One day I was notoriously Insta scrolling and came across the amazingly talented @wellnesswithcourtnie and was instantly inspired by her bright, vibrant, and nourishing recipes and captures. During the New Year, we often set new desires for increasing our intake of nourishing and healthy foods and Courtnie makes it super easy (and f*cking stunning!). When you’re eating the rainbow you’ll forget what the word diet means and allow abundance and love to drive your actions.
Enjoy this super yummy and nourishing recipe by Courtnie ( @wellnesswithcourtnie )
