Your classic non-dairy, homemade, chai tea latte with an extra punch of turmeric. Or a turmeric latte meets a chai latte. However you see it, let's get some more turmeric in our bodies, shall we? This simple drink is a tasty, warming, therapeutic treat, especially in the winter. It's grounding, nourishing, and has all the spices to help soothe inflammation.
Such a simple snack and way to mix up the flavor in place of plain nuts. I'll grab a handful of these for a quick snack around the house, add them to salads, crumble them over roasted Brussels sprouts, or have them in my backpack when I'm out and about, or on the trail.
This recipe is an adaption from one of my beloved nutrition and therapeutic cooking instructors at Bastyr University, Jennifer Adler. It's tweaked for a fall flare and was created for a lifestyle design conference workshop for lady entrepreneurs (RebelleCon) who want to make nutrition delicious and sustainable in their busy lives.
An indulgent, easy-to-make, super food, homemade cocoa bark you'll want in your recipe collection. I make variations of this recipe depending on what I'm craving or inspired by at that time, like this recipe which has an autumn flare.
I recommend doubling or tripling this recipe to have a light but filling summer breakfast ready to go. They keep up to 3 days.
This one goes out to all of my clients who tell me they don't cook, but they will assemble! I crafted this dish earlier this summer, just trying to use up what was in my fridge. The lentils were meant for a brownie recipe 'experiment'. Which fear not, I did realize after cooking the lentils and tasting a bit of their rooted earthy flavor, it probably wasn't going to work in a gluten free brownie dish! They landed here instead and I'm so glad for it.
I'm a huge fan of whole foods, balanced meals that take less than 5 minutes to make! Some days you just need functional over fancy. Served up over a bed of fresh greens and with fresh fruit on the side makes this a lovely summer lunch.
Ridiculously rich in antioxidants, vibrant, tangy, and gingery, this smoothie has all the good stuff. It'll hit the spot just right on a hot, summer mid-morning or afternoon when you want to cool off and stay light. Add a splash more of orange juice or your favorite kombucha to thin it out if it's too thick.
Once you see how incredibly easy it is to make your own homemade nut milk, you may never go back to the store-bought boxed milks again! The pre-packaged milks on the shelves are mostly water and have unnecessary, added ingredients like carrageenan, sugar, natural flavors, and others to make them last longer on the shelf. All you really need is nut butter and water. That's it. The nutrient density is higher and the flavor is richer. So as long as you have almond, cashew, or other nut butters on hand, you always have a simple, homemade nut milk 5 minutes away.
Once you see how incredibly easy it is to make your own homemade coconut milk, you may never go back to the store-bought boxed milks again! The fresh, bright milk that comes out of this is impressive to me every time. The pre-packaged milks on the shelves are mostly water and have unnecessary, added ingredients like carrageenan, sugar, natural flavors, and others to make them last longer on the shelf. All you really need is shredded coconut (usually found in the bulk bin section) and water. That's it. The nutrient density is higher and the flavor is richer. So as long as you keep coconut on hand in your pantry, you always have a simple, homemade coconut milk 5 minutes away.
