    5-Ingredient Collagen Protein Bars

    Apr 13, 2022 • Breakfast, Snacks

    Jump to Recipe·Print Recipe

    Hi friends! Going to make this short and sweet because my baby is going to wake up any minute. In this season of life I do not have the time or mental capacity to create long blog posts accompanying beautiful photos that I once did… now it’s “how can I get this up and on the blog asap” so they can make the recipe with me?!

    Does anyone even read blog posts anymore? I miss the old days.

    Okay, stay on task and make it snappy.

    5-Ingredient Collagen Protein Bars… I’ve been making these for a couple months now and finally getting around to sharing them! This is a highly requested recipe and I think that’s because of the glyphosate-free collagen powder I use but also because most of the protein bars/collagen bars on the market suck and have terrible, gut-irritating ingredients. At least that is my experience. If you’re anything like me, you are trying to stay away from the heavily processed protein bars that make me bloated or hurt my stomach… and go back to simplicity. And who doesn’t need a quick and yummy protein bar to grab on the go? Or to have as breakfast with fruit and yogurt or something? These bars save me sometimes I swear!

    Each bar has 9 grams of protein if you follow this recipe! Have 2 of them and you’re up to 18!

    Coconut flour, collagen powder, coconut milk, sunflower seed butter and maple syrup. That’s it! I have not tried it with any substitutions.

    SHANNON // Hair Growth Tips
    FOR MY OILY GIRLS 🦄 These 3 tips have really FOR MY OILY GIRLS 🦄 

These 3 tips have really helped me combat the annoying oil to the point where now, I only have to wash twice a week. I’m sure you guys already know that washing LESS helps the scalp to stop overproducing so much oil. So washing less is the goal ⚡️ and I can help you get to this point because I know it’s scary/hard to do. But we also have to remember that oil after a couple days is completely normal, so there is a balance here.

Obviously these tips along with the right shampoo and conditioner for YOU is KEY. If you’d like a free custom consult you can DM me HAIR or take my Hair Quiz linked in my bio 🩷🙂🦄⚡️💅🏻👑🔥💛

    Have you checked the ingredients in your skin & ha Have you checked the ingredients in your skin & hair products lately? Your dry shampoo? 

The USA bans only 50 ingredients from cosmetics, 500 in Canada and 1300 in Europe! 😱😱 Did you know my products go be European standards? 

With the chemicals and environmental pollutants etc that we are exposed to daily that we can’t control, we can choose wisely the products we use and slather on our bodies/heads. Your skin absorbs EVERYTHING you put on it, your skin is your largest organ.

I’m sure you heard about the recall of millions of dry shampoos for containing BENZENE which is a cancer-causing ingredient that you are inhaling and spraying on your scalp multiple times per week. Many of them are STILL on the shelves! 😡 I have a better option for you that does not contain talc (an oil absorber also connected to cancer), propane or butane either, which are all connected to allergies and eye, lung and skin irritations.

Let’s do better for our hormones, skin, hair, health, kids health and environmental health. Let’s get you started on better products that you can trust.

Take my HAIR QUIZ linked in my bio or DM me HAIR and I can get you started 🧴🧴🧴🧴

    spiral curls for summer 🌀 I’ve always curle spiral curls for summer 🌀 

I’ve always curled my hair the same way until recently! Loving this look from our new spiral wand. This is apart of our curling wand that comes with 3 attachments 👀 there are some pieces of my hair that look crimpy so I need practice but it took the same amount of time as my normal curling wand.

PRODUCTS USED:
• anti-frizz blow out spray 
• the best ever dry shampoo
• texture spray for grit and hold
• flex control hairspray
• optional glossy shine mist 

Want to try my naturally-based products?! DM me PRODUCTS or take my hair quiz linked in my bio 🩷

    after a lot of soul searching.. I almost gave up after a lot of soul searching..

I almost gave up on my dream of being a SAHM while having an income. I thought I would have to choose one or the other. My head was spinning about it. But right before I gave up, an opportunity to sell naturally-based haircare products landed in my lap. Immediately it felt right.

Since then, my confidence has soared because I’ve been able to foster my independence and identity apart from being a mom. Mentally, this has been life-changing. I love being a mama more than anything and I also love having my own thing. My own business to build. My own income. I’ve realized you really can have the best of both worlds. I’m not just saying that mamas. 

Yes it takes work and time to build a business but it’s YOURS and no one else’s. We are so powerful when we put our minds to something. And so productive because we don’t have time to waste. 

If you’ve been looking for something like this and want more information on what this partnership would look like, just DM me BIZ and we can chat about it 🩷🩷🩷
