Grilled Veggies + Pineapple & Sliced Watermelon
- eggplant

- carrot
- bell pepper
- pineapple
- peaches
- 1-2 tablespoons Cacao Bee Manuka Honey
- watermelon
Do This:
Grill veggies and pineapple until grill marks are visible, and then remove from heat and serve. For the peaches, dry grill them on a grill pan over medium high heat until the grill marks are visible and then drizzle on the manuka honey. Cut the watermelon into bite-sized cubes (great for small kiddies!) or go with the traditional summer triangles!
Cheesy Kale Chips
Gather This:
- 1 large bunch of kale
- 1 cup cashews (soaked 2 hours)
- 1 red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
- 3-4 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon Green Bee Manuka Honey
- 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Green Dream Superfood + Protein Blend
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric powder

Do This:
Rinse the kale and spin dry. Remove the stems and tear into bite size pieces. Let the kale air out as much as possible before coating. Blend the ingredients for the cheesy seasoning in the blender until smooth. Transfer kale and seasoning to a large bowl and mix well, using your hands to ensure the leaves are well coated. Spread kale leaves out on a cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes, or until leaves are crisp when shaken in pan.
