Since being gluten free, I have come to love recipes with Almond Flour. I know almost a year ago, when I would hear gluten free, I would think, man that must be missing the good stuff. Now I know, gluten free is not missing the good stuff, it has the good stuff! Here is another Dr. Axe recipe that is uhMazing.

My hubby and I really like following Dr. Axe on the radio. He is on 99.7 on Sunday nights, he is a health and wellness Dr. We recently went to his Maximized Living Seminar, and got incredible facts of what foods do to our bodies. I love learning what our super fruits and veggies are, and what all that other junk we love to eat too do to our bodies. It got me inspired to take on a few of his recipes. He is not vegan/vegetarian. But believes eating a balanced food life, can do wonders to your body. I will post all my good info and notes tomorrow to my blog! If you like facts on how to live a healthier life, and give your body the goodness it needs, tune in tomorrow to my blog.
Here is one of his recipes we made this week, we really enjoyed.
