Pancake Pizza Mash-Up
Pancake meets pizza. A love child is born. And I’m smitten. Pancake pizza is my latest brainchild fueled by too much coffee and too many fresh berries. What’s a girl to do but find a way to put that caffeinated energy to use in developing a simple morning treat that you and kiddos will love! This pancake pizza features my favorite oatmeal blender pancakes smothered with crunchy pecan butter, homemade jam, fresh berries and a drizzle of syrup. It’s that easy! Slice into the recipe details and more ideas for toppers below.

June Favorites
Serendipity is finding exactly what you’re looking for, without looking for it. Like this mural I happened upon while wandering Logan Square. It was serendipitous that 1.) the wall perfectly matched my fav new heels and 2.) it started pouring 2 seconds after this photo was taken. When it rains it pours and June was jam-packed with a flurry of activity. It’s those moments of joy before you even know what’s coming at you that make the journey though. Let’s flashback to a few of my June favorites over the last month below.

Pop it like it’s hot
Poppin’ these paleo pop tarts like I’m back in the 5th grade skipping down the street with my Lisa Frank Trapper Keeper in clean white Keds. Except these aren’t your average sugar laden pop tarts. Made with clean ingredients so you can happily snack while you Skip-It. Totally aging myself at this point, but if you want to take a trip down memory lane, check out the dEATs for these Paleo Pop Tarts with Strawberry Chia Jam.
