Summer Fun Recipes

Tasty, healthy eating is easy to accomplish this summer when you know what goes into the foods you are making. If you're looking for recipes that are both cool and delicious, you've come to the right place. Summer is full of eating out and having fun!

I've picked out a few of my favorite recipes to help you stay healthy and stay on track, no matter what time of day it is.

For breakfast start off with an Apple and Berry Loaf. This is a fun twist on traditional breakfast foods like toast or pancakes. It's perfect for breakfast on the go or when you need something quick before running out the door in the morning. It's also great for picnics because you can make it ahead of time and store it in an airtight container in the fridge until ready to eat.

Berries are some of the healthiest foods you can eat. They're low in calories and high in fiber, vitamin C, and antioxidants. Many berries have been associated with being beneficial for heart health. These include lowering blood pressure and cholesterol while reducing oxidative stress. Apples are an incredibly nutritious fruit that offers multiple health benefits. They're rich in fiber and antioxidants. Eating them is linked to a lower risk of many chronic conditions, including diabetes, heart disease, and cancer. Apples may also promote weight loss and improve gut and brain health.

Apple & Berry Breakfast Loaf

(ONE slice = Calories 296: Carbs 16.9, Fat 9 Protein 22.3)

2 cups almond flour

½ cup desiccated coconut

2 tbsp chia seeds

2 tbsp coconut flour

1 tsp cinnamon

2 tsp baking powder

4 eggs

¼ cup almond milk, or milk of choice

1 tsp vanilla extract

2 tbsp maple syrup

1 apple, grated

1 cup mixed berries

For Topping

1/2 Tsp cinnamon

1/2 Green apply thinly sliced

Directions:

1. Preheat the oven to 160°C or 320°F. Line a loaf tin with baking paper.

2. Place the almond meal, desiccated coconut, chia seeds, coconut flour, cinnamon, and baking powder into a large mixing bowl and stir until they're combined.

3. In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk of choice, vanilla, and maple or rice malt syrup.

4. Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and mix until just combined. Gently fold in the grated green apple.

5. Spoon half of the batter into the tin before adding half of the berries. Cover with the remaining batter. Arrange the extra apple pieces and remaining berries on the top of the loaf.

6. Bake for 45-60 minutes, or until the bread is golden on the top and cooked through. To test if it's cooked, insert a skewer. If it comes out dry, it's ready. Once cooked, remove it from the oven and allow it to cool in the tin.

7. When it has cooled, turn the tin upside down and remove the loaf. Once completely cooled, slice the loaf into 10 slices.

With the Cooling Summer Detox Juice, you're sure to stay hydrated and ready to take on the summer.

This drink is packed with antioxidants and vitamins that are great for your skin and help keep you hydrated during the hot summer months. It's also got a little bit of spice to give your taste buds a boost!

Cooling Summer Detox Juice

2 cups fresh watermelon

1 cup fresh or frozen strawberries or blackberries

1/2 fresh lime juiced

1/4 teaspoon ginger fresh preferred

1/2 cup ice more if using all fresh fruit

Directions:

You can run watermelon through a blender or juicer. Sometimes, I’ll throw in the whole green rind too if I juice the watermelon. I add ice to the blender. If juicing, I add ice after.

Now, it's time to enjoy fresh, delicious food that makes you feel great about what you're putting in your body.

Chickpea salad is a great dish because it's filling but also light enough that you can eat it as a lunch or dinner during warmer months when you don't want something heavy like soup or stew. This recipe has been around for decades but remains popular because it's easy to make and tastes fantastic!

The frenzy of preparing yourself for the blistering sun has already begun! Most folks tend to neglect their diet during the holidays, and it is usually a necessary decision owing to copious amounts of sweet treats and drinks. Now that spring has settled in and the days are longer and warmer, you need to take steps to adjust your eating habits before all those pounds start piling on.

While we love a good summer salad, sometimes you just need something more substantial—like our breakfast loaf recipe! It's made with all-natural ingredients like eggs and fruits, so it's not only tasty but also healthy. We recommend pairing your breakfast loaf with one of our cooling detox juices to help keep your body running at its best.

Our chickpea salad is another great option if you're looking for something light but filling. This recipe calls for a few ingredients such as chickpeas, garlic, and lemon juice—and it takes less than ten minutes to make! It goes well with any meal or even as a snack on its own.

Here are a few recipes to try. Test them out and see what you think! Let us know if you have any recipe suggestions of your own, or if you use and enjoy any of the ones listed above.
