I LOVE making fresh almond milk!!!! It’s easy to make and tastes so good! But what can you do with all that left over almond meal? I make almond flour out of it.

Line a baking sheet or pan with parchment paper. Place almond meal onto parchment paper and…
I promise this taste better than the look my cat is giving it. LOL. I am not a fan of the taste of Turmeric, but I’ve found drinking it as a “Golden” milk, makes it very enjoyable. Even my husband will drink it this way! For a creamier taste, I recommend making your own plant milk (Click Here for recipe). Ingredients: 1 Cup Almond Milk (I use Homemade Almond Milk) ¼ inch raw turmeric 1 Tbsp raw honey (Can…
There are many reasons to give up milk products. They range from adverse health effects, to the ethical and moral treatment of animals. If you go to the Gastroenterologist for stomach related issues, most likely you’ll be told to give up milk products. The same holds true for Pulmonologist (milk increases mucus production), Dermatologist (milk can cause acne & eczema), and Cardiologist (milk is bad for cholesterol). I mostly work in gastrointestinal health and one of the first things…
This dairy free frosting is super easy to make and taste great! I’ve tried dozens of different dairy free frosting recipes out there, but wasn’t really excited until I came across this one. I used powdered monkfruit sweetener, which tastes like sugar but has zero carbs or calories in it. It is zero glycemic, which means it will not raise your sugar levels. I found this at Whole Foods, but you can purchase online as well. Ingredients: 1 cup powdered…
This is my favorite paleo cereal recipe! It’s loaded in raw nutrition and fiber, which makes it great for the digestive system. You can be creative and add your own spin on this. In the beginning I felt the need to add in maple syrup for a touch a sweetness, but now I don’t feel that need at all. I find that adding in fruit or raisins is all the sweetness I need. But if you feel that this recipe…

If you’re a fan of blueberries, then you’re going to love this “nice cream.” It’s so creamy and delicious! My recipe was inspired from Wife Mama Foodie’s website. You can click here for the original recipe. In her recipe she used an ice-cream machine. I do not have one, so I just used my blender. My version turned out great, so I’m sure the ice-cream machine version is just incredible. Ice-cream Ingredients: 1 Cup pre-soaked cashews (soak x 4…
This recipe was inspired from One Green Planet. I don’t have an ice-cream maker and I also wanted to make a version that I could do with my Paleo diet. So I switched up a couple things, and it still turned out delicious! It tastes more like a pumpkin pie ice-cream, even though there is absolutely no pumpkin in it. This is a guilt free treat to enjoy! Check it out and let me know what you think. Ingredients: 1…
