Juicing Recipes - Ultimate Juice Recipe Resouce

Hi, guys! I hope you’re having a nice weekend. I’m doing a little catch up this morning with some blog posts from a couple days ago. Let’s rewind to Thursday morning… and go! I woke up ready to eat and immediately made myself two rice cakes – one with sunflower butter and one with peanut butter – and topped them both with ground pumpkin seeds and banana slices. Delicious and filling! After breakfast, I got myself ready for a trip down to the Cape with Kerrie for a podcast with Mobius Media Solutions . I was actually pretty nervous for it, but it ended up being really fun in the end. We shared our story and how Designed to Fit came to be as well as some of our philosophies regarding food, health, and balance. We also chatted about the business side of things since, right now, the two of us are running four of them and trying to make it all work. I’ll be sure to share the episode with you guys once it’s live! Once we finished the podcast, I dropped Kerrie off at the ferry (she ...

How frustrating is it when you just can’t lose weight? You’re trying to eat right and exercise, but the numbers on the scale don’t move. Many registered dietitian nutritionists work one-on-one with clients and have experience as to why your waistline isn’t shrinking. I asked 5 dietitians the most common reason folks don’t lose weight and you’ll be surprised by what they had to say. 1. You’re cutting too many calories “When you diet and restrict calories too low, your body’s metabolism starts to slow down, necessitating a larger caloric deficit to lose weight. Meanwhile, your hunger hormone (ghrelin) gets out of control, which simultaneously leads you to overeat,” says Abbey Sharp, RD, blogger at Abbey’s Kitchen. Instead: Sharp recommends stopping the good food, bad food mentality, and focusing on your body’s unique hunger and satiety signals. Once you stop restricting, your body will stop feeling the need to overcompensate and binge whenever it gets the chance. When you eat mindfu...

Carnitas are usually made from pork that’s slow-cooked in lard until the meat melts down into tender little morsels. Those little morsels are then fried until crispy around the edges. Pork carnitas is delicious, there’s no doubt about it. This version of carnitas is delicious too, although quite different from the classic recipe. Instead of pork, lamb is subbed in. Lamb carnitas can be served in Primal tortillas or heaped in a bowl with cilantro, shredded cabbage, avocado, sour cream, and hot sauce. This is a flavorful departure from traditional lamb dishes and provides a delicious new way to ingest all the amazing nutrients lamb has to offer, like 8 essential amino acids, several B vitamins, niacin, zinc, iron and conjugated linoleic acid (CLA). Instead of lard, the lamb shoulder is simply braised in water that’s flavored with orange, garlic, onion, cinnamon , cumin , and coriander. When the meat is tender, fry it up quickly in a skillet, and lamb carnitas is served. Servings: ...
