Almond Flour and Oat (Pumpkin) Pancakes or Apple Pancakes

Here is the recipe for these delicious, healthy and easy to make pancakes.  These can be plain, banana, or any sort of fruit you would like.  You can also substitute the coconut water with regular water, almond or hemp milk.  If you are gluten free be sure to use certified gluten free Oatmeal.  This fed myself, husband, and toddler girls.   The almond flour is packed with protein, fiber, and good fats to keep you full.  We used a little bit of dark maple syrup to dip the pancakes in.  Since I posted this on Facebook, I've received quite a bit of positive feedback about these.  My family has definitely seen them several times since as well!



Pumpkin Pancakes




1 cup    Organic Oatmeal  (Blend in my blendtec to a fine powder)
1 cup     Almond Flour       (certified Gluten Free)
3           Eggs  or  Chia seed gel to make it Vegan
1/3 cup  Pumpkin or an apple cut in 4
1/2 cup  Coconut water, Hemp, or Almond Milk
1 tsp        Vanilla
1 tsp        Baking Powder
1 tsp        Pumpkin/Cinnamon spices

1.  Blend Oats in a blender or food processor to powder.
2.  Add the rest of the ingredients to blender or food processor.
3.  Heat Large Pan or Skillet with Coconut or Olive Oil on medium to high.
4.  Press "batter" button if you have a Blendtec. Otherwise blend on low speed making sure all ingredients get mixed well.  You can also hand mix if needed!
5.  Pour on to heated pan to desired size.  It will not bubble like flour pancakes. Check them frequently and flip when golden brown. 
6.  Enjoy!

What Doctor's don't tell you after a C-section

I have now been through 2 C-sections since writing this blog post and thankfully I've recovered beautifully from both with the appropriate progressions. For those who are new and are just finding me. WELCOME! First let me say I did NOT want a C-section. I did everything in my power to avoid the first and even the second. I'm a kettlebell fitness strength and conditioning coach who relies on her body to share, teach, educate, and I was under the impression that having to give birth via C-section would and could destroy my body and career. Boy was I wrong! If you're feeing the same way, start by reading this article I wrote many years ago that still applies today! Many people have asked and here is part of my experience.  I don't claim to be a medical expert but not only have I successfully healed my C-section, my abdominals are no longer numb, and I've successfully helped others who've had multiple C-sections (even some 20 years ago) find their core aga

Let's Talk About Butts (Butt "on" Workouts)

To lift or not to lift, that is the question.  Despite the popular sayings, "Strong is the new Skinny" or "Strong is the New Sexy," there is still a large portion of the female population that will shy away from lifting solely due to their fear of bulking up or building too much muscle.  I'm not going to tell you that heavy weights won't help build muscle and I'm not going to deny the fact that some women can build muscle easier than others.   Let's start with the photo below.  This is a nice example of the female backside that shows two different body types.  The woman on the left falls in the category of an ectomorph, which generally means skinny, little muscle, and a very high metabolism.  She could probably eat what she wants and stay skinny.  If she committed to a butt strengthening and enhancing program, filled with exercises such as squats, deadlifts, and kettlebell swings , developing the butt on the right would still be unlike
