I’m always looking for more great ways to eat healthier as a family. Today’s market of organic foods and super foods from brands such as Numi Tea and Nutiva make the whole difference for me.

Want to play it up a little? Here’s a fun recipe to try:
- 1 Numi Tea Moroccan Mint tea bag
- Pulp and juice from half a lemon
- 1 T honey
- 2 cups water
- 1 cup ice
- Fresh mint leaves
- Two slices of lemon
- Boil your water. Add the tea bag and allow it to steep for ten minutes to get out all the flavor.
- Remove the tea bag. Mix in the lemon juice and honey. Stir until the honey is totally dissolved.
- Pour ice into two tall 16 oz. cups. Pour the tea over it.
- Garnish with fresh mint leaves and a slice of lemon.
For a while, I’ve been hearing about chia seeds as a great super food, but I hadn’t actually used them until recently. Chia sees, for those of you who haven’t heard of them, is a little seed that look similar to sesame that is loaded with good stuff.
“A traditional South American crop, chia seed (Latin name Salvia hispanica L.) has been used for thousands of years. In fact, archaeological evidence indicates that humans have been using chia as early as 3500 BCE!
Making a comeback in healthy diets, these super seeds are an excellent source of essential minerals such as phosphorous, manganese, calcium, sodium and potassium.”
It is loaded with antioxidants, potassium, magnesium, and calcium, and is also a great source of protein and fiber! I’m always looking for more ways to get my toddler to eat more proteins, and adding some chia seeds to his foods really helps! It practically dissolves into the foods so he doesn’t really notice it. Sneaky of me, isn’t it?
Nutiva chia seeds are:
- Certified USDA Organic
- Non GMO
- Certified gluten free
- Certified Kosher by the OU
- Full of great ideas on the package
- Available in black, white, and ground

I’m not really a fan of tea but sometimes I drink it for the sake of my health. Thank you for the recipe. What do you think are the other fruits that can blend well with mint? I want to try different flavors. 🙂
