Dairy-Free Coffee Creme

by

My dairy-free coffee creme is so simple and delicious, you’ll be able to whip it up easily in no time at all.  When I make fresh brewed coffee, I serve it with my coffee cream and coconut sugar, which is also full of nutrients! Go ahead, honey, it’s dairy-free! 🙂

*Always be sure and buy organic coffee beans! Coffee beans are a crop that are heavily sprayed with glyphosates when not organic.

Hazelnut Milk Hot Cacao

by

My Hazelnut Milk Hot Cacao is my favorite hot chocolate. I think you’ll love it too!

Hazelnuts are rich in the minerals magnesium, phosphorous, zinc, copper, iron, manganese, calcium, and selenium.

Hazelnuts are also rich in vitamins K, folate, thiamin, niacin, and vitamin E, which is great for tissue and skin.

*I buy my hazelnuts at Trader Joe’s.
