ℝ𝕚𝕔𝕖 𝕓𝕠𝕨𝕝 𝕒𝕟𝕪𝕠𝕟𝕖?!?! 🥑🥒🍚

After having left over rice for dinner, rice bowl for lunch is a given 😂 plus the avocado needed to get eaten. Zucchini is pumping in the garden and the chickens are laying so I made zucchini and lemon balm fritters.

Fritter Recipe:
-1 large zucchini
-small handful lemon balm
-1 egg
-1/4 cup flour
-1 tsp salt
-pepper & garlic to taste
-oil

• grate the zucchini into a strainer and add salt. Let sit for a few minutes in order for the salt to draw out the water. After, squeeze the liquid out with cheese cloth or your hands.
• mix in the egg, flour, lemon balm (chopped), and seasonings to the zucchini.
• add a few Tbsp of oil (I use olive) to a pan. Add the zucchini to the pan once it’s hot. Cook for a few minutes of each side until crispy. Sprinkle with a little salt once taken out of the pan.
• for sweet chili sauce mix: 1 tbsp sriracha hot sauce, 1 tbsp maple syrup, 1/2 tbsp liquid aminos, and 1/2 tbsp apple cider vinegar. Adding more or less of each ingredient depending on how you like it. If the flavor is to strong add a little water to taste.

This bowl was so good and did not take much time at all!
Happy Wednesday everyone, we are already half way into the week!
Love,
Untamed Medicine 💚

We recently got back from a road trip to Colorado,

We recently got back from a road trip to Colorado, where my mom @unitedplantsavers was checking in on the osha population. Osha, aka bear root, is a medicinal plant know to be very antiviral. This plant has been know to be used for a VERY long time. It is on the endangered plants list and is something we are looking out for. The past few years now my mom has been going up into the high altitudes to check on the populations making sure it does not go extinct. To our surprise with all of this extreme heat and drastic weather change the osha population is actually growing. Happy and exciting to see, is this really a surprise?... the same year we experience a rise in this powerful antiviral herb, the world is also experiencing a global pandemic - a viral pandemic! We have never needed our antivirals as much as we do now.

We wanted to bring this to people’s attention, because not everything is so mysterious. Though the world is full of mystery, some things are put right in front of us and we just don’t know what to make of it.

Piled high with greens, avocado mash, and siracha,

Piled high with greens, avocado mash, and siracha, these fried corn tortillas are easy and a delish quick dinner! I fried 4 corn tortillas in a little oil, topped with mashed avocado (mixed with onions, tomatoes, and spices), and a little siracha. You can add whatever you would like on top, like kimchi, beans, lentils, or pickled veggies...the possibilities are endless! Have fun!

Easy recipe people?!? We got you 😊🥑 I know

Easy recipe people?!? We got you 😊🥑

I know avocado toast has been a trend for a bit now but there is so much more you can do to make this an actual meal.

This morning we had fresh sourdough from a local co-op, avocados that were getting very ripe, and left over roasted veggies from dinner the night before. We roasted squash, eggplant, beets, and peppers. You can switch this up to veggies you like!

Get inspired with endless possibilities!

Happy cooking 😋

::::::Tibetan prayer flags::::::
They are hung out in the wind to send healing prayers into the universe. As the wind moves the flags, the prayers are spread by many many times.

We are in a time of distress, a time we do not know how to deal in. These prayer flags send healing energy to the Earth and those that inhabit it, helping us to persist through these tough times.

Freaking LOVE tomato season!!!! 🍅 Anyone else

Freaking LOVE tomato season!!!! 🍅

Anyone else?!? 🙋🏻‍♀️

There is nothing like a tomato fresh from the garden. Just slice and add some salt & pepper. Or one of my FAVORITES:
• slice tomato and toast a piece of bread (sourdough preferably 😋)
• spread a mayo of choice (vegan or regular) and add your tomatoes
• top with some seasoning
• ENJOY!!!
Happy Wednesday
Love,
Untamed Medicine 💛

Our second natural hair care routine is up.
🍃
We love learning about what natural alternatives people like to use for their hair. We decided to share how we take care of our hair if you are at all interested visit the link in our bio.
🍃
We know that these two routines will definitely not work for everyone because all our hair is different. So we do not expect you to adapt everything we say into your hair care routine. We hope that you possibly learn something new or try something out that may work for you.
🍃
What is your hair care routine?!?
Leave a comment below, and have an incredible rest of your day 🥰

You have no idea how excited I was to get this as an early birthday present from @unitedplantsavers 🥰
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
This box was full of so many amazing products from @borealfolk @drenchedinsilver and @ffrench .
I have been following @borealfolk for quite awhile now because of their incredible products, and I have yet to try them... until now! They make outstanding herbal products that use sustainably harvested ingredients and of the highest quality. I had only just been following @drenchedinsilver and @ffrench since this box was released. @drenchedinsilver appears to be doing amazing work with planting trees and has gorgeous jewelry. @ffrench is doing beautiful work as well in making paint with natural material 😍
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
It is so important, especially now, to be supporting small businesses where you can. The small, local, sustainable businesses are so much more important.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Thank you @borealfolk @drenchedinsilver and @ffrench for making this lovely box!!! I am in love 🥰

Full moon in Aquarius! 🌕 Last night was the fir

Full moon in Aquarius! 🌕
Last night was the first full moon of August.

I think even if you are not into the moon or astrology you can admit to feeling a sense of calm (or energy) and relief when a shinning moon is present. It is pretty incredible to have something that keeps you grounded. When all is going crazy, everything is changing, and nothing feels right the moon will be there to ground us, or lift us up.

It is there even when we do not think we need it. I can not tell you how many times I have looked up at the sky, day or night, to see the moon and reconnect. To take a minute to take a breath.

The moon brings balance. Even though the phases change around the world we know that things come full circle. Yes things will change but if the moon stayed in one phase the sky would be too light or dark.

Happy August everyone! Summer is seriously in full bloom now.
Love,
Untamed Medicine

I am not going to say dislike... but I am surprised with my answer to the question of... “where can I get affordable natural product?”

The other day, I found @davidsnaturaltoothpaste at @tjmaxx 🤯😳 We had gone in to go shopping for my grandma (I even told everyone to make sure I don’t buy anything when I am in there, as they sell a large amount of natural goods). Places like TJ Maxx put me into check with the fast fashion, plastic producing, non-eco friendly factors of our lives. I do not want to bash on TJMaxx because I have heard some things that they do are good, however, the company is not ultimately working in favor of the environment - you understand my point, not all stores are for the greater good. Though there are many things I want to buy, I know that the money I put out is not going to a good cause when I am purchasing them from store like TJMaxx. Over the past few years (because my grandma loves that place so much) I have seen TJMaxx grow in the amount of natural products they sell. I was blown away by what companies I recognized that are helping the planet. @davidsnaturaltoothpaste being one of them.

Some of us do not realize that when we buy products that are good quality it is not that we are paying more money than we should, it is that we are so used to not paying enough money for environmentally friendly products. We are also in a system in which we do not make enough money to pay for quality products.

In the end, I do not blame you for going to places like TJMaxx. I struggle with coming to a conclusion to this. I think that if a store (that is not the best for the environment) sells products that are doing good, you should support the store in that decision to sell a natural selection. If you can not afford to get the products straight from the source, please by all means go to somewhere you can get them and show that these eco-friendly products are in demand.

Make your $$$ count, spend it on what important!!!

Anyone else take a picture of their food before dousing it in hot sauce?!?! 😂 ✌︎︎
🄸🄽🄶🅁🄴🄳🄸🄴🄽🅃🅂:
• 1 box of rice noodles (more or less)
• 1 sweet potato
• 1 zucchini
• 2-4 cloves garlic
• some ginger
• handful of green beans
• 2 carrots
• 1 cucumber
SAUCE: nut butter (I use sunflower butter), garlic, water, miso, lemon juice, 1/2 of the sweet potato, liquid aminos, apple cider vinegar.
🆁🅴🅲🅸🅿︎🅴:
①. Bake a sweet potato
②. Make your rice noodles
③. Sauté zucchini, green beans, ginger and garlic.
④. Use a peeler to make long strips of carrot and cucumber.
⑤. Add all the sauce ingredients to the blender. I don’t have exact measurements so you can adjust it to your liking. I would start with maybe 1/4 cup nut butter, 1/4 cup water, and then 1-2 tbsp of the best of ingredients. Adding more if needed.
⑥. Add the sautéd veggies, carrots, cucumber, noodles, and sauce to a pot. Cube the rest of the sweet potato (that didn’t go in the sauce) and add to the pot.
⑦. Douse with hot sauce (if you’d like 😂)
⑧. 🇪 🇳 🇯 🇴 🇾 !

It felt SOOOOOO good to be home and have a meal from the garden after a long vacation!
🌱
It is so nice to have break to your everyday life and be able to go on vacation. But let’s face it... we do not typically eat the best on vacation.
🌱
There was basically nothing in the kitchen when we got home, but the garden was PUMPING.
🌱
Pretty much everything on the plate was from the garden (besides the rice and seasonings).
🌱
ℝ𝕖𝕔𝕚𝕡𝕖:
-rice: cook as usual

-zucchini: slice into thin slices and put in a pan with oil(I used coconut), salt, pepper, garlic powder. Put a lid over until softened. Take lid off and let cook until they start to caramelize.

-greens: I just threw whatever greens from the garden into a pan with some oil and salt. This included beet greens, chard, and kale. Sometimes the greens can be bitter so a little honey would be nice.

-pesto: basil, olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic. Put it all in a blender and add water until you get the consistency you like.
🌱
Enjoy!

Being an herbalist is about more than just giving

Being an herbalist is about more than just giving people plants to feel better...
🌼
yes that plays a big role, but you have to also be connected to the plants you use.
🌼
This year I have been going back to the beginning.
🌼
Learning the plants by growing them.
🌼
Learning how they look, smell, taste, feel.
🌼
Understanding the plant from its natural state.
🌼
To better understand it when making medicine with the plant.
🌼
A big plant I focused on growing was calendula!
🌼
I only grew a few plants (calendula, chamomile, borage, and fever few) to really dive into their properties.
🌼
I have used calendula for so long in its dry form to make medicine.
🌼
I never really knew what it looked like fresh or what the plant as a whole looked like.
🌼
Growing what you use give you a much better understanding to what it is.
🌼
Love,
Untamed Medicine 🌼
