● 2/3 cup extravirgin olive oil

● 4 eggs ● ½ cup water or milk of your

choice

● 2

teaspoons vanilla extract

● 1

teaspoon ground cinnamon + extra to top

● 1

teaspoon salt

● 3 ½ cups wholewheat flour

● 1 cup honey or maple syrup

● 2 cups mashed overripe bananas

● 2

teaspoons baking soda

● 1 cup mix-ins like nuts, raisins, etc.

(optional) Directions:

1. Grease 2 loaf pans (9 x 5 inches each) with cooking spray.

2. Whisk together honey and oil in a bowl, with a hand whisk. Whisk in the eggs.

3. Next, add milk and bananas and whisk well. Whisk in the vanilla, baking soda, cinnamon, and salt.

4. If you are adding the mix-ins, add now and stir gently.

5. Add flour and stir using a spatula until just incorporated. Divide the batter among the loaf pans.

6. Scatter some cinnamon on top and swirl the batter with a knife, to mix the cinnamon lightly.

7. Set up the temperature of your oven to 325° F and preheat the oven. Place loaf pans in the oven and bake for about 50 – 60minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through inside which can be checked by inserting a toothpick in the center of the loaf. Remove the toothpick and if you find any particles stuck on the toothpick, you need to bake for another 5 – 10 minutes.

9. Cut each loaf into 10 slices and serve.

Veggie Egg Cups Number of servings: 4 Nutritional values per serving: Calories – 154 Fat – 9 g Carbohydrate – 12 g Fiber – 1 g Protein – 7 g Ingredients:

● 2 mini, wholewheat

Brioche buns, split

● ¼ cup diced bell pepper of any color

● ¼ cup feta cheese crumbles

● Salt to taste

● ¼ cup diced

tomatoes

● 1

tablespoon chopped dill

● 1/8

teaspoon pepper or to taste

● 2 eggs

● ¼ cup diced

tomatoes Directions:

1. Whisk eggs in a bowl. Add salt and pepper and whisk well.

2. Add tomatoes, bell pepper, and feta cheese and stir until well combined.

3. Carefully pinch out the bun from the middle of each bun half (from the cut part), making sure to leave the bottom intact. The bun half should look like a cup. Press the bottom of the buns and the sides as well so that it remains slightly firm.

4. Keep the egg cups on a nonstick baking sheet, with the scooped side facing up.

5. Pour some of the egg mixture into each piece of bun. Let it rest for a couple of minutes. The bun would soak some of the egg.
