    5-Minute Anything Glow Sauce

    Glow Bowl with 5-Minute Anything Glow Sauce. Vegan, Gluten Free. Super easy, quick, delicious and healthy. This homemade sauce and/or salad dressing recipe is versatile for many flavors and meals!

    Meet my ‘5-Minute Anything Glow Sauce’.

    It’s everything you’ve ever wanted in a yummy homemade sauce or dressing!

    Super easy. Quick. Pretty. Delish. Healthy!

    I’ve learned that having some sort of dressing or sauce on hand makes me more inclined to put kale in a bowl (amongst other things) for nourishing lunches that take less than 5 minutes to make. I aim to eat huge salads at lunch to get my greens in. Otherwise, I end up eating protein bars, an apple, crackers and whatever else I can quickly get my hands on. When hunger strikes, all self control goes out the window! If I don’t have something healthy and ready-made to fuel my lunchtime inspiration, I end up eating snacks on snacks rather than a real meal, and I never feel fully satisfied.

    This is especially true for weekday lunches! The last thing I want is to spend time making lunch, which is why weekly meal prep is so essential, at least for me anyway. I always roast a bunch of veggies (specific to the cycle phase I’m in that week – see my Hormone Healing Meal Plan for more info on that!) along with a phase-specific grain, legume and/or bean. For example, having pre-drained and rinsed chickpeas in a glass container makes my life so much easier when it’s time for lunch because it allows me to quickly toss them in a bowl with kale, the veggies I roasted and the sauce I made – like this ‘5-Minute Anything Glow Sauce’! Check out my Spicy Magic Green Sauce recipe too – that one’s SO ADDICTING.

    I’m left with the perfect quick and easy lunch, filled with veggies and greens! This recipe has a thinner consistency because I don’t always want a thick, creamy sauce. Each of them have their place in the sauce world!

    What else to put this glow sauce on? So glad you asked! This bright and herby sauce was made to breathe some life back into your salads, but is ready to add oomph to nearly anything! Imagine this drizzled on chickpeas or tempeh, on a glow bowl, on roasted/steamed vegetables, over quinoa, brown rice or lentils, on lentil pasta with steamed veggies, etc. The flavor options become endless since this “anything” sauce really can adapt to make anything taste good!

    All in all, prepping a simple sauce that’s versatile will keep meals from getting boring and worst of all, keep them from getting dry and flavorless.

    Bland be gone! ‘5-Minute Anything Glow Sauce’ for the win.

    Not to mention, it’s a very forgiving recipe. Feel free to use what you have on hand. Swap lemon juice for vinegar or swap dried herbs instead of fresh. Make it spicy by adding red pepper flakes. It can be anything you want it to be! Use avocado oil or grapeseed oil, if you don’t have olive oil. Also, I love this tahini.

    I stored mine in a glass weck jar. I’m obsessed with weck jars for meal prep!!

      Wow, what a unique and creamy sauce! I had some parsley that was looking sad so I seized the opportunity and made this dressing. It tastes so vibrant and bright and will go great on my kale salad today! thanks for the recipe!

    Did your hair stop growing? Mine was stuck at the Did your hair stop growing?

Mine was stuck at the same length too for a while. But now I know your scalp is an extension of your skin and needs to be nourished and taken care of in order for healthy hair growth. The scalp ages 6x faster than the skin on your face 🤯 it needs love and care, too. Especially if you want length and strength.

My hair oil is unique and made of different botanicals, antioxidants, omegas and nutrients your scalp is craving. If your hair is struggling but you eat healthy, you may want to consider a hair oil to fill in the gaps. I’ve noticed new thickness and growth from it being nourished and fed nutrients from within. The SHINE is the most surprising part!!! It’s honestly jaw-dropping. It keeps getting better because it’s a LIQUID VITAMIN for all hair types.
 
Figuring out the right custom plan for you is key. I want to help customize a plan for you because everyone should experience these results.

And definitely my dream come true to be home with her all day. Never missing her much needed cuddle moments. I need her just as much as she needs me. Nothing else matters, really. I don’t need to be a girl boss or CEO of a company that separates us all day. I’m a mommy first and I sell shampoo, second. It’s actually the best of both worlds because I get to raise her and also have an income of my own.

If you’ve been yearning for something like this, there’s no better time. The holidays are coming!!!

    Are you chasing the new shiny object? There will Are you chasing the new shiny object?

There will always be some new trend or way to make money online. But are they sustainable? Or just a way to make a quick buck? One thing we all have in common is we all want to build a long-term sustainable business to make an income from home! We all sell shampoo, we all want different things for our families and we all took a leap of faith in starting our beauty businesses. And we all started somewhere. Instead of chasing the newest ways to make money, it’s so much more authentic to share something you love and use daily 👄🧴🫧🧖‍♀️

    A DREAM ☁️☁️ You guys. This is a dream co A DREAM ☁️☁️

You guys. This is a dream come true. Getting better hair (completely frizz free 🙂) and making an income. I love what I do and the best part is it’s all from my phone and with my baby by my side. No daycare or nanny, it’s all from my phone. Now you do have to put in time and work for it to work, but it’s such a blessing. I’m so grateful every single day.

If you love beauty products and have a go-getter attitude, we need to talk!! I want to teach you how to do this.
