Welcome to the weekend, lovelies. This week FLEW by! I spent the week testing recipes because we’re shooting all of our February (and some of March) next week. By the way, we’re still peeling through the results of the annual AK reader survey and determining what kind of recipes you’d like to see more of in 2016! Thank you so much for filling that out! It’s incredibly helpful. I want to make sure that I’m providing you with a variety of recipes which encourage you to enjoy and prepare nutritious, healthy meals (and treats).
What else? I’ve been having a blast making breakfast this week with some of my old favorites. Oatmeal bakes, smoothie bowls, etc. Now that I wake up at 5:15am, when 7am rolls around I’m usually starving. Below you’ll see one of my favorite, easy breakfasts: Cottage Cheese Oatmeal Banana Pancakes covered in bananas and almond butter.
I have to run go get a workout in, but I want to share with you some of my favorite things from this past week:
My new blog crush.
PALEO CHOCOLATE CHUNK COOKIES THAT RULE THE UNIVERSE. But, seriously.
How to care for wool and cashmere sweaters. SO helpful.
Loving these super fresh game day recipes.
Ben and Jerry’s new Vegan Ice Cream line looks KILLER.
Closet organization 101 from Ms. Shutterbean
If you missed me on the Jess Lively Show, you can listen here!
FYI: The USDA isn’t labeling grass fed meat or dairy anymore. Interesting.
I want to make this stir-fry then lick my plate clean.
A list of the best protein powders to try. What’s your fav?
I purchased a few flavors of these at Whole Foods and can’t wait to try.
I hope you have the absolute best weekend. Enjoy the game, if you’re watching! xo.

Those oatmeal cottage cheese banana pancakes look to die for! I also checked out that blog and it’s stunning! Just watched the Paleo chocolate chunk cookies–loved it and the cookies look so good!
Your weekly roundups are always so awesome. I can’t believe I’ve never seen that brand of cottage cheese at Whole Foods. Do you eat it plain or with other things?
Thank you so much for pointing out that movie. Just the trailer gave me goosebumps. I can not wait to see it. I’m going to look for the book first. Thank you:)
I made your Cottage Cheese Oatmeal Banana Pancakes twice last week and they are sooo good!! New favorite!
