Winning Recipe for the BEST BRU Recipe

Last month Tavala had a contest asking people to submit their favorite recipe for using bru. No doubt it was a fun challenge for the Tavala staff to try new recipes each day… and congratulations to Jennifer Jaca, she WON and was awarded 3 bags of bru.

I probably should have submitted a couple of recipes I use including my favorite KETO FAT BOMB recipe, but I never got around to it.

You can see that at http://cs21.temp.domains/~workwjp2//recipe-for-the-best-keto-fat-bombs-ever/

Healthy bru Guilt-Free Cake (aka Texas Sheet Cake)

(also known as the Chocolate Lovers Dream Cake)

2 cups sugar, 1 tsp. baking soda, 1 tsp. vanilla, 1 cup butter, 4 Tbsp. bru , 1/2 cup buttermilk, 2 cups flour, 1 cup water, 2 eggs, 1/2 tsp. cinnamon.

Melt butter and bru (dark organic Cacao) together; add rest of ingredients and bake in a sheet pan or cookie pan for 25-30 minutes at 350 degrees.

Frosting:

3 Tbsp. bru, 6 Tbs. milk, 1 stuck butter, 2 C. powder sugar, 1 cup nuts (optional) Boil bru, Milk and Butter then add powdered sugar and nuts. Frost while hot.

Basically what I have discovered, if you LOVE chocolate you can use bru as an alternative chocolate flavor in any recipe. It increases the healthy benefits of dark organic chocolate (Cacao) and it will make it the highest anti-oxidant dessert on the planet.

So what the heck IS bru you may ask???

Lately, it seems that everyone from medical professionals to health gurus are touting the substantial health benefits of cacao, from natural mood elevation to lower blood pressure and improved digestion. Cacao has even been shown to slow the creation of fat cells.

With all these unbelievable health benefits, and many more, Tavala bru should seem like a no brainer. We recommend you drink at least one cup everyday, but more only gives you better results. Drink it in the morning, drink it throughout the day – you decide! It’s as easy as stirring one scoop into hot water – your daily helping of good health.

As for the taste and aroma, it’s like the best dark chocolate; enjoy it with your favorite sweetener or creamer, add it to your coffee, or drink it as is (hot or iced): natural, earthy, uplifting!

Directions for use: mix one scoop of Tavala bru with 8 oz of hot water. Stir and enjoy! More or less mix may be added for your personal taste.

Interested in purchasing bru? Go to www.DaveandJoy.com It is available only through a Tavala members website and will never be available on the shelves of a store. The cost is only $29.99.

Some people actually lose weight substituting fattening beverages with bru. They do say that dark cacoa helps slow the creation of fat cells. I doubt that the recipe above would be a way to lose weight but you’ll at least know your anti-oxidants are handled for the day.

Bon Appetite!

Recipe for the BEST Keto Fat Bombs Ever!

I was introduced to the KETO lifestyle several years ago and it blew my mind as it was 360 degrees different than what was educated on my entire life.

I grew up in the age of ‘fat phobia’ and was told that fat made you fat. Obviously there is great education on this subject that tells us it is the KIND of fat that makes a difference and actually that FAT is good for you. Thus, the Keto Diet Movement.

Several years ago a friend shared the BEST FAT BOMB recipe with me and today, I have fine-tuned it to make it even better- healthier and to include an anti-oxidant that will kick the butt of any other ‘chocolate’ on the market.

Ready? Here is the recipe from our friend April (and it’s a perfect time of the year to share.) The only thing I have added and upgraded on is the type of CHOCOLATE used in the original recipe. I now use BRU and highly suggest you do too.

Put this ‘mixture’ into decorative shaped tins or holiday ‘small muffin tin’ papers and you’ll SHOCK and excite everyone who tastes them. By the way, for added nutrition and a great healthy fat boost, you can even add a FAT BOMB to your morning coffee.

Here goes:

Peanut Butter Cup Fat Bombs
1/4 cup coconut butter, (or unsalted grass fed butter)
1/2 cup coconut oil,
1/2 cup organic creamy peanut butter or other nut butter
1/8 cup MCT oil
2 TBSP organic Bru (www.DaveandJoy.com) *
1/4 cup raw coconut flakes,
1-2 droppers of alcohol free stevia,
pink Himalayan sea salt.

If you do not have BRU you can also use a dark chocolate (unsweetened) powder or dark Cacao powder.

Melt a bit of coconut oil so it will mix well. You have to taste as you go to adjust as necessary.
Mini cupcake papers, we put a little dot of peanut butter (or nut butter) in each paper then topped with fat bomb mixture. Sprinkle a bit of the salt on top and refrigerate.

I have altered this original recipe when I don’t have coconut on hand and it is still healthy and delicious AND also even when I didn’t have nut butter. You can even alter the recipe by adding a drop or two of peppermint essential oil and have a real peppermint patty treat.

Enjoy and if you have questions email us at info@DaveandJoy.com or call 802-846-7530. P.S. Even my fat-phobic parents who were born in the 1930s and still believe fat is ‘bad’ LOVE these fat bombs. I just tell them that this is a healthy ‘chocolate snack’.

Most ingredients are available at your grocery or health food store….and you can certainly improvise. As for what we use, the BRU is only available through Tavala, www.DaveandJoy.com. A full bag that is organic cacao and will last a long time is only $29.99.

I’d love to know how your recipe turns out. For me, when I have any cravings I reach for a FAT BOMB as it helps satisfy any craving, gives me great nutrition and a healthy high anti0xidant snack. By the way did you know that FAT keeps you more satisfied than carbohydrates?

Share your pictures of your FAT BOMB creations. I’m sure they will look better than mine do….but heck, I am here for the nutrition!

Why Tamanu Organics Skin Care?

What makes Tamanu Organics different?

First it is a Daily Skin Care System for All Skin Types. Many products on the market are geared towards different age groups, different skin types, different genders but Tamanu Organics is an organic skin care system that is good for everyone!

What’s unique about the ingredient “Tamanu Oil”?

Our impact ingredient, Tamanu Oil, has been used traditionally as a local medicine. The sacred Tamanu trees are ancient and native to Vanuatu, where they grow abundantly along the beach shores. In fact, Tavala is the name of a village on the island of Vanuatu, where we source this incredible oil. The Tamanu nuts are harvested only twice a year and are left to cure naturally in the sun until they are collected and cold-pressed for their precious oil.

Science has shown that each drop of Tamanu Oil gently urges skin to rebuild and stimulates the growth of healthy, new skin tissue. This regenerative oil provides immediate relief to distressed skin and helps fight the body’s inflammatory responses. Tamanu Oil can reduce the appearance of eczema, acne, and renew damaged skin. It moisturizes, nourishes, and repairs the skin.

What is in the Tamanu Organics Daily Skin Care System?

The 4 part system includes a Gentle Cleanser, a Soothing Toner, a Comforting Creme and a Night Time Serum. As mentioned above, this system was designed for all skin types to gently cleanse, hydrate and replenish skin.

Using the healing power of Tamanu Oil and other important botanical ingredients, Tavala has created a masterpiece that works exceptionally well to produce beautiful and healthy skin. If you’d like a full ingredient list of each ingredient, including botanicals, please email us at info@DaveandJoy.com and we’ll send you the documentation. You’ll be impressed….it is so pure and healthy that is healthy enough to eat!

The kit comes in 2 sizes: A Full Tamanu Organics: $194.50 and a travel size Tamanu Organics Travel Kit: $119.99

How to stop binging during the holidays & lose weight without dieting: TRIM

It’s only a few days after Thanksgiving and yet I know many people are already having a difficult time controlling their appetite and cravings!

Granted, it is a time when we are tempted with more sweets and ‘holiday cheer’ than any other time of the year…. but you don’t have to throw your hands in the air out of despair- and tell yourself you’ll just diet in the New Year.

Would you like to hear a solution? This solution is so simple, easy and affordable that you may dismiss it, but it is for real. It is a daily drink (or capsule form) called Tavala TRIM.

TRIM is a proprietary blend that does several things…. simply add it to your daily regime. What does TRIM do? It….

  • Boosts the Metabolism
  • Suppresses the Appetite & Cravings
  • Gives you Energy & Focus
  • Helps you Lose Weight

First, you simply will eat less. You will not have cravings or want to over-eat. For me when I began TRIM I had to consciously remember to eat, as many times I simply did not want to. However, I knew that by skipping a meal, I would slow my metabolism down -so even if I didn’t feel like eating, I’d have a little something to keep the metabolism boosted.

The ENERGY is a welcome PLUS this time of the year when we are often busier than ever preparing for the holidays but also required to be very good at multi-tasking! The TRIM gave me – and will for you too, a BOOST in energy that was welcome. Having low energy to clean your house or workout? TAVALA TRIM will cure you of that. Many customer comment and laugh about how clean their house is now that they use TRIM.

I’ve been in the health/fitness and nutrition industry for many decades and have never seen a product that single handed does what TRIM does. For many who struggle with being over weight or having a difficult time controlling their weight, their appetite and cravings, TRIM is a solution.

Some people like to TRY a sample for only $9.99 (we ship it for free) before buying a 4 week, 28-day supply and for those people we suggest going to the website : www.TryOurSamples.com

However, MOST people we speak to who are passionate and desperate to drop weight NOW, decide to simply order TODAY.

Who is willing to wait for samples and then try them …and then order can take 1-2 weeks time….so the majority of people simply say YES, I am willing and anxious to experience TRIM and simply go to www.DaveandJoy.com and place their order.

Customer and members pay the SAME low price of only $64.99 for a 28-day supply.

How much weight will you lose in 28 days? It’s hard to say. We know people who drop 5-10 and even up to 15 pounds in a week. How much weight you need to lose, your age, how much you have dieted in your life, hormones etc. all come into play…but everyone- OK, perhaps 95% of our customers lose weight and feel GREAT using TRIM….and feel in control. In fact, many people who are now at their goal weight still take TRIM for the ENERGY & FOCUS!!!!

We are confident adding TRIM to your daily routine will help you in many areas, and that you will lose weight during the holidays….even if you are not ‘dieting’.

1 drink a day or 2 capsules a day!!! Easy Peesy!

Have Questions? We’d love to answer them. You can email us at info@DaveandJoy.com or call 802-846-7530. We have a full guide to assist you with getting the best results and will be your coaches, for free, if you buy product off our website. If you have high blood sugar and wish to add an additional product called CONTROL to the TRIM program you will address weight loss from all angles and also avoid the dreaded plateaus. Ask about CONTROL!

We also donate 5% of all new customer orders to WEA, and organization for women (Women’s Earth Alliance) http://womensearthalliance.org/
