Creating a healthy and purpose-driven life.
Hello again!
Since the second week of December, my family and I have been on a Candida cleanse, and it hasn’t exactly been a walk in the park. As unglamorous as it sounds, it’s not on my list of fun to not eat fruit or anything that can be converted into sugar. Every Candida diet is different, but the one we follow allows for us to still have our smoothies and protein powder (thank goodness!). I don’t know if I could’ve survived doing it for this long without at least my daily smoothies!
One of the newer obsessions of Instagram is the ever popular matcha latte. Matcha is a type of green tea, available in powder form. With summer weather having arrived in the DMV area, it makes for a simple yet refreshing treat.
Banana pancakes have been making the rounds for a while now for several reasons:
1) They’re almost all allergen free (except for eggs)
2) They’re extremely simple to make and require few ingredients,
and 3) They taste delicious (and are super healthy).
I’ve made a gazillion different versions of these, but since I’ve stumbled across the concept of adding dried flowers to baking I’ve become obsessed with these lemon lavender pancakes. And of course what else works well with lavender? Blueberries! So I topped it off with a warm blueberry sauce.
