Longevity Smoothie

(192 Cal) Smoothies are a great way to concentrate nutrients easily and for on-the-go. This recipe is a my take on the Atomic or Fountain of Youth smoothie.

Oat and Quinoa Breakfast Bake

(376 Cal) I’ve always loved breakfast bakes. They are generally easy to bring together and the aroma of baking fruit and spices is so comforting, especially on a cold morning.

Superhero Muffins

(245 Cal) This recipe comes from the cookbook “Rise & Run” by Shalane Flanagan & Elyse Kopecky. We have made a few modifications to it(especially replacing the coconut oil) to make it a bit more healthy. That being said, this muffin is fantastic and has won awards.

Lemon Chia Blueberry Muffin

(243 Cal) We modified these muffins a bit and we loved the results. This muffin is reminiscent of the standard lemon poppy seed muffin, but a whole lot healthier. You won’t feel cheated with this muffin!

Banana Apple Muffins

(264 Cal) What is great about these muffins is that they are easy to bring together, are very nutritious and taste great! This particular muffin is not overly sweet, all of its sweetness coming from fruit and carrots, with no added sweeteners.

Shakshuka With Feta

Shakshuka is an egg dish that originated in North Africa but there are versions of this in many cultures (Eggs in Purgatory from Southern Italy for example). This is a fantastic eggs for dinner recipe, but if you like a hearty, savory breakfast (and we think you should) you will love this dish. The whole thing is made in one skillet by first making the sauce then nestling the eggs in the sauce to poach.

Perfect Poached Eggs

Poaching eggs can seem daunting, but with a little practice and following this technique you can make great poached eggs at home. There are a few points to keep in mind. First of all the fresher the eggs, the less likely they are to leave stringy whites on the edges of your poached eggs. Second you want to fill a large saute pan with at least three inches of water and add a tablespoon of vinegar to the water. The vinegar will also help to combat stringy egg whites. Also, you do not want to crowd the pan so do not add more that 4 eggs to the pan. Give this a try.

Quinoa Breakfast Bowl with Poached Eggs

This recipe was inspired by a Breakfast bowl on the the menu at the beautiful Civana Resort and Spa located in Carefree, Arizona. Our office happens to be on the grounds of this wonderful place and we often have breakfast there. Chef Justin Macy came up with this and we wanted to try our hand at something similar.
