Recipe: Apple Bagel
Similar to the apple burrito here at 3ten.ca, the apple bagel is perfect for a quick breakfast. Ingredients 2 apples – I like granny smith for this recipe 1/3 of a cup of peanut butter 2 tablespoons of chocolate chips First – wash and cut your apple. Cut the top off and the bottom, so it’s flat and sits nicely on the counter. Next, cut out the core. Now, cut the apple in two (crosswise), then again. Thus, each apple gives you 2 bagels, or…

Recipe: Cauliflower Pizza Crust
Cauliflower is the new kale – remember when restaurants were quick to feature their kale salad, or a savoury side dish of sautéed kale? Well, the new kid is in town, and he comes in many colours – even orange and purple! This pizza crust is great for those who don’t eat gluten or who are simply cutting back on wheat. Not only is it delicious, you can eat more than two pieces without having to hit the gym extra hard! Ingredients 2 lbs of…

Recipe: Apple Peanut Butter Burrito
Love peanut butter? Apples? A bit of chocolate? Need a quick breakfast in the morning? Apple peanut butter burritos are for you!! I usually make these on a day off – each recipe makes 2 – so I make 2 or 3 recipes and then freeze them. The best part, the night before just pop it in the fridge and grab-and-go in the morning. It’s easy to eat on the way to work and beats out any processed drive-thru item you could pick up. Plus,…

Recipe: Mango Roll-up Snack
Fruit is always a good snack, but sometimes it’s not so much fun to eat. This recipe turns mango into a fun roll-up snack! I’m sure you’ve seen the long post on Pinterest about mango fruit roll-ups – this one is a tad different – has more balance as far as flavour, but doesn’t compromise the natural fruit goal. Ingredients 3 mango 1 tablespoon of agave syrup 1/2 teaspoon of salt First – peel and cut the mango into chunks. Next – put them in…

Recipe: Butterfinger Brownie
It’s not very often that the grocery store has butterfingers – and little ones, ta-boot! This recipe is a combination of a couple and it’s fantastic! Remember my deadly brownie?

Ingredients 20-24 mini butterfingers bars 1 box of marble cake mix 1/2 cup of reese’s peanut butter chip 2 eggs 1/2 cup of canola oil 3 cups of salted pretzels 1 cup of butter 1/2 cup of sugar First –…

Recipe: Natural Red Velvet Cake
It’s Valentine’s Day tomorrow! Perfect time for a natural red velvet cake – and it’s naturally coloured, not with a whole bottle of chemical food colouring – yuck. What’s the secret? Beets! Also – my recipe is a bit on the healthier side with using bananas instead of butter. Ingredients 3 cups of cake flour 2 1/2 tablespoons of cocoa powder 1 teaspoon of kosher salt 2 teaspoons of baking powder 1 cup of mashed bananas (about 3) (or butter) 2 tablespoon vanilla extract 2…
