Fab Food Friday: Milk, Honey & Spice

With the stay-at home orders continuing, staying healthy is truly a full-time job everyday! Here is a look at some great ways to infuse certain healthy spices in your everyday tea and snack times! Green tea,as many have read up on, have great antioxidants and have far less caffeine than coffee. Jasmine is a great infusion of happy wrapped into this fragrant tea from Numi! Another great tea is Ginger flavored from Harney & Sons, which is minimal on ingredients, really let’s the Ginger be the star and can aid in digestion among other usages! I have the Jasmine tea with my oatmeal as a second breakfast around 10am and the ginger tea is a great pick me up for a snack around 3pm along with my Kind bar prior to working out at 5pm.
The Trader Joe’s Coconut Milk infused with Turmeric & Ginger is great on its own warmed up to create a pre-mixed Golden Milk to have as you wind down for the day or I also use for my milk base in my Beet & Banana smoothie for my first breakfast of the day! Turmeric has great anti-inflammatory properties! Finally the Pacific Food oat milk is my new go to for my smoothie base along with Coconut Water, Beets, & peanut butter, a great balance of fruit/veggie/protein/electrolytes to get you started in the am!
