Last month, my grade school BFF Ortrud sent me a box of Holy Carabao Clean Eats Box as her birthday gift to me. That’s what friends are for, they push each other to be better. And I guess, this is her way of telling me it’s time to live a an “even” healthier life haha…
So much goodies in Holy Carabao’s Clean Eats Box 🙂
This box just came in time, because Holy Carabao and Vitamix recently hosted an online contest wherein you get a chance to bring home a Vitamix blender!
Are you up for the challenge?
What is the #7dayscleaneat challenge?
Taken from their website: Holy Carabao partnered up with Vitamix Philippines and created the #7DaysCleanEats challenge for people resolved to start the year cleaner and healthier by ordering our Clean Eats Harvest Box (we do home deliveries to most of Metro Manila and pick ups at our farmer’s market store in Makati), and taking the 7-day photo challenge – and in the process of kickstarting your choice to live a healthier life, the chance to win a high-powered blender from Vitamix!
So what does it mean to eat clean? Eating clean is a good way to refresh your eating habits: it’s about eating more of the best and healthiest options in each of the food groups—and eating less of the not-so-healthy ones. That means embracing whole foods like vegetables, fruits and whole grains, plus healthy proteins and fats. It also means cutting back on refined grains, added sugars, salt and unhealthy fats. And since you don’t have to count calories or give up whole food groups, it’s easy to follow.
The Clean Eats Harvest Box comes with an assortment of fruit, vegetables, nuts, and spices to help you get as creative as you can when it comes to putting together your clean eats, and it doesn’t all have to be salads! The great thing about it is that they’re all sooooo easy to make, and delicious, too! Here are their recipes taken from the website, food shots taken by yours truly 🙂
Spiced Carrot Soup, my personal fave 🙂 Now, I know how to make creamy soup without dairy – yum!
Ingredients:
Beetle Juice, for a refreshing and pretty drink!
Ingredients:
Guyabano juice – I grew up having guyabano as my favorite juide, so I was so happy to see this in the Clean Eats Box 🙂
Ingredients:
Yacon Juice – I tweaked this a bit since they ran out of passion fruit. So I included oranges instead. Still very good!
Ingredients:
Strawberry Banana Smoothie. Who knew you can drink pechay? and you can mask it with yummy sweet fruits like strawberry and banana?
Ingredients:
Kale Citrus Zinger – learned another way to mask greens with one of my faves, dalandan 🙂Â
Ingredients:
Last, but not the least, the Hot Tsokalate 🙂 Good thing Ortrud offered to let me road test the Vitamix blender using her ten-year-old Vitamix. Yes, Vitamix blenders have an 8-year-warranty, which means they are confident that their blenders will last you a lifetime 🙂
Our eldest son Jared is a pro at using the Vitamix blender. He has been helping out in the Vitakids booth at the annual Kiddopreneur.
Hot Tsokolate – I learned that I can include Virgin Coconut Oil in my favorite morning drink, too 😉
Ingredients:
And there you have it 🙂 They’re all so easy to make, and delicious to drink.
Here’s our daughter LJ enjoying a hot cup of cocoa 🙂
Drinking these concoctions on a daily basis, I noticed a change in my body and how much better and faster my metabolism is now, which is actually good. This Holy Carabao’s Clean Eats Box does work, and it just takes one drink/recipe a day!
I am also sold with what Vitamix blender can do, and I’ll be posting more details about it in the next few weeks. Really, the Vitamix blender is one kitchen appliance every household should have. I gotta start saving for it! To know more about these two brands, follow them on IG at holycarabaofarm and vitamixphilippines.
