Introducing Guest Contributor Marley Jamason! She Has a Mega Healthy & Delicious Recipe to Share.
Welcome
back to my sensual food blog everyone! Also just like I promised in my last
post I have a guest contributor for today, her name is Marley Jamason. Marley
and I found each other through a group we both belong to on social media and we
have been communicating off and on for several months now, shortly after
meeting one another we both realized that we have similar food restrictions. I
asked Marley to be a guest contributor after seeing her post a photo of this
beautiful dish one day on her social media page and it is a virtual feast for
the eyes and the taste buds plus I will also add that I have been very
impressed with Marley’s knowledge of health and nutrition.
So now
let me turn it over to Marley:
Hi! My

healed from a severe chronic illness that comprised of pain, fatigue, and
depression (nutrition, holistic modalities, and empowering mindset are key!)
and I now wish to help others achieve their wellness goals. I specialize in
providing 100% personalized sessions for my clients by combining Reiki,
Intuitive Insight, and Compassionate Coaching. I also offer Akashic Records
readings for those who want deep soul-level insight and healing.
Here is
how you can reach me:
Today I
am sharing one of my absolute favorite breakfast recipes! This recipe is a
delightfully sweet breakfast, without added sugar. This dish is filling and
will help you start your day off with a sustainable boost of energy!
This
recipe features butternut squash, which is jam-packed with nutritional
benefits, including carotenoids (heart and eye health, protect against breast
cancer, etc.) and vitamins A, E, K, B-complex, potassium, magnesium, and so
many others (help with immunity and nervous system well-being). Butternut
squash can ease inflammation (may help decrease asthma and fibromyalgia
symptoms).
I love
to add an apple into the mix because it sweetens it just a bit. Apples are
especially great because they feature anti-inflammatory properties that can
contribute to pain. Apples can also help keep things "flowing"
smoothly in the intestines!
Adding a
small amount of walnuts, which are a healthy fat source (omega-3 fatty acid!),
helps our bodies absorb the nutrients more readily!
Then
topping the squash with berries adds a powerful bunch of healing antioxidants
to the mix!
This
recipe truly is a winner! I hope you enjoy it! (And in case you don't have
butternut squash or don't want to go through the steps of cooking the squash, I
have provided an alternative recipe featuring sweet potatoes!)

them on a baking pan and bake in oven at 400F for 5 minutes
3. Lightly blend butternut squash and
apple in blender. Some texture is good, so no need to puree it.

walnuts.

Alternative
recipe using sweet potato:

*Note from Lady L - I tried this recipe with the sweet potatoes after cooking the sweet potatoes I added a little bit of extra virgin olive oil on top plus I added a couple of tablespoons of coconut palm sugar and steamed apple chunks to the berries and walnut mixture (one of the reasons why I added the palm sugar is because I had a blackberry and raspberry combination so I needed to counter balance a little bit of the tartness of the berries). I do have to say that this recipe is sensually delicious and perfect for the Passionate Foods for Sensual Souls Blog recipe collection!
Until next time!
