Daily Supportive + Eco-Conscious

Posted by Karina Hines on Apr 23, 2022 12:06:26 PM

Get the most “nutritional bang for your bite” and use food as medicine first!

Learn how to be smart, savvy and more eco-conscious by making nut milk and seed blends at home that cost less, are healthier, plastic-free and help you add immune, digestive and hormone support to your daily diet.

We celebrated earth day this week, in truth, every day is earth day, and we can all be more eco-conscious with our choices of buying things with single-use plastics and packaging.  Plant-based milk + nut & seed flours are a great example; you can make them at home for less money, less packaging, with no food additives and store them in a glass jar in your fridge.   

This week's menu highlights how to make cashew milk, health-supportive seed blends, grain-free breakfast and cookies,
all using your blender, nuts and seeds! Get the most "nutritional bang for your bite" using these savvy botanical recipes!

I hope you have fun in the kitchen. Wishing you vibrant health 🥬 Chef Karina Hines.
