Boy O’ Boy do I have a treat for you today. I’ve taken the great combination of (grass-fed) yogurt and (paleo) granola, and made it a frozen yogurt treat.

I can’t say exactly why, but I’m drawn to flax seeds lately. More specifically, ground flax.
When an article offering me 70 Reasons To Eat More Flaxseed arrived in my inbox, I knew it was destiny: eat some flax.
As a result, I whipped up these bars and, well, they’re awesome. They’ll satisfy any sweet tooth, as well as make any momma proud to serve these to her family (after she gobbles up a couple of them herself, of course).
Why call them The Lazy Flax Bars?
Well. I entered the kitchen to make these with crazy ambition to make Flax Balls. But, as I mixed up the recipe and saw the amount of “dough” being created, I quickly abandoned the idea of rolling out a gazillion balls. Read: I’m lazy.
Um, I quickly pressed them into a baking dish.
Therefore, these are ridiculously easy to make. They’ll freeze well if you want to save half for another day.
The Lazy Flax Bars are full of some good ingredients, including flax seeds. <– Good for your boobs.
(Tip: Buy flax seeds “whole” and grind them before using to receive the optimal nutrition.)
I also included Brain Octane oil, which is optional. <– Good for the brain.
I added dark chocolate chips. <– Good for the brain and heart, and let’s not forget our souls.)
Oh, there’s raw honey in there. <– Magical stuff. Nuff’ said.
Throw all of the ingredients into a food processor, give her a whirl. Done.
Yield 8×8 glass dish (call it 16 + bars)
I find myself, way more often than not, thinking about food when I’m going to bed at night. I am either thinking about how I ate for the day with a check and balance effort or I am thinking about a new recipe I want to create or I am planning my breakfast for the following morning.
Last night I did two of those.

Living in the desert I get my share of sinus headaches (and I suspect anyone who experiences a dry winter climate does, too). I’ve learned of two very effective ways to deal with them. One is with this freakin’ great Panasonic nano facial steamer (unlike any other steamer I’ve used… expensive but worth it) and the following recipe for Sinus Kicker. (I’ll share more on how I use the steamer in a later post… it upgraded my oil cleansing routine.)

Over the past few months I’ve been researching the topic of herbal antivirals and herbal antibacterials. I’ve learned a lot to say the least. My family’s supply of immune boosting tonics, tinctures, herbs, etc is damn impressive, and if our house ever caught on fire, I’d probably grab as much of those as I could instead of my laptop, etc. Ha! Seriously though, I feel empowered to kick anything’s ass that comes my family’s way.
Entered into our home: the flu.
We had the flu in our house with our little one recently, and in my determination to heal her in record speed (which she did), and preventing my husband and me from getting it, I created this crazy wonderful drink, Golden Immunity. It’s filled with everything the body needs to nip the flu virus in the bud or help you prevent getting it, if you’re around people with influenza.
I made the drink on the spicy edge so I didn’t give it to Kamea. For Kamea, I did a number of other things from probiotics to lyposome encapsulated vitamin C plus vitamin D3/K2 drops, various tinctures like this Cherry Bark, this Astragalus, and this Dr. Christopher’s Echinacea Angustifolia, and homemade elderberry syrup (plus more) multiple times a day. (If you don’t make your elderberry syrup you can buy it here.)
Making Golden Immunity is a 3 step process to make it, but beyond worth it. There are no amounts listed in my rough outlined recipe, but I made a batch with 3 cups which Greg and I shared. Just eyeball everything because as long as you’re getting the following ingredients in, it’s immensely beneficial.
