I love, love, love making this green bean casserole. I use as many pure ingredients as I can; for example I used canned green beans (but I canned them myself!), I used raw grass-fed milk, and cream of mushroom soup (not in a can). You can take any classic recipe that may not be 'healthy' for you and you can make it healthy; as I did here. The crispy onions I used only have 4 ingredients in them (which is amazing considering what is in French's onions). When I use items that are non-organic I like to look for 5 or less ingredients, not in a can, and does not contain anything 'bad'.
You Will Need:
4 Cups Green Beans 
1 Cup Milk
12 oz Cream of Mushroom 
Crispy Onions
Salt & Pepper
Mix the cream of mushroom with the milk, whisk well
Stir in green beans
Add in crispy onions, mix, and top with more. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until everything is heated through
I served it with roasted potatoes, and pot roast that I cooked in spices and other things, then thickened it with gravy packets (organic from whole foods)
