We created a tropical fruit refreshing smoothie that is ideal for a light treat in the morning. Instead of yogurt or milk, we added coconut water which is full of electrolytes for a hydrating touch and ginger for added detox benefits. There is even a bit of green so you know you are getting a good dose of fruit and vegetables.  Can be substituted with any fruit of choice and goes great with sweet or savoury breakfasts.

Everyone loves fluffy pancakes for breakfasts, but butter, syrup, and whole fat milk can be heavy and unhealthy on a regular basis.  We wanted to make something both nutritious and tasty which the whole family could enjoy.  Our banana oatmeal pancakes are made with whole wheat flour and coconut oil giving you all those healthy good fats and fiber.  We skipped sugar and syrup all together as ripe bananas add plenty of sweetness and the sprinkle of blueberries are ideal for that extra kick of flavour.  Oatmeal is a great source of B vitamins, minerals, and soluble fiber for you and your family.  No guilt when sitting down to this indulgent treat.
