Some new recipes!

Hey everyone! I know it's been a while but I have some new recipes to add. Nothing MAJOR but I promise to be better about blogging my clean creations.

Clean Cucumber Salad

I cucumber sliced up, sea salt and pepper to taste, 1 tbsp balsamic vinegar - mix it alllll together and enjoy

Banana Molasses Bran Muffins


  • 1C wheat bran
  • 1 1/2C whole wheat flour
  • 1 1/4 C buttermilk
  • 1/2 C Molasses (honey works and gives a milder flavor)
  • 1/2tsp salt
  • 1/2tsp baking powder
  • 1tsp baking soda
  • 1/8C vegetable oil
  • 1 egg
  • 1 mashed banana
  • eat clean cooking spray
Mix all ingredients together in a large bowl (the orignial recipe calls to mix the dry first, then the wet ingredients and then mix all together...I never do this and it turns out fine). This makes about 12 muffins (spray muffin tin with cooking spray). Bake at 375 degrees for 18 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.

Clean Greek Salad

Spinach (washed and ready to go!)
Grape tomatoes (washed and cut in half)
1/2 cucumber sliced into thin slices
Kalamata olives (buy pitted olives to make it easier, you can add them whole or slice them into pieces)
Cheese (feta or parm would be good, I actually use cottage cheese)
Chicken breast or shrimp (optional)

Mix all salad ingredients together first and add cheese of your choice, in a small bowl mix balsamic vinegar and olive oil (depending on salad size usually I do twice as much balsamic as olive oil) and add fresh ground pepper to the top. ENJOY!

Another dressing option is to mix 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar with 1 tbsp deli mustard, mix together and pour over salad. This is especially good if the salad has chicken breast.
