#NovaNutsPoppySeeds Taste Great in Lemon Blueberry Muffins

Nova Nuts Poppy Seeds tasted great in our Lemon Blueberry Muffins this morning.

You Can Switch a Few Things Out if Needed: 

• Coconut Oil instead of Butter

• Sour Cream or Low Fat Plain Yogurt instead of Greek Yogurt

• Brown or White Sugar instead of Coconut Sugar

• Bread Flour or Costco's Gluten Free All Purpose Flour instead of All Purpose Flour

• Chia Seeds instead of Poppy Seeds - The review was for Poppy Seeds, so of course I used Poppy Seeds instead of Chia Seeds. 

What's your favorite kind of muffin?

This Morning We Had Blueberry Banana Tofu Smoothies

Maybe it's bad, but I didn't tell Daddy that Tofu was in his smoothie until he tried it. He doesn't usually like tofu. This time he liked it, so I told him. I wanted something that had a lot of good things in it because Isaak's been on a feeding, drinking strike. He's had a slight fever for two days and has been pretty moody.

Ingredients:

• 6 ounces soft tofu
• 1 medium banana (Mine was frozen and sliced)
• 2/3 cup milk (I used cows milk this time. I was thinking of using almond milk)
• 1 cup blueberries (Mine were frozen)
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 2 -3 ice cubes (Optional) 

**I thought about adding probiotics to Isaak's smoothie since he's been under the weather. I didn't because he hasn't been drinking much. I thought that he may not finish his. As it turns out, he didn't finish it. I'm going to add that usually Isaak's a good eater. He really just doesn't feel good.

Preparation:

• Drain the soft tofu to remove excess water.
• You can use fresh fruit, but it will make the smoothie more runny.
• Blend the banana, tofu and milk for 30 seconds. 
• Add the frozen blueberries, honey and ice cubes and process until smooth. 
• Enjoy!
