Breakfast

Most important meal of the day to boost metabolism, fat burning hormones and gain muscles.

Oatmeal

For a single serving with 1/2 cup of oats, that means you’ll need 1 cup of liquid.

ON THE STOVE

  • Boil water. In a small pot, bring the water or milk and salt to a boil over medium-high heat.

  • Cook the oats. Stir in the oats then reduce the heat to medium-low. Let it simmer for about 5 minutes to let the liquid absorb, while stirring occasionally.

  • Top and serve. Add flavorful toppings, a drizzle of milk if you’d like, and enjoy.

    IN THE MICROWAVE

  • Combine: The water or milk, oats, and salt in a bowl. Give it a quick stir.

  • Heat: Microwave the bowl (uncovered) on high for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. The oats will start to bubble a bit, so it’s best to use a larger bowl.

  • Top and serve: Again, you can add flavorful toppings, a drizzle of milk, maple syrup, etc., and enjoy.

  • Add in berries and fruits for that added nutrients

Have you all heard of a cheat meal? Well, this is your cheat snack after all those healthy meals!

CBD Honey Churros

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 cup all purpose flour

  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder

  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

  • 2 tablespoons Lit Spice Honey Churro Seasoning

  • 4 cups sugar

  • 3 tablespoons coconut oil

  • 1 cup water

  • Vegetable oil, for frying

  • 1/4 unsweetened applesauce

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

DIRECTIONS:

In a large mixing bowl, mix flour with baking powder, salt, two tablespoons of sugar and set aside. In a shallow pan or dish, whisk the 4 cups of sugar and cinnamon until it’s well combined and set aside. This will be used for coating the churros.

Preheat your oven to 240°F. Transfer the churro dough to a piping bag with a #2d tip at the end then pour about 2 inches of vegetable oil into a high-sided skillet and place it on the stove over medium-high heat until it reaches 375°F. Squeeze out a 6-inch strip of churro dough directly into the oil and fry for about 2 minutes on all sides until the churros are golden brown.

Once the churros are cooked, remove them from the oil using a fork or tongs onto a plate lined with paper towels to drain, then proceed to roll them in the cinnamon sugar mixture for coating.
