June Day In The Life

June day in the life of a work at home, homeschool mom.

It has been such a long time since I vlogged but it is something that has always brought me a lot of joy. I love the process of recording our days, editing, sharing and looking back on memories of our everyday from years past. I am on a healing journey and starting to come back to some things I let go of, over the last few years and lifestyle vlogging/blogging is one of them.

Check out the vlog below and keep scrolling for the recipes of what I made on this day day. I used my Salton Power Blender all day this day, it is currently my most used kitchen appliance and I love it so much! It blends really smooth and can handle everything from a bullet proof mushroom coffee to grinding nuts.

Fun Cakes (pancake alternative)

4 eggs

1/2 cup oats

blend until fully combined

heat pan and throw in some coconut oil

pour on your mixture to desired fun cake size and fry

serve with maple syrup

Mushroom Coffee Latte (in the video I featured a coconut milk approach on the stove but since then I have been doing the following and prefer it)

In a blender combine

2 scoops mushroom coffee
1 scoop protein poweder

1 scoop coconut oil

1 scoop powder collagen

dash of cinnamon

dash of turmeric

Add about two cups boiling hot water to your blender

let cool for a few minutes and release steam

cover lid with a dish towel and blend with caution

I recommend you enjoy this drink in your favourite mug while grounding in your yard

Day Cake (this is a carrot bake I got from one of my fellow Beachbody Coaches Niki Whiting, that I altered a little)

1lb bag carrots

12 eggs

1 cup oats

3 tsp cinnamon

2 tsp baking powder

vanilla

4-6 dates

1/4 maple syrup

1/2 pumpkin (optional)

blend all ingredients in blender until smooth

pour in a 9x13 greased pan

bake 350 for 30-40 mins

let cool completely

cover and store in refrigerator

enjoy warm or cold and top with peanut butter, more syrup or hazelnut spread


Chocolate Hazelnut Spread

1 cup raw hazelnuts

1/4 cup cocoa powder

1/4 cup maple syrup

add all ingredients to a blender

pour in little bits of water to get all the ingredients moving and continue until desired texture.

store in fridge

Let me know if you try any of the recipes and how you liked them.

Happy homemaking, Heather
