Motivation can be an elusive idea. I often wonder why my body and mind fluctuate in their motivations throughout the year. I’ve spoken before how I am not a big believer in New Year’s resolutions, but rather find myself multiple times a year needing to refocus my energy toward being the best version of myself. That means paying attention to time spent with family and trying to cut down on time spent with my nose glued to my phone or my body plunked in front of the computer. That means becoming more active and finding activities that inspire me to keep going. That means taking care of my body with the food that I eat to make sure that I’m nourishing myself from the inside out.
At the beginning of this month, I started a daily yoga practice that has been a breath of fresh air. Every morning I wake up and start the day on my yoga mat and it has been amazingly restorative. It’s shocking that I actually look forward to getting up every morning at 5:45 but to me, that is a sign of finding great inspiration. That inspiration has motivated me to be more thoughtful about my eating, as well. During year when my kids are in school, I struggled to keep up with a regular eating routine. There were days that I would work all day not bothering to stop for a sit down meal and before I knew it, it was time to head out and pick them up. Now that they are home, it’s been much easier to sit down with them and make us all breakfast and lunch that will give us energy and stamina throughout the day. They are like little reminders to make sure that I’m taking care of not only them, but myself as well.
Best Flavored Milks (easy And Low Sugar!)
It’s appropriate that June is National Dairy Month because I have been have been feeling inspired to play around with some fun flavored milk recipes to enjoy with our breakfast and lunch. It’s so important for kids, and adults, to get high-quality protein at every meal, especially breakfast. One of the easiest ways that I have found to do that is to have us drink milk on a regular basis. An 8-ounce glass of milk with breakfast and lunch is a simple and wholesome way to provide 9 essential nutrients that our bodies need, including 8-grams of protein. I have noticed the days that I enjoy a glass of milk in the morning, that I am less likely to find myself scouring the pantry for less-than-ideal snacks before lunch.
My kids are big milk drinkers and during the school year they buy milk to go with their packed lunch every day. I love the addition of milk to their daily lunch because it’s the original farm-to-table food! Because the kids are home for the summer, we have been experimenting with some fun new milk flavors just using some of our standard pantry staples. We have had a couple of flavor fails in our attempts to create some exciting new flavored milk recipes (let’s just say that mango milk was not as good as it sounds due to the high amount of acid in the fruit) but we have had some really amazing victories, as well.
This milk is pretty incredible. We always tend to have bananas on the counter and for some reason, there is always one left that has gotten a bit over ripened. Yes, you could whip up a banana bread, but next time you have a slightly spotted banana staring you down from the counter, give this chocolate banana milk a try. The ripe banana brings all the sweetness you need and a small amount of unsweetened cocoa powder gives it a chocolatey kick. I have found that the cocoa powder and banana mix into the milk best if blended in a blender. If you have an emersion blender, that works well too! The creaminess from the banana makes a glass of fat free milk taste like a decadent treat. This was a hit all around, both the kids and the grownups loved this one.
Mango Flavoured Milk Cake In Two Layers Recipe By Shirin Qadir.🔪🔪🍩🍡🍨🍜🍛🍰🍦🍮🍝🎂🍹🍽️
This milk was inspired by the dredges of milk from a bowl of cinnamon toast cereal. You know that delicious cinnamon-y milk at the bottom of the bowl? So good. Well, for this we tried using honey as the sweetener with a touch of pure vanilla extract and a pinch of cinnamon. The results are quite delightful! Warmly spiced with just the right amount of sweetness.
Ok, so this one was a huge hit with me and an okay hit with the kids. While they preferred the other two varieties, this one was so lovely that I had to include it. I used culinary dried lavender to make a very easy lavender honey simple syrup. This stirred into a glass of fat free milk was like enjoying a cup of tea with milk and honey. To add an additional boost of flavor, trying stirring in a bit of matcha green tea powder. I honestly love it both ways! This is the flavor that I have been enjoying after my morning yoga sessions. I make a batch of the syrup to keep in the fridge so making a cup is quick and easy every morning.
I have a few other flavors that I’m trying out so stay tuned for those later in the summer. Creating flavored milk has been so inspiring in the kitchen and a great way to keep the kids excited about eating wholesome foods. I’d love to hear your ideas for flavored milk recipes! What are some flavors that inspire you?
