What You Will Need for a Healthy & Quick Cinnamon Roll Cake

Organic Coconut Sugar

Organic Coconut Sugar

If you are eating clean, the first thing you want to get rid of is common white sugar. Organic coconut sugar is the perfect and best replacement.

No, it doesn’t taste like coconut so it will not make your food or coffee taste like coconut. It is delicious and has it’s own unique flavor that adds to any dish that needs a touch of sweetness.

It is also a sugar that has plenty of naturally occurring nutrients, and nutrients with your sugar is always a win/win.

Organic Plant Based Protein Powder

Organic Plant Based Protein

Not all protein powders are made the same, and you want a high quality protein powder to keep your diet clean.

This is by far my favorite protein powder. It is organic and plant based, so it’s super easy on the stomach.

The best part is that it tastes amazing, and you can’t make delicious dishes that call for protein powder without a fabulous protein powder!

A lot of protein powder dishes are going to take a lot of the flavor from your powder, so make sure you have a clean yet delicious organic protein powder like this one.
