About Contributor

After 11 incredibly physically demanding years in the trenches of NFL, Keith Sims was ready for a change of pace. Little did he know his wife, Tia, had been plotting for years for this very moment. Tia had long ago decided the best way for their family to travel with their three little boys was by RV. She had been dragging Keith to RV shows for years. Tia put forth such a powerful case for the family to try Rving that Keith had no choice but to agree. Now the whole family is hooked! The Sims family home base is in the Atlanta area, but they typically spend over 100 days/nights each year touring this country. Tia uses the travel to enhance the boy’s homeschool education. The whole family loves the space and flexibility that RV travels gives the family. The Sims family are very active with the RV influencer community. They are a spokes-family for GoRving , having starred in TV, online ads, and print ads in various magazines including Oprah’s “O.” They recently began working with Camping World as well as many other companies within the RV media industry. They focus on promoting family and minority RVing. You can follow their adventures at their blog Soulful RV Family.

Instructions for French Toast

Crack eggs in a large mixing bowl, add a cup of Oat milk and a tablespoon of cinnamon & sugar. Whisk the mixture completely.
Warm up the griddle to 350 degrees or medium-high heat. Add some oil to the griddle so the french toast will not stick to the pan.
Dip the bread into the egg mixture turning it over multiple times. Make sure both sides of the bread are completely covered in egg mixture. Place on the hot griddle.
Flip toast after 1-2 minutes. Check to make sure the french toast is not sticking to the griddle.
Repeat for the desired number of pieces of French toast. Remove hot French toast when it is golden brown and place on a plate.
Add a bit of butter and allow to melt. Sprinkle lightly a little powder sugar. Plate with a side of hot Maple syrup and two strips of bacon.

Instructions for Smoothie

In one NutriBullet combine several leaves of fresh kale with frozen strawberries, blueberries, pineapple, mango, and a spoonful of local honey.
Blend to combine and serve immediately.
