Mama's Mambo juice
My mom only has two priorities when we vacation - fruit and a place to put her hammock. Her fav fruits are mangoes, papaya, and kiwis, so I decided to make her this blend of her fav fruits as a breaky.
Ingredients:
1 mango
1 sm papaya
2 kiwis (peeled)
Slice all and place in blender with mineral water or kombucha. Fruit is naturally acidic due to it's high ascorbic acid (vitamin C) levels and sugar content. You can create alkaline water by adding salts (pink), apple cider vinegar (1 tbsp for this recipe) or using a specific purifier, Kombucha is a natural basic drink. Fruit is also very cleansing and detoxifying which is one of many reasons why it should be eaten alone. Most dominantly it should be eaten alone because of it's high digestible fibers, water, and sugar content which allow it to be digested and assimilated into energy within 30 min. If you are to eat fruit on top of other more "rich" foods, including protein, complex carbs, and essential fats which all digest slower, you are creating an environment for fruit to ferment and create gas and loose nutritional value. Therefore it is best to eat fruit 30 min before a workout or a meal so that you can properly use the calories for energy and get the most value out of the nutrients.

Simply Sprouted Sweet and Salty
Triple S Almonds (sprouted, sweet, and salty)
Thanks Amelia for the inspiration and reminding me of my roots =)
1 cup almonds - let them soak in water for at least 8 hours, remove the skin (this will be easy after soaking they should just slip right out of the peel)
1 tbsp Vanilla Coconut oil (or coconut oil and some fresh vanilla beans)
1 pinch Himalayan pink salt
1 packet stevia (optional)
heat coconut oil over a double boiler and add spices then almonds until almonds are fully coated - dehydrate in the dehydrator over-night or eat warm.
Why eat sprouted?
Ok this one is a bio brief - seeds are essentially the egg of the plant world - they carry all of the essential nutrients to grow plant. This seed is dry vessel that when in contact with water is stimulated by a hormone chemical pathway that breaks down the essential fats into carbohydrates and proteins for plant growth. If you sprout a seed you are essentially starting that chemical pathway such that more nutrients are now available for you since you will be eating the seed before it germinates (grows). After sprouting more vitamins and protein are available from the seed.
you can either just soften the seed through soaking for a few hours or you can allow it to create a small plant (sprout) by allowing it to soak for multiple days. Both are nutritious but in different ways.
Sprout and enjoy!
