As the weather gets warmer, we often start to crave lighter fare. Salads are a wonderful way to pack lots of fresh vegetables, fruits, and greens into one refreshing meal, but what you put on your salad is just as important as what you put in it. This deliciously light and creamy dressing includes vitamin-rich avocado, lots of fresh herbs, and Philosophie Green Dream Superfood Blend for an extra dose of nutrients and protein. It is excellent drizzled over a bed of fresh greens, but is also great as a dip for veggies or as a dressing for your favorite sandwich!

Berry Cherry

This is a fun, easy, summertime recipe that I look forward to making once the weather gets warm. The pineapple is great for digestion because of the natural enzymes, the Berry Bliss superfood blend is high in plant-based protein + the mint lightens the smoothie up making it uber refreshing! If you want it a little sweeter, a ripe banana would be delicious in this. Enjoy! 

yields ~16oz

-8 oz water

-1 T Berry Bliss

-1 T Chia Seeds

-1 C frozen black cherries

1 T Coconut oil or butter

-1/2 C pineapple (frozen or fresh)

-8-10 sprigs fresh mint (or more if you love it!)

Since I am obsessed with Sophie's products, I thought it'd be great to give you one of my favorite superfood smoothie recipes. I love to put either berry bliss or (and!) green dream in this one.

This Cacao Magic Superfood bark is gluten-free, vegan + has zero sugar if you use lucuma and stevia. Baby Leo helped me put the toppings on and Kai helped me stir the chocolate + coconut butter! Get your kids involved + start young so they don't know the difference! 

Let us know how much you love it, too! 

Gather:

• 1 C coconut butter 
• 1/2 C cacao magic powder 
• 14 C honey, maple syrup or lucuma powder 
• 1 T green dream powder
• 1/2 C coconut flakes 
• 2 T goji berries 
• 2 T sunflower or pumpkin seeds (you could add ANY toppings you want, they don't have to be the above!)
•  optional protein powder

 Do This:

1. Place coconut butter into a heat proof bowl over a pot of slowly simmering water. Make sure bowl doesn't touch water.

2. Take the bowl off the pot when it's melted. Stir in cacao magic, green dream powder and sweetener of choice. (and any other superfoods... I added extra maca + lucuma!)

3. Spread liquid chocolate into a parchment lined baking tray.

4. Sprinkle all toppings over the top. 

5. Place in fridge for 30 min or til set (freezer will be faster) once set, break up into small pieces! 

*Add optional additional protein powder (when your mixing in the sweetener/superfoods) if you want! Xoxo 

Rich and buttery coconut cream bites, with cacao nibs + Green Dream superfood powder! 

SUPERFOOD Cookie Dough Bites

makes ~ 16 balls or hearts

• 1 C coconut butter
• 1/3 C coconut nectar, maple syrup, agave or honey
• 2 T Cacao Nibs
• 1 T Green Dream superfood powder
• OPTIONAL: add 1 scoop vanilla, raw, organic whey powder for extra protein. if you're using our protein be sure to take out half the sweetner above because there is stevia in the protein! You don't want it to become too sweet! 

Combine all of the ingredients in a bowl + knead the mixture by hand. Refrigerate until somewhat hardened, about 20 minutes.

Scoop out 2 tablespoons, roll into a ball by hand. Use coconut oil on your hands to make the rolling smoother, if necessary. Continue rolling to make the remaining balls.

If you have chocolate molds, use those instead of making balls. 

Store refrigerated until ready to eat.
