A few years ago I went to the hospital with severe abdominal pain long story short I was diagnosed with GERD. Besides the normal steps to help with GERD like avoiding triggering foods. I found that starting the morning by making sure my stomach is balanced and has healthy gut bacteria. Most people do not consume the correct vegetable and fruit portions throughout the day. If you do props but I am definitely not one of those people. So, I drink my recommended portions and start the day off right. You should and can make adjustments to the recipe below so it fits your preferences, but I think this recipe has great foundational ingredients that you can add to or adjust as you see fit.

Any super green powder will work. I like Nested because they have simple ingredients and no sugar.

I opt for almond milk and vanilla flavoring it think it pairs well with the chocolate super greens.

Lastly the peanut butter!

The finished product. It is just a great breakfast alternative that really get’s your gut in balance and gives you all your vitamins to help you conquer the day!

Blueberry Cake Donuts

Hello all! I am excited to share a new recipe with you but first a little background. I love cake donuts and especially blueberry cake donuts. I decided to give it a shot at making them at home. Sadly, I had to order a donut tray and wait for that to come in but since it has arrived here is how I made homemade blueberry donuts.

First step is to collect your ingredients.

The last things I combined is melted butter and the blueberries.

I folded in the blueberries so they wouldn’t bust.

I left them on a rack to cool while I made the glaze.

I chose to use a lighter glaze but you can add more powdered sugar to thicken it up.

The finished product!
