Bloat be gone smoothie reminds me of lemon/lime sherbet ice cream with the tweaks I use. Cool, refreshing, and this one is jam packed of nutrients. You can watch the full video on how I make it here.
It has ginger in it, which I already have a stash of frozen ginger juice in the freezer. Giving myself past self a high five for. Here is the video on how to make ginger juice in massive bulk to have it on hand already frozen.
This recipe is in the THT page 488-489
Here are my tweaks to the recipe:
- I add everything to the blender, and blend it all in one.
- I add 4 frozen ginger juice ice cubes so I don't have to strain it, I keep these in my freezer at all times
- dump in water and almond milk
- I don't peel the apple or cucumber, but I do slice them, my blender is a boss so big chunks will do
- Add all the rest of the ingredients and do a full serving of Integral Collagen
- skip the gelatin, the protein is from the collagen
I make a biggie size smoothie and will often double the recipe. My daughter always wants some and I put some in ice cube trays. Make the smoothie one time and have two smoothies, hello genius momma! One for now and one for later. I will re-blend the frozen cubes for a fresh smoothie the next day. This is all about giving yourself a high five!

I am by heart a drive thru sue. I just love healthy food to be quick and easy #momlife. The more I go on the journey, the more I have capacity for choosing more nourishing options. #wannabepurest That's the beauty of the journey. We can evolve and grow over our entire lifetime. I get to be a TRIM HEALTH MAMA TODAY, in process towards my queen weight.
If I can make meals, drinks, and snack be easy peasy I'm all in! So the singing canary was a delight to have in concentrate form! Get out all the ingredients one time and it last me for a week.
INGREDIENTS:
2.5 cups of lemon juice
2 tablespoons of tumeric
2 tablespoons MCT
2 tablespoons of collagen
1 tsp salt
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/4 tsp stevia
1/4 cup baobab powder
3.5 tsp asorbic acid powder ( vitamin C)
INSTRUCTIONS:
Dump all the ingredients in a Vitmix and blend together. Store in a mason jar with a lid. When making the drink I grab a quart mason jar, fill with ice, dump in 1/2 cup of the concentrate and top the rest of the jar with water. Sometimes, when I'm savoring the concentrate I will only use 1/4 cup of concentrate to stretch out the recipe. Each time I use the concentrate, I shake the jar!

My kids say this is the best WAFFLE RECIPE EVER!!!
It's my mission to find recipes my family loves and is nourishing to their body. Can I get an AMEN? So here is the best waffle recipe ever, in their opinion. It's super simple to make and freezes great!
Ingredients:
- 3 cups of sprouted flour (I buy mine from Lindley Mills or you can get some from Amazon)
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 cup gentle sweet
- 1/2 cup of egg whites
- 3 cups of almond milk
- 2 TBSP of butter
- 2 tsp vanilla extract
Instructions:
- In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and gentle sweet and stir, add in the egg, milk, melted butter, and vanilla.
- Allow the batter to rest while you preheat your waffle iron.
- Lightly spray your waffle iron, and add 2/3 cup of mixture.
- Cook for 3 minutes.
This made 8 waffles for my belgian waffle maker which is less than 1 tsp of butter per waffle. I enjoy this recipe with slim belly jelly from the THM cookbook on page 478. I will enjoy a chocolate milk to the meal to round out the protien. Just unsweetened almond milk, and on plan whey chocolate protien powder. My kids love this with maple syrup and added butter on top for a cross over.

Have you ever made sprouted waffles before? I am excited to hear how your kiddos enjoy the recipe.
We love to travel! I want my children to see the world. So I have mastered making meals in the hotel room. This saves so much money and allows me to say yes to all the "Mom can we...." request of my children.
Look at what one of the "Mom can we go to the arcade" did for our sweet daughter tonight. #momwin
I love making this chicken, beans and rice bowl. Everything is shelf stable, Praise the Lord, for not having to keep it cold while on the go. I bring my Instant pot on the journey with us when we are driving to the destination. If we are flying this will go in the checked luggage and I'll use a pot at the air bnb or hotel kichenette. You can always order the ingredients with grocery pick up now a days too.
Chicken, beans and rice bowl THM E
Ingredients:
2 Cups of Brown Rice
2 cups of water
2 cans of chicken breast
1 can of black beans- drained and rinsed
1 can of diced tomatoes- drained
1 can of rotel
Instructions:
1. Cook rice in instant pot ( 2 cups of rice and water) bring to pressure for 22 minutes, slow release for 10 minutes.
2. Add the rest of the ingrediants, bring to pressure for 3-5 minutes to heat everything up
3. Enjoy over lettuce, in a bowl or use baked tostitos chips to dip.
This is a THM E meal. Be mindful that 45 net carbs is the highest amount of carbs to enjoy on an E meal while staying in weight loss mode. I don't bring or add any seasoning as this is a drive thru sue special and saved us from the pizza Great Wolf Lodge had floating around. This serves 6- 8 people. Feel free to add more beans and tomatoes as fillers.
Bonus Tips:
When I'm really in a pinch, I use the microwave bags for brown rice or even cauliflower rice. At home I will make this with half frozen cauliflower rice and 1/2 brown rice to make it lighter on the carbs. When we came to our room from the water park for lunch I made the rice, so when it came time to make dinner it was dump, heat and serve within 10 minutes.
Would it bless you to have a community of women on this healthy and whole journey with you? You are invited to join us for more healthy recipes THM style and faith based mindset and heart work training here.
