Banana Oatmeal Donuts

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 08:00 PM PDT

I just love it when I find a recipe that is so delicious I can’t resist it, and yet is healthy enough that I don’t feel the least bit guilty indulging. This is just such a recipe! These tasty and healthy donuts are made from whole grains, fruit, and healthy fats, with no refined sugars. They’re also egg-free, wheat-free and dairy-free if you’re on a limited diet. And they don’t taste like any of that! They just taste like yummy. Want the recipe? Get it at the Grain Mill Wagon: Banana Oatmeal Donuts.

I’ve got one more delicious grain mill recipe coming up for you next week – you’re going to love it! Another healthified indulgence, my favorite.

Must Have Monday: Crane Adorables Humidifier

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 04:14 AM PDT

Fall is coming, whether I like it or not. I actually saw a tree with some leaves of bright red. You know what that means (besides an abundance of butternut squash). Cooler weather and drier conditions. In our house we heat with oil, which thus dries out our house. All of us in the Mom on the Run house have sensitivities to air pollutants, especially the girls. Daijia, my oldest, suffers from nose bleeds if the air becomes to dry from the electric heat. We have found that a good quality humidifier makes winter nights much more comfortable.

A few weeks ago I was contacted by Sylvane about a new line of humidifiers, geared toward children. I knew that it would be a must have for the Mom on the Run family.

Who is Sylvane? 

Sylvane

Sylvane sells indoor air quality products to help people (especially asthma and allergy sufferers) breathe clean and healthy air.Better air begins with knowledge. This idea is at the heart of everything we do — from choosing our products to assisting our customers. Sylvane are not simply experts in selling air treatment products. Sylvane are experts in air treatment. They are committed to providing you with the highest-quality products and the most reliable informational resources to help you create healthier indoor air, no matter what the season or air treatment issue. Whether your top concern is eliminating airborne allergens, controlling indoor humidity, boosting indoor comfort, or cleaning safely – Sylvane have a solution to fit your needs.

crane humidifier

Sylvane is now offering Crane humidifiers.  Crane has a series of baby/toddler humidifiers appropriately named Adorables. They are in the shape of little animals and the choices range from a green frog to an elephant that emits water vapor into the air from it’s trunk! Cool, right?

Since 2005 Crane has designed small home appliances with fun, innovative designs reflective of their belief that the home is a display of personal lifestyle and individual expression. Crane sought a creative way to provide the relief people desire in an exciting new format, with the understanding and knowledge that humidifiers provide congestion relief and people are increasingly seeking home environment improvements. By creating functional and efficient humidifiers combined with unique design elements, Crane updated the ordinary home appliance to an attractive product that reflects personal style and enhances the living space while providing dependable relief. Crane continues to expand, lending their name and "design for better living" to other small home appliances.

When the box arrived the girls were so excited to see our "new pet" live and in person. Our new pet is a…….

The girls being good big sisters let Baby A have the frog for her room. She was so excited!!

We set it up and tried it out. I was surprised how quiet the machine was. Great for a babies room. Here are some great other great features that I loved:

Provides Alternative Non-medicine Relief

Many pediatricians recommend the use of a humidifier as a safe, non-medicine alternative for relieving common cold and flu symptoms such as cough and congestion. An added benefit, this humidifier dispenses a cool mist that can help soothe dry skin, chapped lips, and even aids in preventing nosebleeds.

Built-in Automatic Shutoff Safety Sensor (HUGE BONUS FEATURE—LOVE IT)

This feature automatically turns the humidifier off when the tank is empty for safety.

Quiet Ultrasonic Operation

The use of ultrasonic technology creates the cooling mist quietly, with a noise level of less than 37 decibels at 3 feet away from the humidifier, meaning your child can get a restful, therapeutic night’s sleep.

Additional Features:

  • Energy-efficient – uses less power than a standard light bulb
  • Easy to use – just remove the water tank, unscrew the tank cap, and fill with water
  • Can provide up to 24 hours relief – on a medium setting, the 1 gallon tank is capable of delivering up to 24 hours of humidification, up to 2.1 gallons a day
  • Additional benefits – humidification also provides some relief for from problems caused by winter heating, like static electricity, cracks in paint and furniture, and peeling wallpaper
  • Cool humidification – unlike warm humidification, avoid the possibility of burns when a child touches the unit since the unit does not heat up
    If you are looking for a great humidifier this winter season, visit Sylvane. You can't go wrong with this product. It gets a big Mom on the Run seal of approval.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free from Sylvane. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

Gourmet Black Bean Tacos

Posted: 27 Aug 2012 08:03 PM PDT

My husband and I love Mexican food. A while back, we were at this restaurant where the tacos came out open-faced and with a bunch of gourmet toppings on top (cabbage slaw, cojita cheese, etc.). I decided to make my own version at home with a few traditional ingredients and one or two fun toppings to give it some extra flavor and a gourmet feel. I served them open faced and they looked beautiful!

These tacos are also especially healthy because I used soft corn tortillas (for extra fiber and none of the fat of crispy tacos), black beans (fiber + protein), tons of veggies – tomatoes, corn, red onions, avocado (antioxidants), and fresh shredded sharp cheddar (more protein).

The ingredient list was relatively simple: Soft corn tortillas, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese (I used about 2-3 Tbsp per taco), 1 15oz can black beans, 1 15oz can of diced & fire roasted tomatoes, 3-4 cloves garlic, 1/2-3/4 cup frozen corn (not pictured), 1 avocado mashed with some lime juice (basically guacamole), 1 red onion diced, chopped cilantro (to taste)

The Directions

Step 1: Warm corn tortillas in the oven or microwave and chop all your veggies/toppings

Step 2: Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Add 1-2 tsp olive oil and saute the onion, garlic, tomatoes, corn and black beans until heated through.

Step 3: Assemble your tacos! Start with your tortilla, add the bean mixture, top with mashed avocado/guac, cheese, diced onions and cilantro.

 My husband loved these and they were such a quick and easy meal to make – perfect for a weeknight dinner.
