Last Sunday I began the day with a super powered green smoothie. Because we all need a little balance in our lives, I decided this Sunday I would kick off the new week with my favolicious gluten-free banana teff pancakes.

If you haven’t heard, pistachio nuts have been recalled due to salmonella contamination- just like what happened with spinach and almonds a few years ago.
