Chocolate Banana Breakfast Ice Cream
1 frozen banana, cut in chunks (1 cup)
2 -3 tablespoons plain yogurt
1/2 - 1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon unsweetened cocoa powder
Blend together and serve immediately.
* I added a teaspoon of sunflower butter (peanut butter replacement) -- it was pretty tasty.
Below: Erik watching the ice cream being blended. He actually licked the top of the food processor just before I snapped the photo -- of course I missed the shot!
And yes, he is standing on the counter, actually the stove. Nope not a good idea. However, I am 32 weeks pregnant, really tired, and he is in a mommy stage. He really wants to be held and cries, " Mommy up, Mommy ride, etc." over and over until I give in. I am glad he loves me and and thankful it is happening now. Hopefully, it will pass before his sister arrives in the next 6-8 weeks.Brainy Brownies
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
3/4 cup semisweet chocolate chips
2 large eggs (or Ener-G replacer)

1/2 cup sugar

1/4 cup whole wheat flour
2 tablespoons wheat germ
1/4 cup rolled oats, ground in food processor
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa powder
1/4 teaspoon salt

That's it! I was "deprived of sweets as a child." That's why I overeat them now. Another thing I can blame my parents for!! Seriously, though, good idea!
