I can’t believe it is another weekend already! Thanksgiving of 2014, is BEHIND us now.. Where, and how fast the time goes, is just plain CRAZY! This year, ( yet another) where I was not in the States to celebrate Thanksgiving the “traditional” way. I’m currently “downunda” so- to us, it was just another Thursday..;-) I’m now completing my 2nd week of this WOE..my days always start out with the BPC. (YUM!! BULLET PROOF COFFEE!) which keeps me COMPLETELY satiated until I DECIDE, that I need to meet my “macros” for the day to stay in Ketosis. Today’s post is MY recipe for Bullet Proof Coffee, as there is a basic that you follow to get your fat in for the day, which a lot of people can’t FATHOM grass fed butter in their coffee, much less coconut oil, and Heavy Whipping cream?? WHAT what!!?? ..lemme tell you it is AWESOME.. and here goes..( MY version) which is FRIGGIN AWESOME.. don’t hate till you just TRY it..<3

Cori’s unique BPC

* 3 oz fresh brewed Italian coffee ( I like the espresso type! )
* 1 TBS salted grass fed (organic) butter- –people use “kerrygold” stateside, we don’t have that brand here in Oz..
* 1 TBS organic unrefined coconut oil
* 2 TBS organic coconut cream (FULL FAT)
* 1-2 pkts truvia ( to your taste)
* dash(es) Vanilla extract
* dash(es) cinnamon
* dash(es) are you ready?/ TURMERIC..(YUP)
* dash(es) Pink Himalayan rock salt ( YUP, again)

A lot of people use the stick blender to make it all frothy, ..me, I just use a fork and stir really well 😉

THIS HAS THE MOST rich, unique taste with the blend of oils, as well as the cinnamon, coconut and turmeric.. these ingredients listed above, are ALL major staples for me ( and most anyone following the Ketogenic WOE) Especially in the past 2 weeks, and- for good reason ! Try it, let me know if YOu have any variations 😉

I’m just doing my thing, keepin calm, and Keto’in on.. with AMAZING results after just 2 weeks.. which I am documenting, and will start an entire new blog about my Keto Journey 😉 LOOK FOR IT ..

Until next week.. Have an AWESOME weekend, and ENJOY yourself!

Namaste’
