Nursing Mama Nuggets

I became a nursing mama for the 7th time in 2020. And, thanks to Trim healthy mama I feel that this has been one of my best post partum periods.

I have not needed a whole lot of support with teas or anything else, no extra pumping, I just eat lovely God-made foods that have helped my youngest beauty thrive while I have released weight consistently.

I have discovered two ingredients that have really kicked my production up, without me even trying to, consistently. Duo Greens powder and Oatmeal in any form.

So, I made these to help support a mama on the go, or those middle of the night nursing sessions that leave you floundering for something to stuff in your mouth so you can get back to sleep when the baby does.

I mix all the dry ingredients together and then add the Applesauce. Mix it until it comes together with no dry powder, and you can leave it in the bowl and eat it straight or make into a bar/balls.

Chili Mac

This recipe really brings back some memories. We ate chili mac, well really anything with macaroni and cheese, when my dad was away hunting. Mac was not his favorite food.

And, because our children have celiac disease, you can read more about that here, they had never had anything like it before. But, desperation is where recipes are born, so here is my gluten free rendition of this old favorite.

Pumpkin Baked Quinoa

This baked quinoa takes a simple seed, and turns it into a tasty breakfast or snack that can be made in advance and eaten hot or cold for busy days.

My kids really enjoyed it, and it helped mix up our oatmeal days, by providing a different flavor and texture profile.

Peanut, Cauliflower and Kale Curry

I love soup! If you’ve been around the Treehouse, then you will know that soup is how I get my choosy eaters to accept new textures with their sensory processing disorder.

It’s also something that I can add veggies to, without a chole lot of struggle, which is always helpful with lots of littles to feed, and a budget to stick to.

Did I say it was vegetarian AND meatless? Yes! Aren’t you excited now?

Ingredients

Method

Steam the frozen cauliflower in a pot with a lid until it is cooked. Place in a high-powered blender with the 1-2 cups of water, nutritional yeast, peanut powder and seasonings. Blend until completely smooth. Add back to the pot and then add the remaining ingredients and heat until simmering. Adjust tastes to your preferences, and serve with natural peanut butter, and optional toppings.

***This is an S meal on the Trim Healthy Plan, please enjoy this with some additional protein such as a fuel pull shake or a drink with a protein powder of your choice***

Fluffy Oat Pancakes

As the mother to 7 children, and believe me we may be completely gluten free, but pancakes are a universal language in the breakfast universe! A good recipe is worth its weight in maple syrup, pure grade A of course!

So, I set about to make one, just for my crew…..

It’s not an easy thing to transition to a gluten free lifestyle, because at first nothing tastes or acts right. Fluffy pancakes are few and far between, especially in the whole grain gluten free flour world.

But, I do believe these ones are the ONES! Even my husband thought the texture was amazing.

Ingredients

Method

Mix all dry ingredients together, with a whisk, until well combined. Add all your wet ingredients, except for the ACV or Lemon Juice (whichever you want to use). Mix well, and until there are no lumps. Then, add the vinegar or lemon juice. Let this mixture sit for at least 10-15 minutes to let the action happen.

Preheat a ceramic griddle, yes you can use a pan but make sure it is non-stick because oat flour is crazy sticky even with spray, to about 250 or 300 degrees. Then drop the batter by 1/4 Cup-fulls on the the surface and even out the surface so it is all the same thickness. Let the pancakes become very bubbly all over the top and “dry-ish” looking before you flip. Then, flip and let cook an additional 3 minutes.

***These are an E fuel on the Trim Healthy Plan, and approximately 1/4 of this recipe would be a serving size*** And, they go fantastically with my Maple-Nut Syrup!

Maple Nut Syrup

Growing up, the flavors of pancakes were peanut butter and mapleline…If you know, you know, right? On a really wonderful day, or when we visited my dad who was not a syrup maker at all, we got prepared pancake syrup.

In our house, between the gluten and the sugar, we stick with pure maple syrup or this syrup that I make to blend the best of my favorite flavors into one pot.

Ingredients

  • 1 Cup Defatted Peanut Powder, from here or here
  • 1 1/4 Cup water
  • two pinches of Mineral salt, we get ours from here or here
  • 1/2 teaspoon Stevia, we get ours from here or here
  • 1 teaspoon Maple Extract, from here or here

***peanut free mamas you can use Barney Butter in place of the defatted peanut powder***

Method

Put your dry and wet ingredients, except your Maple Extract, into a medium sauce pan. Whisk together until there are no lumps from the peanut flour. Whisk frequently, because the peanut powder can settle and scorch easily.

Heat on medium-high until it begins to thicken. This doesn’t take very long. Turn off the burner and add the maple extract and keep whisking until it cools enough not to scorch, but it does need the heat to continue to thicken.

***Use 1/4 Cup to keep this in a fuel pull range with the defatted peanut flour on the Trim Healthy Mama Plan, and make sure to eat this with another protein source to anchor your meal***
