SNACKRIFICE: Low Carb Paleo Red Lobster Cheddar Biscuits with Honey Avocado spread feat. Wedderspoon Organic Honey

Growing up it was always one of my favorite things to go to Red Lobster for their Cheddar Biscuits. If you have every had one you know what I am talking about. Those little devils are loaded with artificial fillers that are 100% not good for you. A new series we are launching on the blog as well as on our youtube, is SNACKRIFICE, where we take unhealthy favorites and swap them out for a healthy version! I have been making a lot of Paleo food lately and avocados have become a staple in my daily diet. Savory warm bread and avocados? hmmm I felt like I was on to something. 

Then my friends at Wedderspoon had so kindly sent me their brand new Thyme Honey! I had been dying to use it in a new recipe. I was already using it in dressings and on my roasted vegetables, which by the way is a-mae-zing! The thyme honey is really unique in flavor and texture. The ancient Egyptians, Romans, and Greeks used this popular herd and it was thought to promote courage, aid in sleep along with its other healing properties. Wedderspoon is having a mae-jor sale until the end of February! I highly recommend giving their products a try! Also If you missed my last  post I featured  the Wedderspoon Beechwood Honey in my Vanilla Honey Nut Butter recipe. 

The biscuits can be mae-d a few different ways to fit your dietary needs. The great thing about these biscuits is you just need one bowl, no need to separate the dry from the liquid. 

Preheat your over to 375F Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly toasted at the top. 

Ingredients:

1/4 cup Water

2 Egg Whites

splash of almond milk ( more or less depending on consistency ) 

1 tsp Coconut Oil

1/4 cup Milled Flax Seed

1 tbs Coconut Flour

2 tbs Nutritional Yeast

1 tbs Protein Powder ( I used a brown rice protein, for paleo you can use pea or hemp)

2 Tb of Almond Flour ( for a more flaky biscuit continue to add almond flour till you have dough rather than a batter) 

1/4 tsp Sea Salt

1 tbs Garlic Powder

1 tbs Dried Onion

1 tbs Dried Parsley 

1/8 tsp Baking Soda

1/8 tsp Baking Powder 

Because mine were moist and sponge like when I store and eat them later I toast them :) 

Now for the avocado spread, I came up with two variations. Now these would be great with just the honey on them but I think you will all like these healthy spread alternatives. 

Lemon + Honey Avocado Spread

1/2 Avocado (mashed)

1 tsp Wedderspoon Organic Thyme Honey

1/2 Lemon Zest

The Juice of half a lemon

1 tsp Garlic Powder

1 tsp Onion Powder

Fresh Black Pepper and Sea Salt to taste

Chili + Honey Avocado Spread

1/2 Avocado (mashed)

1 tsp Wedderspoon Organic Thyme Honey

1/2 tsp Sweet Paprika

1/4 tsp Smokey Paprika

1/2 tsp Garlic Powder

1/4 tsp Onion Powder 

1/4 tsp Dark Chili Powder

Juice from Half a lime

dash of Cayenne Pepper

Fresh Black Pepper and Sea Salt to taste

How To: Be Mentally Strong

Woah Haley is getting all deep on you again :) 

Seriously though I really love sharing content like this because I think these are topics we subconsciously think about but people rarely touch on them. Anyone can write "how to happy 101". Don't stress, do what you love, etc.... but how do you actually DO those things. If you are searching for balance in your life whether you are in school, you have a career or you simply do not know what you want in life, then take a look at this video and Pin this chart :)

#Mae-d to LOVE Series

Happy February Movers!

Being that it is the LOVE month we wanted to share our thoughts on what it truly means to love.

Love comes in many forms. Loving others in a brotherly or romantic way. Loving your life and what you do on a daily basis. Self love, spiritual love, etc. The list goes on!

It can be so hard to love others when you have a harder time truly loving yourself first. We want to inspire you to dig deeper, we want to mae-k you think!

We will be providing you all with some quick and easy tools to help you learn to love yourself better!

For today we will keep it simple, list 5 things that you love about yourself. We know you can list at least five :) Maybe you are a great cook or baker? You like your hair or mae-b you are a good listener? Whatever it is, jot it down and through out the month look at your list, especially on the days when you are feeling negative about yourself. Remember regardless of who you think you are, you are a-mae-zing!

Home-Maed: Vanilla Honey Mixed Nut Butter feat. Wedderspoon Organic Honey

I am beyond excited about this post. Not only because its about food, but I have a new favorite product to share with you that has a ton of health benefits! Wedderspoon is a family owned company that provides their customers with ethical, premium organically certified Manuka Honey. This honey is the next best thing to gold and heres why. It is a superfood! Raw Honey contains live enzymes which have a long list of health benefits like aiding in digestion. Beechwood honey in particular is the one that I am using for this recipe. Beeachwood honey also contains Prebiotic's, not to be confused with probiotics, prebiotics still contain good bacteria but they actually have more health benefits! I am going to post a separate blog post just on Pro + Prebiotics tomorrow :)  

Now on to the mae-n event! I LOVE nut butters and when you break it down they can get pretty pricey when you are buying raw, organic, all real everything, delicious nut butters. I do not know if anyone can relate to this but everyone in my family has a favorite nut, a nut they do not like and then there are the nuts we fight over... pecans.... if you were wondering. So when we buy trail mix or bags of mixed nuts there are always leftovers, then we buy more bags, so we end up with bags of partially eaten nuts. Well theres an app for that... not really but I do have a solution. Grind it all up, flavor it and bam! you have home-maed nut butter! The flavor possibilities are endless and I will be posting others as I compile more bags of half eaten trail mix :) 

You can get your hands on some Wedderspoon Honey HERE ! 

This stuff is so yummy! It goes great with fresh fruit, carrots, celery or you can freeze it for 30 minutes to an hour for a healthy icing on top of your protein muffins ! 

A special thanks to Kelly + Alison from Wedderspoon for being so sweet to send us some of their a-mae-zing honey!

Love,

Haley

Classy vs. Trashy

I was hesitant posting this video because I do not want anyone to think I am being judgmental or dissing partying. That is not my motive. All I wanted to do was give my opinion and advice how to save yourself from making poor decisions that you might regret later. We all want respect, we need to present ourselves in a way that shows we respect ourselves first. Also College can be tricky to get the hang of. We all want to fit in but watch the video to see what I have to say about fitting in because we were not mae-d to fit in ;)

Let me know what you all think, remember this is out of love not judgment:)

Plus we have a really awesome print out for you! Its a pre-party checklist to help you get ready for a night out!
