“A key to healthy eating is having nourishing recipes that are easy and satisfying—these 3 are perfect to keep in rotation”


 

Three delicious recipes you can make in less than 10 minutes


Hello Beautiful,

Today I want to share 3 new recipes for Spring! They are nourishing, beautiful, delicious, and quick to make. I hope you enjoy them as much as I and my family have.

Sweet and Spicy Avocado Toast
This is beautiful and satisfying. It’s great for breakfast with berries or eggs and works for lunch with a soup or side salad. Our household is addicted! It is a good source of healthy fats and trace minerals and is a colorful feast for the eyes as well as a complex and balanced mixed of flavors.

  • Toast your favorite bread (my current favorite is by Out of the Bread Box/Teff bread)

Top the toast in this order:

  • a generous swish of Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • fresh avocado sliced or mashed
  • a pinch of sea salt
  • a sprinkle of cayenne
  • a drizzle of local honey
  • chopped sprouts

Almond Butter Balls
These can substitute for snack bars (or a cookie dough craving). Delicious and filling, they are great for growing kids and post workout hunger. They are a good source of protein, fiber, and healthy Omega fats.

  • Blend 1 cups of organic rolled oats in a blender until ground into a course flour.

In a medium size bowl completely combine:

  • 1/2 cup smooth organic almond butter
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 3 T. vanilla protein powder
  • 3 T. Hemp seeds

Add the oat flour to the wet mixture and stir.

  • Option: add 1/3 cup chocolate chips or raisins

Use a spoon to pick up 1 generous Tablespoon of the mixture and roll it between your palms to form a ball. Place on a plate or tray. If these last more than an hour (highly unlikely), you can store them in a sealed container in the fridge.

Alkalizing Lemonade
This incredibly refreshing drink is a great way to start your day. It’s also fantastic after a nice sweat or to feel thoroughly refreshed. As a good source of minerals and vitamin C it can help balance your system’s pH towards an optimal alkaline state.

Mix in a blender and then transfer to a carafe for the the fridge:

  • 8 cups of purified water
  • juice of 2 organic lemons
  • 1 packet of Orange Salt flavored electrolytes from LMNT (or your favorite electrolyte blend)
  • 2 T. WelleCo Super Elixir green powder (or your favorite green supplement)

I hope you try these recipes and enjoy them as much as my family does. Wising you a healthy and energized start in the new season.

Cheering you on,
Rachel
