BEAUTY BROWNIES

What happens when you combine your beauty routine with chocolate? Thats right, beauty brownies. With 3 serves of Collagen Beauty in this high protein chocolate delight, this will quickly become the most delicious part of your new beauty routine! Hot tip: Double or triple the batch.

You will need: 

200g The Wholefood Pantry Dark Choc Buttons 

100g organic butter

100g The Wholefood Pantry Coconut Oil 

1 cup The Wholefood Pantry Coconut Sugar

1/4 cup Clean Protein (Vanilla) 

3/4 cup Collagen Beauty (or body)

3 eggs 

1/4 cup The Wholefood Pantry Cacao Powder

Pinch of The Wholelfood Pantry Himalayan Salt

Then: 

In a double boiler (which is a pot with water simmering on the stove, with a heatproof boil on top) melt your buttons, butter, coconut oil and coconut sugar together. Set aside to cool for 10 minutes or so. 

Sift together the collagen beauty, cacao powder and clean protein. 

Add the wet to the dry ingredients and stir in your eggs and salt. Give the mixture a good ole mix together - should be smoothie and shinny. 

Pour into a baking paper lined tray (we used a 12cmx12cm square tray) and bake for about 20 minutes. Pop a knife into the centre and if it comes out clean, its done. If not, pop them back in for 5 minutes. 

Cool for about 10 minutes then slice into 12 pieces and serve. Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (they won't last that long).

PUMPKIN PANCAKES WITH MAPLE BACON

The pumpkin provides beta-carotene and the addition of ginger, tumeric and cinnamon aids in digestion, anti - inflammatory properties and blood glucose regulation.

Add almond milk, maple syrup, eggs, quinoa flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger and pink himalyan salt. Mix with a large wooden spoon until desired consistancy.

Grease and warm pan, add oil on a medium heat. Pour 1/4 cup of mixture into your pan, cook until bubbles begin to rise to the surface of the pancake and the underside is golden brown. Flip and cook for 20 - 30 secs on the second side. Continue until all the batter is used.

MISO BROTH POT NOODLE

Stuck at your desk? Take this nifty jar of goodness to work and power through that to-do list.  

Ingredients:

2 tsp organic red miso paste

1 heaped tbsp Beef Bone Broth Powder

A few dashes tamari (gluten free soy sauce)

A few dashes sesame oil

3 slices dried shiitake mushrooms (optional)

1 sheet Nori cut into strips

Lime wedge 

Dried noodles of your choice

A mixture of thinly sliced vege, we used: 1/2 a carrot, 1/2 a zucchini, 4 brocoli florets - halved, 3 snow peas - halved

Then: 

Place miso paste, beef bone broth, soy and sesame oil in a jar. Top with noodles, vegetables, dried mushrooms and nori. Fasten the lid and place in refrigerator until required.

When ready to eat, remove the lime wedge, fill the jar with boiling water, stir around with a fork to cook the noodles, and distribute the miso broth flavour, then season with the lime juice to your liking - a little goes a long way so start with only a few drops and adjust if you like a sharper flavour profile.

The noodles and veg will only take a few minutes to soften. 

Note: Dried Shiitake mushrooms make for a heartier tasting broth, but aren’t necessary if you don’t have them on hand.
