Two Ingredient Pancakes

Happy National Pancake Day!!!

I am loving these awesome food holidays! Yesterday I celebrated National Frozen Yogurt Day with my friend Brett at Yogurtland for a free yogi and toppings. The line went well around the corner of the store, but it moved petty fast. I went with plain/tart and topped it with kiwi, yogurt covered raisins, and yogurt chips, mmmm!

Instead of going to IHOP for their oh so tempting free and very caloric pancakes, I have some ultra skinny and healthy two ingredient pancakes for you! Celebrate this tasty holiday with a batch of gluten free, flour-less, and protein packed pancakes! They’re so sweet, you may not even want syrup!

Serves 1

2 eggs
1 very ripe banana

my favorite additions:
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1/8 tsp cinnamon

Mash the ripened banana with hands or a fork until smooth and set aside. Beat two eggs and then add to the mashed banana. Add vanilla and cinnamon into the batter if desired. Generously spray a pan with nonstick or olive oil cooking spray and turn the stove to medium heat. Using a 1 Tbsp measuring spoon, scoop a spoonful of batter and pour into the pan. Flip the pancakes once the edges become cooked. Allow the pancakes to cook through. Respray the pan with nonstick spray between each set of pancakes. Enjoy!
Note: Start with a lower heat since the pancakes can burn easily. Each pancake takes a couple of minutes to cook.
Another Note: Nonstick cooking pans help making the pancakes easier to make.

Chobani Muffin For One + Giveaway

Motivation Monday: “I don’t sweat, I sparkle!”

Sooo my Q&A did not end up happening on Friday, or even Saturday… but it will be here this week! Trust me, I don’t get my stitches out until August 30th, so there is still plenty of time for me to type away on the couch. There are only so many times that I can see Happy Feet, Kung Fu Panda, and Pirates of the Caribbean on TV. This past weekend turned out to be much busier than I planned. Or maybe it just seemed busier because everything I did ended up taking 10 times as long with my gimpy foot and crutches in tow. My birthday celebrations continued with the arrival of one of my very best friends Kelsie flying in from NY and another birthday dinner with my volunteer group. Amongst the birthday festivities, I still had a few minutes for a healthy baking recipe that is “nothing but good.”


Chobani naturally powered 5 US athletes to the Olympic Games in London 2012, bringing 2 gold medals home for Team Chobani!
I don’t know about you, but I was so happy to see Chobani sponsoring Team USA at this years Olympics. It’s such a refreshing change to see something that athletes most likely consume, compared to unhealthy fast food like McDonald’s being promoted. The more Chobani commercials I saw throughout the games, the less Chobani I saw on the shelves at my local grocer. It looks like their advertising worked, go CHO!

Who said muffins can’t be make for a healthy breakfast? Today I have a recipe for a super moist, fluffy single serving muffin made with Chobani’s new Vanilla Chocolate Chunk Greek Yogurt. This little treat is baked without any oil or butter, making for a light protein filled muffin with healthy ingredients. If you’re anything like me, making one dozen muffins is just dangerous. You no longer have to be afraid of eating one too many muffins, because this is a muffin for one. For someone who always wants “just one more” or someone who lives alone, your problem has been problem solved!


Chobani Muffin For One
Serves 1

4 Tbsp Chobani Vanilla Chocolate Chunk Greek Yogurt
3 Tbsp whole wheat flour
1 Tbsp liquid egg whites
1 Tbsp chia seeds
1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1/4 tsp or 1 packet of stevia
1/4 tsp baking powder

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine all ingredients and stir until well mixed. Pour the batter into a cupcake liner in a muffin tin. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Enjoy warm out of the oven.
Note: This recipe would also work great with other Chobani flavors such s cherry or blueberry where there are chunks of real fruit!

Take 5 Salad Dressing

Congratulations to my DOLE Salad Circle Party giveaway winner, Vanessa G!
” My favorite salad ingredient is juicy, red tomatoes. :) I told my teacher friends I work with about the giveaway. I hope that counts as points! You know how teachers love free stuff! Haha. I’d love to win so we can have a salad party. :) ”
Enjoy! xo

Holy guacamole, yesterday was absolutely crazy! As you may know, I launched my official online store with my signature “EAT MORE RABBIT FOOD” shirts! In under 30 minutes I was sold out of all size large and extra larges! WOW, seriously made me blush! I received tons of emails asking for shirts, but I never could’ve imagined them selling this fast! Your support is truly amazing! It’s just me, myself, and I running my blog, Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Instagram, Email, and now my store, so I really appreciate your patience and support! In a few short hours I had a triple digit number of orders that I am now organizing and shipping to their recipients. I am sooo excited for you guys to get your shirts! Because of the super quick sales, the online shop is down for some maintenance and updating, but it should be back shortly, since I still have some shirts available for purchase.

This whole online store thing is brand new to me and I am quickly learning so much. For example, I need to find shirts that are available in more sizes! I have been getting quite a few comments and messages about shirts not being available in larger sizes, and this is a great suggestion for my next batch of shirts! Since the first day that I launched my blog, I have been receiving inquiries about the “EAT MORE RABBIT FOOD” shirt that I am wearing in my main photos. By popular demand, I did everything that I could to get the exact same heather green American Apparel racerback to sell on my site. Unfortunately American Apparel only offers a small variety of shirts in this color, which left me with my favorite racerback in sizes XS-L and a women’s T-shirt from S-XL, so I made sure to order every size available!

I in no way shape or form intended to exclude anyone from being able to buy a certain sized shirt. I have been the girl who didn’t fit clothes at a “regular” store before and I know how it feels to leave empty handed and never wanted that to happen on my own website. I’m still getting the hang of things and learning what everyone wants to see on RFFMBT! This was only the first round of RFFMBT shirts and I’m positive that there will be many more to come.That being said, I would love YOUR input on what YOU would like to see in the next round of shirts/merch! I have had all different types of suggestions from gym bags, to socks, and some different clothing brand options! One reader suggested that I look into Just My Size by Hanes for a variety of sizes and comfy basics to print on!

What would you like to see in the RFFMBT Store? New styles, brands, sizes, colors, designs?
I can’t wait to hear your ideas!



Since I announced my DOLE Salad Circle Party Giveaway winner today, I thought that it was appropriate to give you guys a salad dressing recipe! Today’s super simple recipe comes from none other than Chef AJ. She has created a sweet and tangy, fat-free, plant based salad dressing that takes only 5 ingredients to make! What a woman! This is a fabulous addition to salads that already contain your recommended serving of plant based fat. Say your salad already includes nuts or avocado… just drizzle one tablespoon of naturally fat-free Take 5 Salad Dressing for great flavor and balance. This can also be used as a dip for veggies i.e. sliced bell pepper, carrots, and broccoli!

Take 5 Salad Dressing
Makes nine 1 Tbsp servings

2 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp lemon juice
2 Tbsp low-sodium miso paste (I use Kyoto White Low-Sodium Miso Paste)
2 Tbsp date syrup or maple syrup
1 Tbsp dijon (preferably low-sodium)

Combine all ingredients in a small jar or container with lid and shake shake shake, shake shake shake, shake your dressing. shake your dressinggggg!
Note: If you have never purchased miso paste before, it can usually be found in the refrigerated soy/dairy/yogurt section of most grocery stores. I buy mine at whole foods.

Have a fabulous weekend! xo

Spicy Korean Tacos

RFFMBT was down for about an hour today due to extremely high traffic! I was so worried that I would lose some of my content or even contest entries for the DOLE Salad Circle Party Giveaway! All is good and no content was lost! I took care of the server issue and am back up and running and hit 2.3 million views OMG! No wonder my server was freaking out! Thank you so much to everyone who reads, shares, likes, follows, tweets, pins, or comments on my blog. You are AMAZING!

I really wanted to recreate a dish that I once had from a food truck called Calbi. The Calbi truck is always driving around different areas of LA serving up some amazing Korean BBQ and Asian fusion treats. They serve up tons of delicious Korean style dishes with an awesome twist: filled into tortillas making Korean burritos and tacos! Ummm can you say brilliant? Burritos and tacos are awesome, and next up, I really want to try the Jogasaki truck which makes sushi burritos! I’m drooling now. I want sushi for din!


Here is my take on the Calbi truck’s Tofu Tacos! Made with my favorite Asian hot sauce: Sriracha. Sriracha, originally from Thailand is very popular among Asian cuisines such as Chinese, Vietnamese, and Korean. If you’re like me Sriracha is not limited to Asian foods, and goes on practically anything and everything!  Made from chili, sugar, salt, garlic, and distilled vinegar, Huy Fong Foods’ Sriracha (also knows as “Rooster Sauce” in the US – due to it’s iconic label) sauce adds a nice fiery kick of spice and flavor to your dish.

Any other Sriracha fans out there?!



Spicy Korean Tacos
Serves 1

2 soft taco sized whole corn tortillas
1 cup shredded cabbage
1 cup shredded carrot
1/2 cup low-sodium vegetable broth
1/5 package extra firm tofu
1 Tbsp Sriracha
1 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce or Tamari
1/2 Tbsp sesame oil
1/2 Tbsp sesame seeds

Remove tofu from packaging. Remove as much water as possible by pressing/squeezing firmly with paper towel to absorb excess liquid. Cut the tofu into 1 inch cubes. Pour the sesame oil, soy sauce, and Sriracha into a pan/skillet and mix together. Set stove to medium/high heat. Add the cubed tofu into the pan and cook on each side for about 3 minutes until edges become firm and center is warmed through. Once the tofu has finished cooking, remove it from the pan and set aside. In the same pan, add the low sodium vegetable broth, cabbage, and carrots. The vegetables will pick up the flavoring from the broth and extra sauces left in the pan. Cook the vegetables over the stove for about 2-3 minutes or until they have reached your desired firmness. Strain any excess vegetable broth from the pan. Heat the corn tortillas with a damp paper towel (to avoid cracking) for 20 seconds. Place the tofu and vegetable mixture onto the tortillas and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Note: If sesame oil is unavailable, olive oil will still give great results.
