Enjoying Blueberries on Vacation

I'm back! The hubby and I just returned from a fabulous vacation in northern Minnesota, the land of wild blueberries.

Despite being on vacation, I was able to eat a hearty helping of natural whole foods.

My favorite meal, which I had twice by the way, was a blueberry salad. A bed of fresh greens was topped with plump blueberries, toasted pecans, blue cheese crumbles and a drizzle of maple syrup vinaigrette. Delicious!

Have you been enjoying any early spring produce yet?
I hope to get my garden planted within the next week or two.

Until Next Time,

Blueberry Flax Seed Pancakes

How are you eating healthy today? I'm serving up a plate of blueberry-flax seed pancakes for breakfast.

No, there's no recipe. I simply tossed a handful of blueberries and a few tablespoons of milled flax seed into my gluten-free pancake batter. I like the extra nutrition and the flavor!

On our honeymoon we indulged in wild rice and blueberry pancakes several mornings. It's a popular breakfast treat in Northern Minnesota. Since I don't have wild rice on hand, I used flax seed for the nutty flavor and texture.

What do you like to add to your pancakes to make them healthier?

Until Next Time,
Choose Healthy!
