Veggie chicken meatballs
Yet another meatball that I threw together last night. I decided to add some veggies to this one.
I have to admit, this wasnt just a healthy clean eatin meatball dinner. Sometimes my family gets bored of meatballs and wants to mix it up a little...SOMETIMES, I let that happen. So tonight, I made healthy meatballs for me and nothing healthy about these Pancakes for my daughter. But thats ok..breakfast dinner is always a fun change.

And these are the veggie meatballs. I made a huge pan of them and put them in this little foil containers for the freezer so I will have meatballs whenever I want them. Kind of a risk, being that I didnt really know how they would turn out, but they turned out delish
VEGGIE MEATBALLS
3 lbs Organic ground chicken
1 large White Onion
1 small Red onion
2 zucchinis
seasoning
Garlic powder
Ground oats
Flax seed
Put chicken in bowl. Ground oats in food processor and put in bowl. Cut up Onions and zucchinis and chop in food processor. Add onions and zuccchini and all other ingredients into chicken bowl. Use as much as you feel necessary. I like a little bit moister meatball so I dont add alot of dry ingredients. But add as much as you feel necessary for you. Spray fry with olive oil or coconut oil. You do not need to use alot of oil as the chicken will release some juices. Add the meatballs and cover and cook.
Everything Blended veggie smoothie
I made this last night. Apparently my body was needing fruits and veggies because I put a good variety in there.
EVERYTHING BLENDED
Kale

No more plastic travel cups
Last week, I dropped and broke my two favorite PLASTIC travel cups and that my friend was the end of my plastic cups.
So thanks to my wonderful husband, I now have a glass travel cup, complete with my new stainless steel straws. He drilled a hole in the top of my canning jar lid to fit the straw. YEAHHH

Goat cheese Chicken Meatballs
I LOVE MEATBALLS!
This particular one is the goat cheese meatball. Goat cheese has become my favorite cheese and if I ever decide to get risky, Im going to use my blueberry vanilla goat cheese inside a meatball. Be waiting for it.
GOAT CHEESE MEATBALLS
In my home, we have meatballs a couple days a week. they are so easy, so full of protein and just a great overall snack. When traveling I always make a heap of meatballs to snack on. So you will see all sorts of meatball recipes on this blog. I dont measure things out so you'll often see I just give the ingrediants and you can season and add to your own liking.

True story - thinning hair
I was recently talking to an old friend, she was telling me that her hair is thinning really bad. She has always had really thin hair to begin with and I saw her a year ago and I agreed. So I told her what I knew to do, through research only, I have never tried it myself. The other day she called me and left me a message to tell me that within 2 weeks time she can already tell a difference and she has had other people notice too...So I thought Id not only brag about my knowledge haha but also share the remedy I shared with her. Both Sage oil and Rosemary oil are natural hair growth stimulants.
AS ALWAYS, PLEASE MAKE SURE THESE ESSENTIAL OILS DO NOT INTERFERE WITH ANY MEDICATION YOU MIGHT BE ON.
Combine a few drops of essential oil rosemary in a carrier oil of either jojoba, almond, grapeseed oil. Massage into scalp.
Combine a few drops of essential oil sage in a carrier oil of either jojoba, almond or grapeseed oil. Massage into scalp.
Combine a few drops of either sage or rosemary oil in with your shampoo.
You can do Rosemary one day and Sage the next, you can do the Rosemary in shampoo one day and skip shampooing the next day and just massage the sage and carrier in following day.
Just make sure you do something every day. This friend said she has done it for 2 weeks only and always a noticeable difference. Pin It
