If you are anything like me and survived the first few weeks of healthy eating–New Year’s resolution, let me be the first to congratulate you. They say it takes a month to create a habit and the finish line is in sight. Continuing on my healthy journey, this year, I plan to go even further than the previous years. My goal is to cut back on easy grocery store products and convert them to weekly home-made staples. What does this mean?
Almond milk is at the top of that list and yet, so simple. It barely takes a few minutes and just like that, I’ve saved myself $3 on a weekly bases. I know the exact ingredients and how it is made. No preservatives or hidden unknowns. Checkout the recipe below and I hope you get a chance to add this one to your weekly staples, as well.
