Happy Sunday friends! I know I’ve been off of IG for a couple of days, but that’s because I was preparing for a very special visit all the way from Morocco! My sweet mother-in-law came to visit and I wanted everything to be perfect for when she arrived. Anyway, I wanted to share my quick 3-ingredient #strawberryjam recipe with you. Remember, most conventional jams are loaded with unnecessary sugars such as cornstarch and cane sugar as well as preservatives, “natural flavors”, fillers, and gums. These are all things that your body doesn’t need. 👎🏽 Give this recipe a try and indulge knowing you are getting nutritional value from this super yummy jam! 🤤🍓 You can use this jam as a spread, a smoothie topping, add it to your fave yogurt to make it a strawberry yogurt, bake it in Paleo thumbprint cookies, etc! Enjoy! Peace and blessing -L ☮️💜. Strawberry Jam Recipe by PureVidaLinzita. * 2 lbs strawberries washed very well with stems and leaves removed and chopped into pieces 🍓 * Juice from 1/2 a lemon 🍋 * Depending on your preference for sweetness, between zero to 1/4 cup honey 🍯. ____________________________________________ 1. Place all berries and lemon juice in a pan or saucepan and sauté on medium heat until nice and soft making sure to stir occasionally. 2. With a masher or fork, break down berry chunks so that they are less chunky and more pulpy. 3. Add the honey and continue to stir on medium-low heat 4. Let the jam slightly cool and place it in a jar. This recipe gave me enough to fill 2 jars. 5. Enjoy!

Happy Monday friends! Today I wanted to share some of my favorite clean, non-toxic #skincare and hair products. Our pores absorb everything that is put on our skin, so why would anyone want to be putting products with synthetic fragrances, carcinogens, skin irritants, and other toxic (unregulated since the 1930s) ingredients? Primally Pure is an amazing clean company. I’ve been using their products for months and really enjoy the results my skin has had. With all the hand washing I have to do because of my compromised immune system, my hands can get dry and I have #eczema flares now and then. When my skin starts acting up though, I religiously use their body butter. IT 👏🏽 IS👏🏽AMAZING👏🏽! It does not burn my cracked or blistered skin and actually feels soothing because of the tallow they use. Some other favorites are the lip balms in peppermint and lavender. They smell so soothing and have a great smooth texture. The Everything Spray is a toner I use both morning and night. It’s refreshing and gives you that spa-like feel without going to the spa. I am also a huge fan of their deodorant! Yes, a CLEAN NON-TOXIC deodorant that works! @primallypure doesn’t just offer skincare products, but they have an awesome clean dry shampoo that caters to both blonde and brunette hair. As a hairstylist, I am very aware of how dirty conventional dry shampoos are. They are filled with toxic chemicals. I would always have to hold my breath and pretend to grab something from another part of the salon just to avoid the fumes from the dry shampoos used for styling. Primally Pure’s dry shampoo works just the same as your conventional dry shampoos. I use it and will continue to use it because it has the same results for styling! Anyway, have a great Monday! Peace and blessings. -L ☮️💜 #natureissmarterthanscience

It was a combo of sweet and gold potatoes, red onions, Tex-Mex spices, and of course eggs! 🍳 Top your portion with some fresh avocado for an extra kick of flavor and nutrient density. This #paleobreakfast is sure to keep me full while I’m out and about enjoying my Saturday! Peace and blessings! -L ☮️💜
