After teaching a 630am Jivamukti class at Yoga Plus Ortigas, I was choosing betwen taking a yoga class at Bliss Greenhills or going home for self-practice. Teaching at three studios in five locations gives me the benefit of taking any of the classes for free, so I figured I'd go take class and enjoy being a student. It was definitely the right choice. Not only did I enjoy Isabel's class, I also bumped into Carmela (one of the two super vegans behind The Superfood Grocer) and she invited me for lunch at her home. How can I refuse? As it turns out, this is Carmela's idea of "impromptu lunch" with "having nothing prepared".
I love that she used real vegetables. As an advocate of healthy eating, she prepared the meal with whole foods and fresh ingredients only. Even the ice cream that she whipped out on the spot was largely unprocessed. It was a combination of frozen strawberries, raw cashews, vanilla hemp rice powder, and soy milk! I ate a lot, but that's not surprising at all.
She organizes her superfood ingredients in mason jars. They look pretty! I am so happy with The Superfood Grocer raw cacao nibs that she gave me as a birthday gift! So if you see me devouring something that looks like chocolate, I am really just getting my dose of antioxidants, iron, magnesium, happy hormones and whatnot. I'm healthy that way, you see!
The Superfood Grocer is the place to get your Maca Root, Malunggay Leaves, Coco Cacao Nibs, Coconut Sugar, Camu Camu Berry, White Chia Seeds, Vanilla Hemp Rice Protein, and Spirulina. The prices are competitive and they deliver right to your doorstep! Also ask about health and nutrition seminars with full-course meals that they hold upon request. Trust me, the food alone is worth it!
