PRETTY SKIN BITES

Simple, powerful and delicious. We love this recipe for skin-perfecting superfood bites from one of our fave glowy wellness pros, Summer Sanders (raid her medicine cabinet here). Packed with collagen, vitamins and some seriously beautifying herbs, these bites make perfect beach day nibbles, hiking fuel or a multi-tasking desk snack.

The ingredients in these yummy little bites are going to boost your collagen production and load you up on important nutrients like vitamin C to keep your skin clear and glowing. This isn’t a vegan recipe, but you can easily sub a few ingredients to make them fit any diet type. I use collagen in many of my recipes because the benefits have been outstanding for me. I’ve seen a huge difference in the quality of my skin since adding collagen into my life. If you lean vegan you can add tocotrienols, a great vitamin E source from brown rice that will give you added glow factor. These bites are safe for kiddos too! My little guy has been eating them up.

If some of these ingredients seem foreign, that’s okay! This recipe gives you the opportunity to play with some new and exciting superfoods and tonic herbs. There are many online resources for purchasing and learning all about these ingredients. I love Sun Potion for many of these items.
