Corner Bakery Anaheim Scrambler and Happy St. Patrick's Day

Anaheim Scrambler is my go to meal at our local corner bakery. I love the little peppers and tomato pieces. I think it is pretty with all of the colors and  it tastes delicious. This morning  I couldn't make it to Corner Bakery but I was excited when I saw some green pepper in my fridge. I fried up a pound of bacon and made it as crispy as I could get it (I love my bacon almost burnt! MMMM). Then I made my own version of the Anaheim Scrambler.
  • 2 eggs
  • 1/4 Green pepper,diced
  • 1 on the vine Tomato, diced
  • a little salt and pepper to taste
  • *Normally Avocado slices if I have some for Garnish- I used apples instead
Mix all of the ingredients into a bowl. 
Pour into a preheated, oiled pan. I cooked mine in the leftover bacon grease- hence the brownish coloring to my eggs! (I totally recommend this, little bits of bacon in your scrambler!) 
Stir eggs constantly until they are cooked to your liking.



Since we don't eat real toast anymore- Enjoy this little Irish toast while eating or make this

Here's to your roof,

may it be well thatched
And here's to all
under it -
May they be
well matched.

Apple Cinnamon Pancakes

       Today Brandon and I had a chance to share the most recent events in our lives with our church community. Brandon meets with our pastor once a week to hang out, have breakfast and talk about life together. During this time he had been sharing our "Living life with margin" and our pastor asked us to speak this morning at church to share with people about how we make finances, time and emotions work for us. 


        It was really cool talking to everyone about the things God has done in our lives. Being able to share that helped us to analyze a lot of the different ways that God has touched our lives these past few months. After service, I had several people approach us and ask about our eating and recent healthy lifestyle changes. 
Brandon and I learned today that we really enjoy sharing healthy eating habits and healthier lifestyles with people. It is feels great to be able to give back and help people. 


        I have been really interested in learning the health benefits through the foods people eat. Inflammation, aches and pains, back pains, Parkinson's, infections, degenerative disease, auto-immune disorders, cancers, thyroid diseases, etc all linked to food? Crazy how what we eat effects us that much. I've been researching the science behind what to eat and why. Today I listened to two interviews on health and wellness through Sean Croxton's Pod-casts. One was by Diane Sanfilippo and the other by Mark Sisson
I will be blogging about some of the things I learned later this week! Very cool stuff. 

      After a nice walk and all of this new knowledge, I sure was hungry- tonight I made breakfast for dinner. Brandon's choice! 



Apple Cinnamon Pancakes
Ingredients
   4 eggs
     1 cup milk (raw milk or coconut)
     2 teaspoons vanilla extract
     3/4 cup coconut flour
     1 tsp baking soda
     1/2 tsp sea salt
     2 tsp Cinnamon
  1 tsp Honey
  3 cup Apple Sauce
Should be thick and fluffy
      Process:
   Beat eggs in a bowl until well blended
       Add in Vanilla and Milk, mix well
      Add in the rest of the ingredients, mix until no lumps are left.
   Grease a skillet with butter and pour pancakes in (these flip well). Cook on medium-low heat until
    browned. These are good and with the butter there is a nice crisp around the edges. Allow them to
    cook until you start to see some bubbles in the batter. 
Drizzle with some Maple Syrup!
