Tofu Scramble {breakfast, vegan, gluten-free}

This is for those looking for something new to fix for breakfast. Truthfully, I don't eat tofu or soy very often but I do love it for an occasional swap out. I think it's delish in spicy Pad Thai or here as a substitute for eggs. Click here for the recipe. Enjoy! ...click here for the recipe!

Overnight Vanilla Chia Pudding {easy, gluten-free, breakfast, snack}

I was SO skeptical that I would even like this. I was pleasantly surprised and I really love it! It's really tasty! It took me a fair amount of trial and error to find the right ratio for the perfect creamy pudding texture. Also, be sure to wait the 5 minutes and give it a good shake to help distribute the chia seeds evenly, it makes all the difference! We drink Organic unsweetened almond milk so that's what I used, but cow's milk or any other non-dairy milk substitutes, such as oat milk, rice milk or soy milk, would work also.
