  • DIY Bug Bite Balm!

    DIY Bug Bite Balm!

    Everyone loves summertime, from swimming in the pool, to going on hikes, and having lots of outdoor parties and barbecues. The one downside to being outside… getting bug bites! We tried this DIY Bug Bite Balm and we had to share with everyone! The “pulling” action from the activated charcoal helps remove the toxins from the stings and bites, while the soothing properties from the lavender essential oil help the inflammation and itching. Plus, the coconut oil and shea butter offer a nice anti-bacterial and rejuvenating effect (respectively).

    Ingredients

    3 Tablespoons Coconut Oil

    1 ½ Tablespoons Shea Butter

    15-21 Drops of Organic Lavender Essential Oil

    1 Tablespoon Activated Charcoal (grab some from our bulk section!)

    1 Reusable Container (we used U-Konserve’s Big Mini Stainless Steel Container)


    Method

    1. Melt down coconut oil and shea butter.

    2. Once fully melted, add essential oil and activated charcoal. Mix well!

    3. Carefully spoon the liquid into reusable container. Allow to rest for 2-3 hours.

    4. When needed, rub the balm on the affected area, allowing it to run into the skin. Place a bandage on top of the balm and allow it to work its magic before rinsing off later.

    NOTE: During extremely hot days, you want to make sure to keep your new bug bite balm in a cool spot so it doesn’t melt.

  • Have a Safe Summer with Boiron!

    Have a Safe Summer with Boiron!

    Your day at the beach doesn’t have to end in misery if you keep your first aid kit stocked with natural summer essentials from Boiron like Arnicare and Calendula medicines. These multi-purpose homeopathic products are available in easy-to-apply topical forms such as gel, cream, lotion or ointment. Arnicare works on muscle aches, stiffness and bruising, while Calendula helps heal cuts, scrapes, bug bites and minor burns and soothes irritated and sunburned skin.

    Calendula

    Whether you have small burns from the grill, outdoor firepit, or even just minor sunburn, calendula is what you need! Made from Calendula officinalis, a garden marigold, it can help moisturize and heal sensitive burned skin.

    Arnicare

    If you’re constantly on-the-go and doing some fun summer activities, make sure you keep arnicare in stock! Made from Arnica montana, a mountain daisy, it can help relieve bumps and bruises after a long day working in the garden, after a long hike in the woods, and even after playing some beach volleyball.


    Regardless of which products you use this summer, let us know! Leave us a note, email us, tag us on social media, or tell us in person! #basilbandwagoncares

  • Guilt-Free Brownies featuring PlantFusion!

    Guilt-Free Brownies featuring PlantFusion!

    For the chocolate-lovers out there, these brownies are not only the guilt-free treat we all look for but they’re also gluten-free! The fun thing about making brownies is that you can change up the recipe to include some other fun treats; like fruit, nuts, candy, cookies, or even your favorite supplements! In this recipe, we used two PlantFusion supplements for an added health benefit. The Chocolate PlantFusion Complete Protein not only is packed with 21g of plant-based proteins but it keeps you energized while building and repairing muscle (this would be the perfect treat for after your daily workout)! The Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder should be your go-to for building, hydrating, and protecting collagen. BONUS- the Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder is also featured in our Smoothie of the Month for July- our Strawberry-A-Go-Go!

    Ingredients

    1 Cup Almond Butter (we used our fresh almond butter from our bulk section!)

    1/2 Cup Maple Syrup

    1 Egg

    1 Tablespoon melted butter (you can also use MCT oil or liquid coconut oil)

    1 Scoop Chocolate PlantFusion Complete Protein

    1 Scoop Vanilla PlantFusion Complete Plant Collagen Builder

    1 Teaspoon Vanilla

    Pinch of Salt

    1/2 Cup Chocolate Chips

    1/2 Teaspoon Baking Soda


    Method

    1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F and spray a 9×11-inch baking dish with nonstick spray or olive oil.

    2. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients together and whisk until smooth.

    3. Spread batter into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes until fully cooked around the edges.

    4. Allow to cool for 20-30 minutes, even though it’s hard to wait!

    5. Cut into squares or fun shapes and enjoy!


    Before you enjoy your decadent guilt-free PlantFusion chocolate brownies, make sure you take a picture of your masterpiece! Post it on social media and tag your favorite local organic market, Basil Bandwagon Natural Market! #basilbandwagon #wellnessrecipe
