Your Workouts: More isn't Necessarily Better

Power Breakfast Bowl w/Toasted Cinnamon Buckwheat & Cashew Cream
Breakfast is hands down my favorite meal of the day. I love everything from traditional American breakfasts of eggs and bacon, to yogurt and granola, to pancakes, to overnight oats. I think it's because it's so easy to get creative and variety with breakfast while staying incredibly healthy.
Throughout my dietary adjustments I've had to make this year because of my autoimmune/thyroid issues, I've honestly run into difficulties with staying creative for meal ideas sometimes with dinner and lunch, but never with breakfast. And power breakfast bowls are my jam...

Vegan Gluten-Free Buckwheat Pancakes with Cashew Cream
Let's be real here: I feel like I basically had cake for breakfast. And I pretty much did.
Anyone else struggle with keeping pancakes warm before you serve them in a stack? I know you can do the plate in the oven thing, but I just have never bothered. With these, I actually preferred them to be room temperature with the refrigerated cashew cream in there- it really made it taste like cake. These vegan + gluten-free buckwheat pancakes would be an amazing Christmas breakfast to make for your family!

Not a Reward or the Boogeyman: It's Just Food
Food shouldn't have to be BAD vs. GOOD or a reward vs. something to fear.
It is not the enemy. It is not a reward or a punishment.
It is nourishment that enables us to roam and travel the world, our tastebuds to be thrilled, our brains to create and think, our bodies to run, jump, dance, love, and live in all expressions possible...
