GRAIN FREE PANCAKES

We’re enjoying gluten and grain free pancakes this Saturday morning with bacon, stewed apples and raspberries.

The bacon is organic and free range. The stewed apples are from our garden and with no added sweeteners. The frozen raspberries are also from our garden.

The pancakes are made from half a mashed banana, three eggs, 1/2 cup coconut milk, two heaped tsp. psyllium husk, and a mix of green banana flour and sorghum flour until right consistency.

SIMPLE GINGER & LEMON TEA

SIMPLE GINGER & LEMON TEA

Lately, I’ve been drinking a simple ginger and lemon tea. It has lots of nourishing and healing properties!

I slice the ginger and put it in a mug. Then I pour boiling water in the mug and let it cool so I can drink it without burning myself. That’s when I add a couple of lemon slices. If you would like it sweetened, you can add a few drops of liquid stevia.

Enjoy! 🍋
