Blueberries & Cream Baked Oatmeal Squares


Since the oatmeal squares went over so well, I had to make them again.  Big A has had cross country practices twice a week at 8:15am and this is the perfect thing to give the girls to eat for breakfast when we are rushing to get out the door early.  This time I changed things up with berry good results!

Blueberries & Cream Baked Oatmeal Squares

2 cups non-dairy milk (vanilla or plain, unsweetened)
1/4 cup granular stevia
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/4 cup flax meal
1 scoop(28g) berry flavoured vegan protein powder (I used this one)
2 cups oats
1/2 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup fresh or frozen blueberries

Bring 1 cup of the milk, stevia and vanilla to a boil in a small pot over medium heat.  Remove from heat and whisk in flax.  Set aside. Combine oats and baking soda in a large bowl.  Pour in flax mixture and remaining 1 cup of milk and stir until well mixed.  Scrape batter into greased 9x9 square pan.  Bake at 350F for 18-20 minutes, until centre is set.  Let cool.  Ice if desired, and then cut into 16 squares.  Keep refrigerated for up to 7 days, or freeze. Serve warm or cold.

Icing: 1 scoop berry flavoured vegan protein powder, 1/2 cup powdered erythritol, 1/2 tsp beet juice powder (for colour, if desired),1/2 cup non-dairy milk.  Whisk together all ingredients in a small bowl and spread over top of squares before cutting. 

I have added this recipe to Urban Naturale's Healthy, Happy, Green and Natural Link-Up and Vegetarian Mamma's Gluten-Free Friday.

Book Review: The A to Z of Children's Health

Hey there, welcome to Monday!  We had a delightful, relatively quiet weekend.  How was yours?  Hopefully no one in your home was sick...there is a lot of nasty stuff going around these days. If you're a parent, than you have probably spent far more time that you would like to desperately searching Google and/or parenting books trying to figure out if your child's rash, cough or fever warrants a trip to the doctor or if there is something that can be done to treat it.  It's hard not to worry that it could be something more ominous that just an every day infection and while you'd make yourself (and everyone around you) nuts if you panicked every time your kid has the sniffles, as a parent, you naturally want to do everything in your power to prevent your child from harm. Recently I was sent The A to Z of Children's Health , written by doctors Jeremy Friedman, Natasha Saunders, and Norman Saunders, of Toronto's very own Hospital for Sick Children .  One of th

How to Look Like a Celebrity

Okay, I know you're going to be interested in this post! I am sure virtually every woman in North America has wondered how Hollywood celebrities achieve such 'perfect' bodies.  Well, at CAN FIT PRO last week, one of Hollywood's top fitness trainers, Eric the Trainer , was there to tell us fitness professionals the secrets! Eric the Trainer, gave several presentations, and I caught the one on Celebrity Secrets, and it was most interesting!!!  I also found some of what he said rather disturbing. First off, he was very upfront about the fact that celebrities come to him for improve their appearance.  Not to improve their health or athletic performance.  To look their best.  He admitted that his approach then, is entirely dedicated to that end. Male and female celebrities are trained in completely different ways because Hollywood wants women to be lithe and thin and in his words, "look like they dropped out of heaven looking this way without every having ste

Blackfly Coolers: Product Review

Summer is over! Well, at least if you're a student. Officially it doesn't end for a few weeks, and it certainly still feels like summer. Yeah, I hate it. This f*cking hot, humid weather needs to end NOW! We made the most of our last weekend of the summer with our annual trip to the CNE on Friday, with a crowd of friends. It wasn't unbearably lot, thank goodness, and the girls and their friends had a blast on the rides.  Saturday I had to work, and Sunday was errand day. Monday we took the girls berry/apple/pear picking but didn't last long due to the heat. I organized the house to prepare for the construction workers starting back up yesterday, while Adam took the girls for a swim in our neighbourhood pool. Yesterday was the first day of school. Grade 2 and Grade 5. Yep, the girls are growing up.  We are fortunate that the girls don't have much anxiety about school, they are so much more confident than I ever was as a kid! But now, in the midst of our reno ch
