Strawberry Chia Seed Jam

Kris loves a good jam spread and it’s not always easy to find packaged jams without tons of added sugars and preservatives. When I do find better options to purchase, the taste and texture is generally not the best, so I decided to make my own! The magic ingredient here are CHIA SEEDS. Chia seeds thicken the jam, perfectly giving the jam that “jam” texture. I sweetened mine, but you can also not sweeten yours at all since the fruits generally are pretty sweet on their own… Especially strawberries.

Yellow & Orange Fruit Morning Smoothie

For the past 6 months I have been hooked on this or a variation of this smoothie for my daily breakfast. Every day until noon, I eat fruit, more specifically orange and yellow fruits (minus citrus and lemon) all blended together. Since doing this I have noticed a crazy change in my energy levels and digestion.

Organization, Pantry

How KG Organize’s Her Pantry

I am known for my OCD pantry organization. Being someone who is overly organized in most aspects of their life, my home, mainly my pantry would be no different. In my previous home, my pantry shelves were pretty narrow and I knew that if I left everything loose, every time I went to grab something other things would fall, and it would drive me insane. I found these amazing Clear Binz and decided to categorize everything by commodity (inspired by The Home Edit) and put things into their own bins and labelled them. Let me break it down, follow along (and shop the items) below.

Mashed Cauliflower

You may have seen an earlier recipe for my mashed sweet potatoes, one of my fave fall / winter side dishes. I also make this dish with cauliflower and have a Shepard’s pie recipe with this coming soon. If you like my sweet potato mashed potatoes, you will most likely love these too!

Sweet Potato Mash

In the fall months, I love a hot side dish at every dinner. On tonight’s menu: my mashed sweet potatoes. These are actually part of my Shepherd’s pie recipe (coming soon!) but you can get a little teaser by making these at home tonight.

Cold Brew Coffee

As many of you know, I have been a loyal bulletproof coffee (see article here) drinker for YEARS – but ever since I transitioned into food combining, some of my routines have changed, mainly caffeine. I still believe in and LOVE my BPC, but after cutting it out for a month to focus on food combining, cold brew coffee was suggested to me when re-adding caffeine into my life. I had heard the term “cold brew” for years and never really thought about it much or ever looked into it until recently.

KG’s InFamous Lemon Water

Before I bring in some of my creative counterparts, I thought it would be a good time for me to introduce myself (or re-introduce myself) to you. I’m Katherine, known as KGMTL and this is officially my new home. Merging my #InstaFam and Youtube followers took me a few months, ok, maybe closer to a year, but here we are. How could I launch this website without kicking it off with my fave morning ritual, what you guys know me for, my infamous lemon water (time stamp or it didn’t happen). Who would have ever thought that a glass of lukewarm water, sea salt and some lemon squeezes would become such a thing but it is pretty crazy the amount of body benefits you get from starting your day with this beverage.
