HYDRATING 🍉💦 Watermelon-Lime Cooler from @no HYDRATING 🍉💦 Watermelon-Lime Cooler from @nourishmekitchen’s AMAZING NEW cookbook 👏🏻! I’m not exaggerating when I say this woman has changed my life. I’m so grateful to have found her through an internet search 11 years ago when going through the worst of my chronic health struggles. She’s a talented naturopath, acupuncturist, healer, and overall incredible person. Her NEW book set includes a wellness guide + cookbook and is just as fabulous as she is. Here’s one of the recipes I’ve tried (and loved ❤️):

3 cups fresh or frozen watermelon
1/2 cup lime juice (~2 medium limes)
1/4 cup loosely packed fresh mint leaves
1 cup ice
1 cup water
Liquid stevia (optional)
8 fresh basil leaves (optional)
1/2 small cucumber, roughly chopped (peeled if not organic; optional)

Blend and enjoy! 🥂😋

I salvaged this Mr. Potato Head looking sweet potato that was otherwise headed for the compost and turned him into a bunch of little sweet potato plants based on a method I saw recommended in a YouTube video. And it worked 🎉 (can’t guarantee it actually produces sweet potatoes yet though 😜).
