Recipe by Kate Tietje, and written by Rustina
Rushed mornings and busy families seem to challenge our commitment to eating healthy right from the start. Thankfully, Kate always has great ideas! These are simple to make and customizable for your own crew’s favorites.
In this one, she used gluten-free flour and a secret ingredient – Greens Powder! This powder is nutrient packed with good amounts of vitamin A, B-complex, C, E, K1, and even omega-3 fatty acids! Made with kelp, green tea, alfalfa leaf, spirulina, spinach, and lemon balm (one of my favorite calming adaptogens). Together these ingredients help support the liver, healthy blood sugar, cholesterol, thyroid, immune system, metabolism, brain health, and gut health! They are anti-inflammatory and antioxidant. Combined with other properties, this can help reduce the risk of cancer as well.
What better way to start your day than with great support like that?!
