NEW! Mediterranean Bowl + Peach Probiotic Smoothie

RAWKSTAR SHOP • ALL RECIPES • MEAL PLANNER Happy monday, [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]! I hope you had a great weekend and enjoyed the warm weather blessing most of the US. I went on a 12-mile trail run in Quartz Mountain State Park with some running buddies. It was so beautiful outside... I couldn't stop smiling! I have a 3-day trail running stage race in Moab, Utah coming up in 10 days. I'm really glad this weekend run happened and I felt great. I think that means I'm ready for Moab!!!...

Do you trust your gut, [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]? It's that "feeling" you get out of the blue— like when my mom sensed the moment her dad died (and they were 2,660 miles apart). Yet it can also be that slightly uncomfortable feeling you get after eating a meal. 🤢 Our gut microbiome impacts the immune system, mental health + overall well being— and considered our "second brain." When our gut is healthy, we thrive. Healthy gut: gastrointestinal tract has a good balance of gut bacteria...

Happy Valentines Day, [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]! ❤️ My husband and I have a Valentine's Day tradition that we've been doing since we were 20-years old, in college and I was renting a one-bedroom apartment in Long Beach, CA. Let's see if you can guess it... We go on a sunset hike together 🥾 We watch 10 Things I Hate About You 🍿 We have a Taco Bell date 🌮 If you guessed the last one, you're right. We've kept this tradition going for 20 years now. Some years we dress up for it, but most...

Not sure if I've shared my journey with you, [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]. It's a good one. Let's talk about how a stay-at-home pastor's wife on WIC grocery aid with two toddlers (who loved Taco Bell, Good & Plenty's and Lucky Charms) bought a laptop and a reconditioned Vitamix and started blogging about green smoothies, jackfruit tacos and homemade almond milk. Let's go back to 2010... Jackson was two years old and constantly sick. He had boogers galore, ear infections every other week...

Happy Monday, [FORMATTED_FIRST_NAME GOES HERE]! I hope you were able to slow down, relax and recharge a little bit this weekend. My husband, Ryan, and I did a Polar Plunge 5K on Saturday. At the end of the race, we plunged into a freezing lake with 100 other people in 38° temps. I've never felt so cold 🥶 and so alive at the same time. Would I do it again? 100% yes! 🙌 Now, I wanted to share my smoothie recipes that I'm blending this week. These smoothies are featured in "Pre-Cleanse Week",...
