Maple Pecan Banana Muffins

Moist and delicious Maple Pecan Banana Muffins, so good you won’t believe they are light!

These banana nut muffins are slightly adapted from my low fat banana nut bread recipe. Here I wanted to use pecans, pure maple syrup and some maple sugar I purchased, but if you don’t have maple sugar any sugar would work. What I love about making these banana muffins is that they come out so moist, and I only use 2 tablespoons of butter in the whole batch! If you prefer, you can also make them in a loaf pan to make them into a wonderful banana nut bread.

Skinnytaste Meal Plan (October 1-October 7)

A free 7-day flexible meal plan including breakfast, lunch and dinner and a shopping list. All recipes include calories and Weight Watchers Freestyle™ SmartPoints®.

Happy October! My favorite month and also my birthday week!! And just a few days and Skinnytaste One and Done Cookbook will be arriving to everyone’s door if you pre-ordered! And for those asking, all the WW points for all three books are listed in the cookbook index.

If you’re new to my meal plans, I’ve been sharing these free, 7-day flexible healthy meal plans (you can see my previous meal plans here) that are meant as a guide, with plenty of wiggle room for you to add more food, coffee, beverages, fruits, snacks, dessert, wine, etc or swap recipes out for meals you prefer, you can search for recipes by course in the index. You should aim for around 1500 calories* per day.

There’s also a precise, organized grocery list that will make grocery shopping so much easier and much less stressful. Save you money and time. You’ll dine out less often, waste less food and you’ll have everything you need on hand to help keep you on track.

Lastly, if you’re on Facebook join my Skinnytaste Facebook Community where everyone’s sharing photos of recipes they are making, you can join here. I’m loving all the ideas everyone’s sharing!

THE DETAILS:

Breakfast and lunch Monday-Friday, are designed to serve 1 while dinners and all meals on Saturday and Sunday are designed to serve a family of 4. Some recipes make enough leftovers for two nights or lunch the next day. While we truly believe there is no one size fits all meal plan, we did our best to come up with something that appeals to a wide range of individuals. Everything is Weight Watchers friendly, I included the updated Weight Watcher Freestyle Points for your convenience, feel free to swap out any recipes you wish or just use this for inspiration!

The grocery list is comprehensive and includes everything you need to make all meals on the plan. I’ve even included brand recommendations of products I love and use often. Cross check your cabinets because many condiments you’ll notice I use often, so you may already have a lot of them.

And last, but certainly not least, this meal plan is flexible and realistic. There’s plenty of wiggle room for cocktails, healthy snacks, dessert and dinner out. And if necessary, you can move some things around to make it work with your schedule. Please let me know if you’re using these plans, this will help me decide if I should continue sharing them!

Crock Pot Applesauce

Homemade apple sauce doesn’t get easier than using your slow cooker!!

Crock Pot Applesauce

Nothing beats homemade apple sauce, making it in the crock pot is easy and your house will smell divine while the apples and cinnamon simmer all day long. The hardest part about making this sauce is peeling the apples (which is not hard at all!). I love using it in my homemade Applesauce Nut Bread, or with Pork Chops and Apple Sauce, so good!

Does This Wearable Really Deliver Mindfulness?

These days we’ve got trackers that monitor, well, just about everything: steps, workouts, heart rate, sleep, your dog’s activity … (We are truly living in the future.) via GIPHY And now we can add another thing to that trackable list (and it’s pretty darn cool): mindfulness. Yep, by monitoring breathing patterns that indicate periods of tension, relaxation and mental focus, the Spire Stone ($129.95) claims to reduce stress and anxiety while increasing mindfulness as you go through your everyday life. Does it work though? We tried it for a month and here are our thoughts! via GIPHY Spire Review: Pros The…

Conversation Starters for You and Your Child

I remember wondering — during most of my postpartum period — what was going on in my baby’s head. I would turn to my partner as my baby cried and ask him, “What do you think our baby is thinking right now? Why do you think he is crying?” (Only, truth be told, I didn’t sound as nearly calm as you’re probably reading it.) My partner could only reply with, “I wish he could tell us himself.” Yes, that was exactly my wish for pretty much the entire time my baby didn’t speak. The funny thing is that, now that…

5 Ways to Be Prepared for a Tragedy at Your Gym

About a month ago, I was at the gym when tragedy struck. We had a fellow member (and friend) collapse on the bike. Myself and others at the gym immediately jumped to his aid — performing CPR, administering an AED, calling 911, and getting the area ready for the paramedics. Although we were able to keep him alive until help arrived, he later passed at the hospital. I don’t tell you this to scare you. But, make no mistake — it was really scary, and horrible, and I hope that you never have to go through it. I tell you…

Yoga to Alleviate Tech Neck

There was a period of time — not so long ago — when the most requested poses in my yoga classes were hip openers. But that is definitely changing. So many people are now are experiencing the effects of long hours spent in front of computers and mobile devices — all that tech is rapidly becoming a (literal) pain in the neck … and shoulders … and upper back. In a healthy human skeleton, the cervical spine — which includes all your neck bones — is the most mobile part of your spine. And it’s a good thing because this…

Food Fight: Nooma vs. BodyArmor LYTE

Coconut water continues to be a darling of health-focused athletes everywhere, and for good reason. It’s a super hydration source, and it tastes good to boot. So it’s no wonder we’ve received samples of a couple of different sports drinks that utilize coconut water — in addition to a few other ingredients. First up, we’ve got Nooma Organic Electrolyte Drink: And in the other corner, we have BodyArmor LYTE SuperDrink: Taste & Texture Nooma: Available in Blueberry Peach, Mango, Watermelon Lime, and Chocolate Mint, Noooma is a little sweeter than plain coconut water (which could be a pro or a…

Household Tasks That Improve Your Child’s Motor Skills

Motor skills are something that we can help our children exercise at home. I don’t have a written out motor skill curriculum for your children, but I would like to share with you some examples of how I exercise my children’s gross and fine motor skills — while getting the most out of their help. I’ve found that disguising lessons in things that my young children want to help me with — that they won’t want to do when they are teenagers, such as household chores — removes a layer of frustration for me, because my children want to help,…

5 Reasons Why You’re Not Reaching Your Fitness Goals

There are few things in the world more frustrating than working your butt off and not seeing results. I’ve certainly been there and spent a ton of time scrambling to figure out what I could do differently. We’d all like to believe that if you’re putting in solid, consistent effort in the gym and in the kitchen, it will continue to pay off and get you closer to your goals. But sadly, the reality is that it’s really not that simple. There are so many reasons why you might find yourself hitting a plateau. Here are some of the most…
