Good Habit #1: Eat a High Protein/Low Fat Breakfast Every Day

Bad Habit Bye-bye: McDonald's Bacon Egg Cheese Biscuit Breakfast ( I confess, I love McDonald's Breakfast)


Hello Good Habit: Yummo Breakfast! Chocolate Mousse! I got the recipe from www.rawmazing.com. I have had it before and it is soooo good. You would not believe that it is actually good for you.  I am going to make a double batch, put it in my fridge in small gladware containers so that they are ready to go.


Chocolate Mousse
  • 3/4 C Dates soaked until very soft with pits removed
  • 2 avocados
  • 1  C. Almond Milk
  • 1/2 C Almond Butter
  • 3/4 C Cacao Powder
  • 1/2 C Agave
In food processor or blender, combine all ingredients and blend or process until smooth. Refrigerate, then enjoy. You will not believe how good this is!

Raw Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

 "Mommy, cookies go in the oven, not the dehydrator."

Raw Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

1 cup cashew flour (cashews in the food processor)
1 cup of oatmeal flour (oatmeal in the food processor)
3 cups whole oats
1 cup coconut
1 tsp cinnamon
1 cup chocolate chips
2 apples cored
1 banana
1 cup coconut water
1/4 cup agave nectar

1. Place the apples, banana, coconut water, and agave in the blender. Blend until totally pureed.
2. In a separate bowl combine the dry ingredients.
3. Add the puree mixture to the dry mixture. It should be the consistency of cookie dough.
4. Form into cookies and place in dehydrator for 6-8 hours.
These cookies are the best right out the dehydrator. They are fabulous for dessert but they are so healthy have them for breakfast if you want. Go ahead, you know you want to. If you don't have a dehydrator you can do them in the oven on the lowest setting for a shorter amount of time. Just check them regularly. I also recommend flipping them over halfway through if you choose the oven method.
