See this search field in the original post

We’ve been talking wellness rituals and habits all month long! Getting in the habit of fitting fruits and veggies in your daily diet that span the colors of the rainbow is a good way to ensure you’re getting lots of vitamins and nutrients that will then travel into your body and skin and help you look healthy and radiant.

Below are some recipes I make at home that contain lots of colorful, fresh foods. Your skin will thank you for the recipe inspo! 🌈

scrub me secret: Eat these Fritters with your favorite dipping sauce (mine is greek yogurt based ranch) or mash up some avocado and spread it on your fritters for an addition of healthy fats, its delish!

scrub me secret: EAting a colorful salad like this helps your body intake fiber, potassium, b vitamins as well as vitamins A and C. Garlic and cumin add anti-inflammatory benefits and the cucumber and lettuce contain hydrating elements. Avocado and olive oil contain healthy fats that are great to eat in the right amounts.

scrub me secret: Cooking fruit is actually a great way to eat it if your digestion is sensitive to fibrous foods. Cooking fruit helps break down fiber so its easier to digest but it doesn’t compromise the nutrients in the fruit.

Tasty, Vitamin-Rich Smoothie Combos🥤

scrub me secret: Lacking greens in your diet? Toss a handful of spinach into a smoothie with your favorite fruits plus banana and/or pineapple. The banana and pineapple are so sweet you won’t even know you’re getting a serving of spinach.
