I’d like to call these lemon pesto zoodles “Summer on a plate”. This dish is my jam and it’s about to be yours too.

It’s no secret I love smoothies. From green smoothies to berry smoothies, they are typically my go-to for a quick and healthy breakfast.
But adding kombucha smoothie? This is a new one for me.

Hip hip for energy bites!
Or energy balls
Or super delicious yet healthy bite-sized treats.
Whatever you wanna call em, these filling snacks are the perfect snack.
We’re going to call em’ energy bites today.
I loveeee me some energy bites. They are the perfect snack to keep on hand to keep hunger at bay. They are great for a pre-workout or post-workout fuel, snacking on the go, or just a little sweet treat to feed your sweet tooth.
What I love best is the ingredients are cheap and simple, but also this recipe is no-bake and naturally plant-based.
Creamy peanut butter, oats, chia seeds, coconut rolled together in a ball and adorned with chocolate chips. This easy, no-bake recipe can be pulled together in less than 20 minutes. Best of all, these peanut butter chocolate chip energy bites are naturally vegan, gluten-free, and full of REAL and SIMPLE ingredients!
I’m a major energy bites fan. They are super simple to make, the flavor combos are virtually endless, and they are a healthy snack option. What more could you want? From coconut lime to peanut butter mocha, and even fig bliss balls, I’m crazy about these bite-size treats!
When life hands you lemons, just add some activated charcoal and make lemonade! Charcoal lemonade is the PERFECT way to stay hydrated, detox, and get a taste of Summer all in one sip. Activated charcoal, fresh lemons, and maple syrup make this charcoal lemonade deliciously good.
Charcoal lemonade might look weird (or super cool) depending on how you look at it, but it’s packed with some crazy detox powers.
Lemons and maple syrup are a metabolism boosting combo and when charcoal is added to the mix, it becomes a really healthy (and delicious) beverage! I swear this stuff tastes JUST LIKE regular lemonade.
What is activated charcoal?
Activated charcoal is NOT the charcoal you use for grills. It’s charcoal that has been heated at high temperates to make it more digestible. It’s gaining popularity for natural skincare, but it can have the same detoxing benefits for your body as your skin!
It can come in a capsule or powdered form. I like the powdered form, but make sure to measure it and not just “eyeball”!
No-churn banana nice cream is what dreams are made of. Frozen bananas and creamy coconut milk make up the base and its jam-packed with chocolate chips and nuts! Best part is all you need is a food processor and five ingredients to get the job done. Enjoy ice cream without the guilt this Summer!
What is banana nice cream?
Perhaps you’ve heard the term before, or maybe you just think there’s a typo, but NICE CREAM is a thing! It’s a delicious vegan substitute for ice cream and instead of cream, we use frozen bananas. The banana base turns into a creamy, indulgent ice cream that is totally dairy-free AND healthy!
But of course, I don’t stop there. In this nice cream recipe, I add cold coconut milk for extra creaminess (and healthy fats).
