zesty breakfast

Breakfast for this chilly Monday was vanilla greek yogurt, several dried cranberries, orange slices, orange zest, chopped walnuts (not too many) and ground flaxseed! So yummy and actually very filling. Now if I could get the boys to eat that, I'd be making major progress.
Health Benefits of Cranberries

Benefits Come in a Variety of Forms



Cranberries contain bacteria-blocking compounds that are believed to be helpful in preventing urinary tract infections, and scientists now think this same function may be useful in blocking the bacteria responsible for ulcers and certain oral bacteria that can lead to gum disease. Current research indicates that approximately 10 ounces of cranberry juice cocktail is needed daily to achieve the bacteria-blocking benefits that ward off UTIs, ulcers and gum disease. You can get these benefits in an array of cranberry products. For round-the-clock protection, snack or cook with one of these products at least once a day.
