    January Favorites: Healthy Finds

    Hey healthy bunnies, I tried a few awesome items this month and want to share them with you. It’s always nice to find tasty foods which I’m not allergic to and can also enjoy guilt-free. I’m thinking of doing a series soon on living with food intolerances. What do you think?  Here’s the first item…. Quinoa patties: they’re pretty mild in flavor, so nothing to rave about there– but you can do a lot with sauces or avocado. What I love is that there is no wheat, no nuts, no soy, and no rice. There’s just quinoa, coconut out, arrowroot powder and a few other veggies.  Serenity turmeric juice: what…

The cleansing properties of the lemon, cayenne, and warm water are often enough to help me feel energized, and give myself a little reboot if I ate anything I shouldn’t have.

It’s always awesome when you choose function over flavor, but end up with good flavor anyway.  Imagine…

    Metabolism Boosting Green Smoothie

    Have you  noticed the green drink craze lately? I don’t know when it started, but I think people would juice everything in their fridge if they could! It’s not a bad craze, though since most people have a tough time getting their recommended amount of fruit and veggies each day. I personally do not have a juicer, just a blender. This works just great for me, and I can gain all the same benefits without missing the fiber. Long ago when I discovered dark leafy greens could be added to blended drinks with no detected flavor, I was amazed! This drink is all about boosting the metabolism and detoxing. Kale…
