Get a protein-packed breakfast in minutes with this Spicy Black Bean Breakfast Burger. Perfect for when you want something quick, healthy and delicious!
Lately, I have been feeling more tired than usual and end up hungry in the late mornings.

My usual breakfast consists of oatmeal with cocoa powder, flax seed meal and a banana.

It’s quick to make, and I really like a hot breakfast. Thankfully this Spicy Black Bean Breakfast Burger has become the protein-packed solution to my breakfast woes.

This Lemon Poppy Seed Bundt Cake is made with fresh lemon zest and juice, buttermilk, poppy seeds and whole wheat flour. It is a delicious coffee cake that is great for a special breakfast, snack or light dessert. This cake is so lemony, bright and cheery, it reminds me of spring. Now that we have warmer temperatures and snow melting, spring is finally on its way! One of my favorite things about spring is finally getting outside and being active as a family. We love to run, go on bike rides or just kick around the soccer ball. When kicking our healthy habits into high gear, I also find that we start paying more attention to what we eat. I recently used this Nutrition Calculator to find out my daily caloric needs, as well as fiber, protein and other important nutrients.
