Simple, Yet Powerful, Recipes Using FeelGood Organic Superfoods®
Updated: May 10, 2022
I love FeelGood Superfoods products, so I'm so excited for this collab and to share with you my full Feel Good Organic Superfoods review and the 3 easy recipes in this post!
Eating With FeelGood Organic Superfoods®: What Are Superfoods?
Before we get into the recipes, I want to quickly address the buzz around "superfoods." Talk about the benefits of superfoods has only continued to grow in the last few years!
And while I'm always a huge proponent of making sure you get whole, natural foods into your diet each and every day, there's no denying that there are benefits to using superfood powders as well.
First off, what the heck are superfoods?
There is technically no food group category with this title, but the foods that are considered to be super are known for their extra-strong capabilities to support our health. They are loaded with beneficial nutrients:
antioxidants
healthy fats
vitamins
minerals
Superfood powders are simply the dehydrated version of these superfoods ground down into powders. Why use superfood powders? Because this process typically results in a powder mixture that is:
extremely nutrient-dense per serving
unbelievably easy to add to all kinds of meals
This leads me to the purpose of today's post: how to use the FeelGood Superfoods® powders to take some of your favorite easy recipes to the next level!
I love sharing recipes that make healthy eating simple— which is why almost everything I share is customizable to what you have in the kitchen or what your taste buds prefer. Make these recipes your own! If you're using the FeelGood Superfoods®, you're getting the benefits.
FeelGood Organic Superfoods® Reviews
I want to make this somewhat of a FeelGood Organic Superfoods® review so that you know why I choose to use these products. I love using FeelGood Organic Superfoods® for many, many reasons. It's not just because they make food taste good, although that certainly doesn't hurt.
FeelGood Organic Superfoods® are great because:
They are organic.
They have no additives or extra ingredients. If you want the superfood Camu Camu, that's what you're getting.
Sometimes the absorption of a superfood can be maximized when fortified with another ingredient, like turmeric and black pepper. They work this into their mixtures (disclosed on specific packages) so that you don't have to do this work yourself
They have an extensive line of superfood powders, making them a one-stop-shop for all my needs
Essentially, my FeelGood Superfoods® review is nothing but positives. I've yet to have a bad experience with any of their products that I've tried. (Disclosure: I have only tried their superfood powders, nothing else)
Are FeelGood Superfoods® An Affordable Healthy Option?
Recommending healthy products based on their affordability is important to me. And when it comes to food health, I know that the most important piece is whole natural food.
So while superfood powders can be natural food in a sense, they shouldn't be relied on as full nutrition. AKA, don't fill up your budget on superfood powders if you don't have the actual essentials first.
FeelGood Superfoods® has a large range of products, all at very different costs. Even within the superfood powders line the price of a packet can range from $7 to $35. (Sizes vary too)
I'm not a nutritionist, so specifics should always be discussed with a professional. In my opinion, FeelGood Superfoods® can be an affordable healthy option depending on which products you're getting and whether or not it makes your specific grocery bill go too high.
Get the essentials first.
So let's get into the good stuff: the recipes.
3 Easy FeelGood Organic Superfoods® Recipes
I love superfood powders because they are such a quick and easy way to take any recipe that you already know how to make and take it to the next level.
Without adding much flavor or changing the consistency of a recipe, superfood powders give you a lot of benefits. These recipes are all incredibly easy to make, yet loaded with good stuff thanks to the addition of superfoods.
You'll probably already know how to make some of these, so mix and match what you love with these recipes and throw these powders into your own similar recipes!
1) Overnight Oats With Camu Camu Powder
Oatmeal has been a staple in my morning meal rotation over the years because of how easy it is to pack full with variety, optimizing nutritional value. A good bowl of oatmeal has a variety of nutrients and gives me the energy to take on the day.
Overnight oats are even tastier than original oatmeal—at least I think so anyway-—and are really great for meal prep. Save that precious time in the AM and still eat good!
That's why I took my favorite overnight oats recipe to the next level with FeelGood Superfoods® Camu Camu Powder to get even more out of it.
The Camu Camu powder is subtly tart and delicious in these overnight oats- plus it's packed with Vitamin C and may have other benefits, like reducing inflammation. Sounds like a win-win to me!
WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE CAMU CAMU OVERNIGHT OATS
1 cup of old fashioned oats
chia seeds (~1oz or 2tbsp)
pure maple syrup (~1oz)
vanilla extract (~1/2tsp)
Greek yogurt (a few scoops)
Milk of choice
A handful of Blueberries (or fruit of preference)
A handful of Almonds (or nuts of preference)
HOW TO MAKE OVERNIGHT OATS WITH FEELGOOD SUPERFOODS®
Whipping up some amazing overnight oats only takes a few steps and a couple of minutes. And the best part is that you can truly customize your oats exactly how you like them; this recipe works as a great guideline.
Start by adding the oats to a mason jar or another jar with a sealable lid. Add the rest of the toppings and finish by pouring the milk until most of the oats are covered. This typically is about 1/2-3/4 of a cup for me.
Simply stir everything up, cover and place in the fridge overnight or for at least 4 hours. When it comes out, you'll notice that the consistency has thickened a lot due to the chia seeds sucking up the liquids and expanding.
2) Acai Ice Cream
For a long time, I was skeptical of "nice" cream recipes because of how much I love the real thing. But sometimes when I am craving ice cream and don't have any on hand, I'll make some sort of smoothie to fill the void.
This recipe is perfect for bridging that gap!
This Acai Ice Cream tastes so good, has way less sugar than regular ice cream, and is easy to make! Using only a few simple ingredients, you can have a delicious and nutritious dessert in no time.
Acai flavor is tart and sweet and the berries are a superfood because they have a lot of antioxidants, fatty acids, and fiber. It's great for adding to smoothies and other dishes, including this easy-at-home ice cream recipe.
HERE'S WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE ACAI ICE CREAM
FeelGood Superfoods Acai Powder (2 tsp)
frozen bananas, peeled and sliced (~1 cup)
frozen fruit/berries (handful)
vanilla extract (~1/2tsp)
can of unsweetened coconut milk (as needed)
MAKE NUTRITIOUS ICE CREAM RIGHT AT HOME
To make this delicious and healthy acai ice cream, you're going to want to freeze bananas beforehand. They serve as the base of this recipe, supporting most of the consistency.
Pro tip: freeze the bananas peeled and sliced to avoid unnecessary hassle with frozen peels.
I then take my blender and add about 1 cup of the frozen bananas along with the Acai Powder. Vanilla extract isn't necessary, but it is a nice touch.
The frozen fruit you choose is also up to you, depending on your taste preference. For my ice cream, I use a mixed berry mixture of blueberries, raspberries, and strawberries.
The final steps are just as simple, but you do need to pay attention so you don't over blend the mixture.
Pour about 1/4 cup of coconut milk into the blender to help with the blending. Frozen fruit is hard to blend, so I recommend a power blender like a Ninja, or you might need it to thaw a bit first.
Blend until you get a soft-serve consistency, slowly adding coconut milk as necessary to help the ice cream blend. Serve immediately if you like the soft-serve consistency, or put back into the freezer for a while if hard ice cream is your favorite!
Enjoy this recipe for a sweet antioxidant treat.
3) Turmeric Latte
If you're looking for Feel Good Turmeric® Powder Recipes, this is a great one to start with!
Turmeric is a spice that has been used for literally thousands of years, especially in Indian culture, to add flavor to certain dishes. But it's also one of the most nutrient-dense supplements due to its medicinal compounds.
Studies now show just how turmeric's anti-inflammatory abilities and antioxidants have powerful capabilities, such as increasing brain function and lowering your risk of disease.
You might have heard of Golden Milk, a warm and nutrient-dense beverage that people make before bedtime. Think of the turmeric latte as a delicious caffeinated version of moon milk!
The turmeric latte is a great way to boost the nutrition level of your cup and shake your normal routine up. Its got both sweet and spicy elements and is perfect for a productive morning.
Plus, it's easy to make at home without special latte equipment, if you're like me and haven't invested in those.
INGREDIENTS NEEDED TO MAKE TURMERIC LATTE
FeelGood Superfoods Turmeric Powder (1 scoop, ~1.5 tsp)
Almond Milk (or milk of choice) (~1/2 cup)
Vanilla Extract (~1/2tsp)
Raw Honey (~1tsp)
Cinnamon
Coffee (~3/4 cup)
HOW TO MAKE THE TURMERIC LATTE RIGHT AT HOME
Making lattes at home without a machine is kinda my thing.
To make this quick and nutritious latte, I put everything (but the coffee) into a microwave-safe glass and heat for 1 minute. I then cover and shake hard for about 60 seconds. Alternatively, you could use your frother here if you have one.
In terms of a Feel Good Turmeric Powder® Review, I have no complaints about this product. I love that there is a fortified option (turmeric fortified with black pepper absorbs better). The quality is amazing and it flawlessly mixes into any turmeric recipe I make every time!
Once the milk becomes nice and foamy, with all of the ingredients nicely mixed, pour the milk into your cup of coffee. Make sure to hold the foam back with a spoon and then let it gently fall on top at the end. (This is how you get the latte look!)
I love to top the drink with a few more shakes of cinnamon. So good! It's still sweet, but slightly spicy and warms up any morning.
