    How To Use Collagen To Plump Your Skin And Heal Your Gut!

    By InHealthy Gut 0

    Collagen, where have you been all my life?!!

    As an esthetician, I am always looking for ways to help my skin.  The crazy part is that I found the most unique way of helping your skin, while trying to heal my gut.

    I’ve had a lot of stomach issues and skin issues throughout my life. I think not knowing I had a gluten allergy for most my life has really had a compounding affect on my body. So, as I have been working to heal myself, I am in a constant state of learning.

    I have consistently been making bone broth and then having collagen. The exact brand is Great Lakes Collagen.  Who knew it would not only help my gut, but really help my skin! It has been awesome! I make my own bone broth, but I also buy bone broth at the grocery store as a supplement.

    Avocado Brownie Recipe! – Fudgtastic and Delicious!

    By In21 Day Fix 0

    Avocado Brownie Recipe

    I can successfully say my desserts are all mapped out for the week ? Food prep is vital, right? I have a Paleo strawberry rhubarb crisp I’m making tomorrow and NO I’m not pregnant. Just love playing with desserts that have no harsh sugars in them like this brownie recipe.  But for realzies, this brownie dessert is the bomb and way easier on our “gut” than a box. Knowing the exact ingredients in our food is SUPER important!

    Check it:

    ~1 medium ripe avocado
    ~1/4 cup melted coconut oil
    ~1 large egg
    ~1/2 cup maple syrup
    ~1tsp. vanilla
    Blend it all up and then add in the dry ingredients:
    ~3/4 cup cocoa powder | unsweetened
    ~1/4 Pamela’s GF Baking mix or GF flour
    ~1/2 sea salt
    ~1/3 cup dark choc chips

    Preheat oven to 350. Line an 8×8 baking dish with foil. Spray foil with cooking spray. Pour into pan and bake for 33-36 minutes until done. I let the kids decorate their brownie section with tiny marshmallows and it came out yummy.  Not only did they like it…but they loved it!  So did my hubby.  This was his one dessert for the week and he demolished it!  I didn’t know if it would be very good, but it was a hit and we will be making it again.  Remember, as in all things moderation is the key.  I didn’t have 3 servings, I had one.  So make sure you protect yourself and only eat smaller portions.  This could work for the 21 Day Fix meal plan, but you can only have a small amount because there is a lot of fat.

    I stole this from the amazing Team Beachbody blog. I also apologize for posting it at 9:30 at night. It’s now time to drink water and go to bed. Please do not get up and make these? but you’ll love them when you do get a chance!!! Did you notice my “corner” piece? Who else loves the corners?

    Acai Bowl! Super Healthy Alternative for Ice Cream!

    By InBetter Yourself 0

    ? •Acai Bowl•?

    This in an incredible way to treat yourself! Call it a smoothie in a bowl or a healthy version of ice cream (nice cream) hehe?

    You can literally blend anything you want with it. I used frozen blueberries and cherries. Toppings range from homemade granola, shredded coconut, chia seeds (for healthy fats and protein), sliced bananas-gosh anything that sounds good.

    This is my first attempt so I might blend with more ice to make it thicker next time. I bought the Sambazon packets(which are the acai berries) from Costco to store in the freezer! Apparently, you can buy these bowls pre made all over Cali which is just another reason why I should live there☀? Any good suggestions for one?‪#‎acaibowl‬
