Fried Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwiches

These are my favorite sandwich. Hands down. I could eat one every day.
2 slices of whole wheat bread
peanut butter (we used coconut peanut butter and regular)
banana
butter
cinnamon

slice the banana thin, spread the peanut butter on the bread and assemble sandwich. Cover the outside of the sandwich with butter. Cook on cast iron griddle til golden and crispy. Sprinkle with cinnamon while hot.

Stuffed Quesadillas



Homemade tortillas
kidney beans, about 2 cups
spinach, chopped
corn
2 potatoes, diced
garlic
cooked quinoa, about 1 cup
shredded cheese

Warm some oil in a pan and toss in the garlic to brown. Then add beans, spinach, corn potatoes, quinoa and any other veggies or beans you would like. Cook long enough to wilt the spinach and soften the potatoes. Load all of that into a homemade tortilla with some cheese and cook on cast iron pan til the cheese melts. Serve with avacado, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream, etc.

Chocolate snacks

I dont even know what to call these. BUT THEY ARE DELICIOUS!!!!

I was rummaging thru my cupboards trying to come up with a quick snack to make with my kids.

Heres what we came up with. No measurements, just throw in whatever you like.

ground flax
12 grain cereal (dry)
coconut
raisins
walnuts, chopped
almonds, chopped
dried blueberries
chocolate, we used some organic dark

Combine all the dry ingredients and melt the chocolate on the stove. Mix them together til they are combined well, you dont want it too runny. Add more cereal if its too runny. Scoop onto wax paper to harden. We made them pretty small(ish) so we could just pop them in our mouths.
