Red Thai Curry with Shrimp This is probably my favourite food.  You can easily substitute cooked, sliced chicken for the shrimp but is just so easy with shrimp and very tasty.  My version is packed with veggie goodness just to add to the health benefits.  I usually serve this over brown jasmine rice but it would work equally as well over riced cauliflower.  I was cooking for 5 people and a toddler so I made quite a bit.  I will half the ingredients in this recipe but know that it doubles well.  I only had 1 can of coconut cream so I just added a bit more broth and curry paste and it was good so it's a pretty versatile and forgiving recipe. Recipe: Ingredients: 1 Bag frozen raw shrimp, peeled, tails off 2 green onions Thumb sized piece of ginger grated 2 garlic cloves minced 1/2 red bell pepper sliced thin 1/2 yellow or orange bell pepper sliced thin 1 small zucchini sliced 1 small carrot grated 1 can coconut milk/cream 1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken broth 2 table

Oatmeal Breakfast Muffins The batter for these muffins (I always lick the spoon when I'm done.) tastes like Quaker Instant Oatmeal mmmm.  These are a quick, healthy option for a rushed morning or can be easily packed to take along, oatmeal on the go. Ingredients: 1 Omega 3 large egg 1/4 cup apple sauce 1/3 cup pure maple syrup 2 tsp vanilla 1 cup low fat buttermilk 1 cup whole wheat flour 1/4 cup wheat germ 1 tsp baking soda 1/4 tsp sea salt 1 1/2 tsp cinnamon 1 cup quick oats 1 large apple grated Method: Set oven to 350 degrees.  Line a muffin tin with muffin liners.  (You can spray your muffin liners with oil but I don't use that stuff.  My liners stuck to the muffins a bit but not bad.) 1. Whisk together the egg and apple sauce until combined.  Add in the maple syrup, vanilla and buttermilk and whisk lightly until combined, 2. Whisk together the flour, baking soda, salt, wheat germ and cinnamon.  Whisking your dry ingredients adds air to them a
