Paleo pumpkin spice "latte"

Just in case you didn't want to spend the $6.50 for a medium pumpkin spice latte (or at least I don't, soy is extra $0.75! And yes, soy isn't paleo. But I'm on my + year of going nearly dairy free.)....

There is a new "fad" of blending coconut oil +|- butter/ghee in your coffee.  It's wonderfully creamy and was my "bridge" to giving up coffee with wonderful creamy  flavored creamer or even half and half.  Now, on the weekends or days off I add coconut oil and blend, work days I drink black. (Oh he horror!)

Moving forward with my recipe (if you would even call it that!)

Gather ingredients and supplies.

1 cup of hot coffee

1 tablespoon of coconut oil

Immersion blender 

Pumpkin spice 

Cute anthro mug

Pour one cup of coffee into something large enough to contain your coffee while blending with immersion blender.

Add coconut oil.

Blend on low....

Until all the oil has been emulsified.

Mmmmm.

Add pumpkin spice to the top.

Also, if you aren't doing #whole30 , maybe add a little "real" maple syrup. 

Crockpot spaghetti squash

Spaghetti squash has quickly become one of my favorite vegetables.  It's kind of a pain to cut it down the middle to bake... Until now!  The credit for this idea very much goes to my sister and wherever she saw it online... 

Regardless......

Steps.

Buy a spaghetti squash.

Wash said squash.

Poke squash a few times with a fork.

Put squash in the crock pot on low.

Walk away for many hours.

Come back and find squash cooked perfectly (time depends on how big).

Cut in half. 

Scoop out seeds. (Way easier than doing pre-cooking).

Eat squash or save for later.

Easy peasy!
