I am loving the big selection of Organic products at Costco! This avocado oil is now a permanent staple in my house. It is healthier then olive oil to cook with because it has a higher heat tolerance. The pretzels were so good dipped in hummus. I am usually very picky with my hummus, but this stuff is the best!
I have been really digging my mini crockpot that my mom got me. In the morning I load it up with quinoa or rice, lots of veggies, spices, miso, then add water to it and plug it in at my desk and its ready in about 15-20 minutes.
I bought a bottle of this toner from Vitacost.com and am in love!
I purchased a 3 lb bag of hemp seeds from Amazon to feed my hemp milk addiction. It is so super easy and cheap to make!
Hemp Milk (yields about 4 cups)
1 cup shelled hemp seeds
3 cups filtered water
3-4 tbsp agave nectar or raw honey (you can also use dates or coconut sugar to sweeten)
1 tsp vanilla
Blend and store in fridge.
I’ve been in the market for a healthy self tanner. I came across this on Amazon and I really like it. My old favorite was the brand St. Tropez, but so toxic! (back in the day when I didn’t know what I was putting on my skin.) This is something I feel good about putting on my face from time to time in the dead of winter. Is anyone else dreaming of the summer sun?
I am loving my new Citrus Juicer. I’ve been finding that Trader Joe’s has the best deals for bags of organic oranges. I’ll buy 3 bags at a time to last me through the week. The green stuff you see is Chlorophyll. My favorite way to mix it is in fresh squeezed OJ!
Last but not least – TONICS!
Hot tonics are such a perfect vehicle to get in superfoods, herbs and nourishing goodness into your body. They are soothing, warming and delicious! I loaded up on herbs from Jing Herbs and have been adding them to my morning tonics each day. My favorite combo at the moment:
Dandy Blend (tbls), Cistanche (tsp), Activate the Qi (tsp), Coconut Oil (tbls), Coconut Sugar (tbls), few drops of hazlenut stevia, and CafeCeps (tsp).
I add hot water and touch of almond or hemp milk.
