A lot of people ask how to have a healthy breakfast. That’s still quick and easy. And not expensive…. YES! it can be done. Introducing Michelle’s Magic Morning Muffins, a healthy, fast, inexpensive, nutritious, portable breakfast that never flops no matter how you mess with it. Here Goes…
Michelle’s Magic Morning Muffins
- Grease (or line with paper cups) a muffin tray (I use the big muffin tray but both sizes work; simply adjust baking time).
- In a bowl mix together 1 cup oats (or gluten-free oats or 1/2 oats and 1/2 bran flakes or even left-over neglected muesli) 1/2 cup milk (or almond milk or kefir or even yoghurt) and stand for 5 minutes (or more, no stress). In a large bowl combine 1 cup flour (or spelt flour or gluten-free flour or wholewheat flour), 3 tsp baking powder, 1/4 tsp salt and 1/4tsp cinnamon, make a well and set aside.
- Stir 3/4 cup maple syrup (or honey, xylitol, sugar or applesauce – I find 3/4 too sweet and only add 1/2 a cup), 1/4 cup butter (or almond, cashew or any peanut butter) and 2 lightly beaten eggs (I have never used an egg substitute, but don’t be scared to try) into the oat mixture.
- Add egg mixture all at once to flour mixture and stir until moistened. Mixture should be lumpy.
- At this point I have added : 1/2 cup nuts, frozen berries, raisins, chocolate-covered cranberries, chopped banana, stewed apple and combinations of the above
- Spoon batter into cups, filling them about 3/4 full. Sprinkle with nuts (optional).
- Bake at 200C for 15-18 mins for small muffins and about 35-40 mins for big muffins. Cool on a rack
What Our Customers Are Saying
At the end of February this year, I ended up contracting Hepatitis A. For those of you who do not know, this is an extremely aggressive viral infection which attacks the digestive system and in particular the liver. There is no cure and antibiotics do not work. It clears itself out of the system within about 2 months to a year and then luckily, I will be naturally immune. Because of the malfunctioning of and damage to the liver, I have to be extremely careful of what I eat and drink. I also become tired extremely quickly. Also, due to this, one becomes jaundiced and because of the extreme fatigue irritable. Now, this is where the compliment comes in. If it were not for Michelle Kaminer at The Good Health Shop, I would not have made it through the last month. Her patience and advice have been invaluable. From diet, what to eat, drink, and what to avoid all the way through to how to destress and stay calm. She is an expert in this field and has literally saved my life. Slowly, I am healing from within and looking forward not only to a full recovery but also a much enhanced healthy lifestyle post recovery. She has taught me one very valuable lesson, and that is “The body is a self-healing organism. It is up to us to clear things out of the way so that the body can heal itself. ” If anyone is looking for a wholistic approach to health as opposed to the normal cut, burn and poison approach, she is the lady to see. Those of you looking for fast fixes to weight loss (pills and shakes) or instant but temporary fixes for health issues such as high blood pressure, diabetes, stress, etc. She is not your go-to girl. She does things the right way. The way we, as humans, need to heal through nature. That is her expertise. Some may fob this off as mumbo jumbo witchcraft. To those, I say, next time you are prescribed a myriad of pills for your next ailment go take an hour or two to read the contraindications, side effects and ingredients of what you have been given to take. Never forget, you are free to choose but whatever you choose you will live with the consequences of your choice. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU, Michelle.

Risk vs Reward
When you take a drug with known side-effects, do you make an effort to find out the potential side-effects? Is it difficult to decide if the reward is worth the risk? FOR EXAMPLE: * If your meds take your blood pressure down but leave you with a nagging cough, is it...
To test or not to test?
So off you go to give blood or off to the doctor for a bladder infection, or bronchitis or a pain that won’t resolve and while you’re there the nurse takes your blood pressure. Perhaps they test your sugar while you’re there. They might even suggest a slew of other...
Old age is a privilege…
Old age is a privilege denied to many. Growing old is NOT a medicatable (SP) disease. It’s unheard of for people today to approach their 60’s and not be on drugs of some sort – blood pressure meds, cholesterol, thyroid, hormones, bone density pills, and the list goes...

Running your own business is not easy; besides anything, people who work for themselves have the toughest bosses! This week I’ve stumbled into a business conundrum that’s reflected in daily life – when you’ve been doing something one way for a long time, and realise...
Take the time to do what’s important…
Well, it’s half way through Tuesday and I forgot all about my blog, and it’s not the 1st time… people in general are so busy; we have a finger in a dozen pies, and we have to think for everyone in the house or office. How much of the day are we reminding other people...
Why are we so cruel to ourselves?
Today my blog is about cruelty. Especially about how cruel we are to ourselves… and this is something we see in the shop over and over, but I’ll use today’s customer as an example. ….a woman in her 60’s, she suffers from fibromyalgia, which means she is in constant...
Was your baby natural born or a Caesar baby?
The most important thing to ever happen to your microbiome, the bacterial environment of the gut, happens when you’re being born. Is your baby restless and colicky? Is your toddler irritable and not sleeping well? Is your small child already exhibiting symptoms...
We are disconnected from the facts that how we live can be harmful to our health.
[Spoiler Alert: tough stuff to hear included] Health Coaching is emerging in response to the rise in chronic illness and the inability of western medicine to address issues in any way significant way, if this term is new for you and you would like to learn more about...
