On the weekend we celebrated Summer Solstice and the longest day of the year!
Summer is officially in full swing! What are your plans for this summer?

It looks like this is part of Reilly’s summer plan – full relax mode!

As summertime can be full of plans and summer activities, it can be easy to get busy! Here are some quick reminders for you to stay healthy and relaxed this summer:

1. Be Present: With kids and grandkids out of school, to-do’s, BBQ’s, summer activities and it is easy to lose presence in the busyness. Remind yourself to tune in, stay present and enjoy your summer days as they come – without worrying about future plans or past events.

2. Reboot and Recharge: Make sure you take some time for yourself this summer to get into nature and recharge your own battery. Enjoy the sunshine on your face and make sure to take time for yourself.

3. Stay Hydrated and Well Nourished: With warm temperatures, sometimes we can forget the simple things of a healthy and relaxed summer like keeping hydrated and nourished.

I like to use this 1 Gallon water bottle! I fill it up first thing in the morning and it is a great way to ensure I am getting ALOT of water in throughout the day!

Opting for nutrient dense , no bake snacks and meals are my go-to for summer. I share one of my favorite summertime recipes below!

Recipe of the Week:

Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Orange-Almond Sauce

Alright, so I know I’m not the only one who doesn’t want to turn on their stove this summer! This no cook recipe is a great lunch or light dinner option and completely delicious! I love the freshness of this Vietnamese dish and the Orange-Almond Sauce is as easy as throwing the ingredients in a blender and enjoying!

This is also a great recipe to reduce food waste as you can customize the veggies to what you have in your fridge!

 

Jaden’s Weekly Tip:

Spice Up Your Ice Cubes!

Let’s face it – I love an ice cold drink but hate when it gets watered down.
The solution for this is – creative ice cubes!

This was inspired by a submission from last week where frozen pickle brine was suggested to put in the perfect Bloody Mary.

 
The options are endless for creative ice cubes. You can freeze lemonade or juice for summer drinks, freeze coffee for iced coffee or add frozen fruit to drinks to cool them down without the dilution – hello frozen grapes in wine!

Do you have a favorite ice cube hack? Let us know in our facebook group or email it in!

 
Have a great week, take a peek at our new giveaways below and see you Friday!
 
With love,
