I'm a Christian wife & homeschooling mama, saved by faith through grace. I changed my family's diet from SAD (Standard American Diet) to healthy, delicious & nutritious traditional foods. I've recently discovered there's a name for the way that I eat. It's called Primal or Paleo (I like the diet and think of the men and women who worked hard from sunup to sundown, constantly on the go, eating meat, berries they picked, cheese they made. I do not believe in evolution). No grains, legumes, refined sugars, and no/limited dairy.

Best. Pancakes. Ever.

I'm not even joking. They taste like cake. Dude. Super yummy!!

I used coconut oil, because I didn't have ghee. I guess I had yogurt, but I really like how they turned out with coconut oil.
You probably don't need the stevia, if that's the only thing stopping you from making these, don't let it!

Without further ado - The Spunky Coconut Quinoa & Coconut Pancakes.

Picture to come...

Thin Pancakes

One of my favorite childhood foods were Thin Pancakes. I remember when my dad taught me the recipe to make them. I was homeschooled at the time, and I was over at his office (he's a pastor at the church next door to my parents' house). He wrote on the white board a little visual aid, so I'd remember the proportions. We spent some time with me memorizing it, and I said it all the way home...now I kind of wonder why he didn't just write it down, but it gave me a fun memory! LOL

The picture looked something like this, except my dad's a better artist:

When I was a kid, we sprinkled white sugar on them, out of the classic Tupperware sugar pourer, and rolled them up, but I don't like to use white sugar, so we used maple syrup, then rolled them up. They were yummy!

The recipe, as the picture clearly shows, is 1 egg, 1 cup of flour, and 1 cup of milk. I used a local, free range egg, 1 cup of Gluten Free Mama Flour mix, and 1 cup of Almond Milk (original). Mix it all together, and pour some on a hot pan, greased with, you guessed it! Coconut oil. Move pan to make circle. When it's no longer shiny on top, flip it. You can also serve with fruit preserves!

Egg Crepes or Pancakes

I saw Keeper of the Home's recipe for Sweet or Savory Roll Ups and just had to try it!
It was very good, and all three kids loved it! I tried putting salsa on them, as well as ranch dressing (dairy free, post to come!), and also jelly that is only fruit, fruit juice and pectin.
They use a dozen eggs per batch, however, so I can't make them every day, but definitely if we're going to be on the go, it's an easy way for the kids to get a healthy breakfast or snacks!

This is a terrible picture with my phone of a crepe with salsa, they looked much nicer in person ;)


More posts to come soon! My card reader wasn't working, so I couldn't upload the pics of food, so I have a few I hope to work on tomorrow.
