Smoothies + Elixir Magic
Blend up some tasty fun in this healthy workshop!
Smoothies and elixirs are a powerful way to tuck a payload of nutritious foods into a delectable, easy-to-digest package. If you’re stuck in a smoothie rut or simply don’t find drinking one satisfying enough, you may be in need of some blender rescue!
Join me for a delicious culinary nutrition experience, where you’ll discover the secrets to a perfectly balanced drink, how to formulate smoothies and elixirs for maximum taste and nutrition, and the special ways you can ‘amp up’ your smoothie or elixir to make it extra snazzy.
All of the recipes are gluten-free, dairy-free and soy-free, with vegan options if needed.
You will walk away from this workshop with:
A solid understanding what smoothies and elixirs are, along with the health benefits of each.
Knowledge of essential ingredients you need in your daily smoothie or elixir.
How to transform your smoothies + elixirs into a satiating, full meal.
6 delicious and nutrient-rich smoothie + elixir recipes.
Meal prep tips that will help you ease the breakfast or snack rush.
A single glass or mug can help you enhance your health, boost energy levels, improve digestion and immunity, reduce inflammation and more. And there is so much variety of flavours to enjoy!
