Easy PB+J Chia Overnight Oats
The Sunday Scaries are a real thing!
One way I ease my worry about Monday morning is by prepping breakfast for my family the night before.
And guess what? It doesn't have to be complicated.
My Easy PB + J Chia Overnight Oats are a simple way to give your family wholesome nutrition. We find indivicual containers for each person to feel special and then my kids can "decorate" with their dollop of nut butter (or chopped nuts) and smashed berries.
Easy peasy!

Nightshade-Free Rainbow Green Shakshuka
Shakshuka is an easy, healthy breakfast recipe in Israel and other parts of the Middle East and North Africa that usually combines simmering tomatoes, onions, garlic, spices and and poached eggs.
But sometimes nightshades - which includes tomatoes, bell peppers, eggplant and certain spices like paprika - can be hard on those with a sensitivity to this class of plants. This can present as extra achey joints or digestive issues. So we’ve created a GREEN shakshuka without traditional tomatoes and added a little pizazz with rainbow Swiss chard and red onions..
