coconut + turmeric protein bark


insanely delicious and a perfect snack on the go...i know you'll love this treat!

turmeric is obviously an amazing food, as I'm sure you already know. anti inflammatory and a whole host of other benefits. but, in order for your body to properly assimilate and use it, it must be consumed with black pepper, which is also a great digestive aid.


these two super spices are paired with the amazing collagen protein (which you can always sub for whatever protein you have on hand), and the yummy and nutritious fats from coconut. as always, you can substitute any sweetener for the stevia, just add it to taste. you may find it doesn't need any sweetener at all!

1/3 c coconut oil

1/4 c coconut butter
1 dropper full of stevia (or to taste)
2 T collagen protein powder
1 t turmeric
pinch of black pepper
pinch of vanilla bean powder

-blend all ingredients together until very smooth. line a dish with parchment paper and sprinkle 1/3 c chopped macadamia nuts over the bottom. pour mixture over the nuts evenly and set in freezer for 10-15 minutes until firm. break into bite-sized pieces and enjoy! (best if kept in fridge or freezer).
