Yummy Breakfast Recipe

The roads are not good.  All evening classes are canceled.

Holiday Bodyweight Challenge - Day 32

We usually post recipes on Friday, but I'm feeling a bit squirrely, waiting for the snow to come.  This recipe is an adaptation of one we found in the CrossFit Kids Magazine.  It is super yummy, makes a good amount, and is super good for you!  Unfortunately, we don't have a picture to post. 

Apple Breakfast Bake

4 large apples, cored and coarsely chopped
1# sausage or ground pork
juice from 1 lemon
1/2 cup+ raisins
1/2 cup+ pecan or walnut pieces, very coarsely chopped
Coconut oil
Cinnamon
Almond meal

Set oven to 350*.  Place raisins in small bowl and toss with lemon juice.  Set aside.  Cook sausage or ground pork.  Drain.  Drain raisins.  Combine raisins, meat, apple, and nuts, mixing thoroughly.  Spread in a 9"x13" pan.  Sprinkle with cinnamon, spread little dollops around dish, and sprinkle with almond meal.  Cover with foil.  Bake for ~25 minutes, uncover, and bake for another 5 minutes.

Can be eaten as is, or if you're including dairy in your nutrition, a good dollop of yogurt or a splash of Homestead Creamery whole milk would make it pretty yummy.  This is a recipe that you can really play with.  Experiment with different dried fruits, meats, and even fruit.  I'd stick with mostly apple, but throwing in a bit of a firm pear might be interesting.
