Chia Fresca: Chia and Apple Cider Vinegar Tonic
This is my new morning drink ritual. I love it! When I wake up in the morning I can feel that I’m dehydrated. I think it happens to all of us naturally when we sleep. Chia seeds are great for stamina and, when soaked in water like this, they become very hydrating. This is an…

Quick and Easy Savory Quinoa
Quinoa, like most grains, is a little bit boring by itself. Add some spices and a little coconut oil though and you can transform it into something that could be eaten all by itself. Well, I can at least.

You can cook it in a saucepan too, you just have to pay more attention to it.

This almond flour banana bread is moist and delicious. It’s not only wheat-free, gluten-free, grain-free, but dairy-free as well.

My body can tell that it’s wheat-free because I don’t get the usual symptoms that come from eating wheat.
