This bowl of oatmeal was soft and fluffy like a huge soft robe. Thank the chia seeds and ripe banana for that one! Whenever Matt is around this is how oatmeal turns out (even if he’s in the shower while I’m making it). Today he was – he slept in a bit and just biked [...]

I made a few combos earlier this year – Banana Bread, Fruit Pie, and Chocolate Banana and determined I like the microwaved flax egg version the [...]
