Paleo for Kids | Coconut and Almond Muffins

I just realized I have a coconut flour right under my nose. And I was like... :Why is it so hard to find you, coconut flour?

Anyways, I bought a couple pack of dessicated coconut and I could actually use a blender and turn it into coconut flour. Although I have spoiled my blender in the process, left too long to blend the dessicated coconut, it's quite worthy to realize I could get a coconut flour wherever I am.

Also, through googling  it, I realized I knew how to make virgin coconut oil. I used to do it for my hair on my younger days. Just didn't like the after-smell.

I will definitely make my own virgin coconut oil next time, once I get a chance to go to the market to buy meself coconut.

Anyways, yeah... coconut and almond muffins for breakfast for my kids? Why not!

Here are my ingredients:

1/4 cup coconut flour
1/4 cup organic almond powder
1/4 cup organic honey
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
3 eggs (beaten)
2 tbs virgin coconut oil
1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Here's how to make coconut and almond muffins the Paleo way:

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix together the eggs, baking powder, coconut oil, sea salt and honey.
3. Add in coconut flour and almond powder. Mix well.
4. Line the paper cases with olive oil in the muffin tin.
5. Place the mixture into paper cases halfway.
6. Place into the preheated oven and bake for 15 minutes.

Tada!! It's a big hit!

Paleo for Kids | Cauliflower and Broccoli Fritters for Breakfast

It's an adjustment for kids to eat cooked food for breakfast. For one, they usually eat either cereal with milk or bread with Skippy or bread with Nutella for breakfast. If I am not lazy enough, I would make french toast drizzled with honey for them and that's all.

Since I want them to live a Paleo lifestyle that I have been doing, I decided to make something Paleo for breakfast for them.

Cauliflower and Broccoli Fritters.

Ingredients are:

broccoli (diced)
cauliflower (diced)
Haloumi cheese (grated)
2 eggs (beaten)
garlic powder
sea salt
mixed herbs
coconut oil

Here's how to make cauliflower and broccoli fritters:

1. Heat the coconut oil in a pan (I use medium heat).
2. Mix all the ingredients.
3. Form patties out of the mixture.
4. Fry until brown on both sides.
5. Enjoy! My kids did. <3

You must have noticed that I use a lot of Haloumi cheese for my cooking. Haloumi is a goat cheese and it is widely acceptable for those Paleo dieters. I use feta cheese from time to time, too, though.

Anyways, this recipe is a winner for my kids!

I can't wait to try other Paleo recipes for breakfast for my kids. :P

Wanna introduce you to my latest craze, my very own made up recipe: Eggplant with extra virgin olive oil. It is so yummy.

Here's my recipe for:

Grilled Eggplant with Olive Oil, Apple Cider and Bacon Bits:

Ingredients: ( I usually don't do measurements. You can prepare according to how much you want to eat and according to your taste)

eggplant
apple cider vinegar
cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil
salt to season
bacon bits (I use Meaty)

Grill eggplant. Take out the burned skin. Mash a little bit. Add in apple cider vinegar, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil, and salt to taste. Garnish with roasted bacon bits.

Heaven.
