Pancakes are an everyday food and snack in our house. Haines is obsessed with them and I'm not mad about it. I seriously have to make them in huge batches he eats them up! ... No he does not get syrup on them but they are just as satisfying and sweet with banana in the batter. The recipe is every changing and evolving I make them so often but here are the staples.

The mighty little Lentil Packed full of fiber, protein and iron these legumes are sure to satisfy the whole family. I'm on a new kick to soak and cook my own dried legumes we go through them so fast. I add then into babies pancakes to make them extra nutritious, salads, stews you name it. ... Wondering what other foods you can hide these legumes in to get more finer and protein in your diet? Send me a message! Here's how to prepare your dried lentils 1. Sort through your organic beans and discard any discoloured ones and any other debris you find 2. Rinse under cold running water 3. Add to a pot, cover with hot water and add a splash of apple cider vinegar and leave for 8 hours or overnight 4. Drain, rinse and return to the same pot covered with fresh water 5. Bring to a boil, cover and let them cook for 10-20 minutes depending on your type of lentil 6. Season with salt after the cooking process while they rest in the water for up to 2 hours. 7. Drain, rinse and enjoy Cooking instructions brought to you by @mynewroots #lentils #nutrition #naturopath #vancouver #squamish #babyfood #fiber #iron #protein #healthy #postpartumnutrition #pregnancynutrition #womenswellness #healthyhormones

Breakfast Break - The - Fast Intermittent fasting as a way of eating has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity, and aid in weight loss. ... There are different fasting timelines but fasting for 14-16 hours a day is a good starting point. You can still consume the same amount of calories in a day (it doesn't have to be a caloric restrictive diet) however you do condense the window of time that you consume these calories in each day. Interested in learning more? We have a weight loss program @theivhealthcentre and this is one method I like to use with patients and have seen great results.

I'll just leave this happy little cup of coffee here. If you enjoy more than one cup of coffee a day, the recommendation I give all my patients is make sure you're drinking at least a full glass of water between each one. Sometimes its not about eliminating and restricting the things you love but instead adding in that which you may be lacking in. ... Coffee is a diuretic, so it will dehydrate you. If you consume it daily it's really important that you rehydrate your body and cells with water water water.
