[recipe] Everyone needs a homemade hot chocolate recipe because the store-bought powder and syrup is super processed, full of additives and unnecessary ingredients.

Then, one day it dawned on me how my kids were growing up not knowing what a milkshake was. What kind of mother was I?! :) Milkshakes were [...]
[recipe] While this isn't the most nutritious meal, I want to point out, there is a big difference between refined, highly processed pancakes and pancakes made with whole grain real ingredients.
