Step 1: Prepare to wash and cut your vegetables - Purple Cauliflower, Broccoli Florets, and Green Beans. Cut into your desired size, I cut separately and put in their own containers for custom seasoning.

Step 2: Wash, peel and prepare to cut your white and red pearl onions into your desired size. I season with Raw Pink Himalayan Salt and set aside cut onions in container.

Step 3: Season to taste liking whatever flavor combinations you desire in your separate containers of Purple Cauliflower, Green Beans, and Broccoli Floret and toss gently or stir to evenly coat vegetables with seasoning mix. I seasoned my Purple Cauliflower with Organic Red Raspberry Powder, Organic Garlic Powder – Green Beans with Organic Bladderwrack Powder and Organic Black Pepper Powder – Broccoli Florets with Organic Lemon Powder, Organic Black Pepper Powder, and Organic Garlic Powder.

*Using my baking method – then continue to bake method Step 6

Step 4: Lightly coat pan or pans with Organic Avocado or Grapeseed Oil evenly, add vegetables to their respective pans, toss and bake at 300° for 12-15 minutes or to desired crispiness for the vegetables.

*Using my softly sautéed method –

Step 4: Gather your desired cooking pans, you can cook all three at the same time or one at a time, whatever is most comfortable for you in your kitchen. Prepare your pans with the Organic Avocado or Grapeseed Oil by feeding the pan a circle motion of oil and tossing your pan to evenly coat the oil in the pan. Toss in a handful of your cut onions to each pan, evenly distribute, and let simmer on med heat for 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 5: Toss in your seasoned Purple Cauliflower, seasoned Green Beans, and seasoned Broccoli Floret into their respective heated pans and stir gently and evenly spread to cook in the pan, stir occasionally for 3-5 minutes depending on desired vegetable crispy.

*If using my baking method

Step 6: Take your pans out of the oven and place your finished baked vegetables into their previous respective containers, lightly sprinkle with Raw Pink Himalayan Salt, and set aside.

*If using my softly sautéed method

Step 6: Place your finished softly sautéed Purple Cauliflower, Green Beans, and Broccoli Florets into their previous respective container, lightly sprinkle with Raw Pink Himalayan Salt, and set aside.

Step 7: In a small bowl pour 1/3 cup of Organic Avocado Oil or Grapeseed Oil, 1 tsp of Organic Basil Leaves, and 2 tsp of Organic Garlic Powder. Mix and set to the side. Preheat your oven and set to 420 degrees.

Step 8: Grab your Circle Bread and slice inward about ½ inch a circle all the way around the top of the Circle bread. You will have made a full 360 turn of the bread while slicing. Pull the sliced bread part from the top and remove the remainder of the bread on the inside of the Circle Bread. This will create the bread bowl once all the insides have been removed.

Step 9: Grab your oil mixture that you made in Step 7 and begin to oil your Circle Bread bowl. Evenly oil and coat the outside, evenly oil and coat the inside. Put oiled Circle Bread inside the oven directly on the rack or in a pan open circle side down and bake for 8-10 minutes or until desired crispiness.

Step 10: Take Toasted Circle Bread bowl out of the oven and place on a plate to cool for 1 minute.

Step 11: Place your sautéed or baked Purple Cauliflower, Green Beans, and Broccoli Florets into the warm toasted Circle Bread bowl. Garnish with Organic Raw Hemp Hearts and your remainder chopped pearl onions.

We had an amazing bonding experience in Cancun and I'm happy we got that week together! Remember I surprised you with floor seats to Stevie Wonder's Keys of Life Tour!? You had such a great time lighting up with every song! Happy I have that memory! I think and smile of the story you told me of being pregnant with me and dancing your butt off at a MC Hammer concert! You were life and the light you brought to any room will never be replaced but I'm happy to know I'm a piece of you. That smile! You inspire me and encourage me everyday! You are driving inspiration behind my natural wellness brand, business, and birthright missions to the people! An amazing mother and I couldn't think of anybody else doing a better job with an ambitious girl like me and I think I came out really good! I use many of the tools, wisdom and knowledge, resources you passed down to me and I love that!

Future Freedom Friday 3.10.2017 0

Future Freedom Friday 3.10.2017

We have the freedom to set up our future and our past doesn’t hinder a thing.

What an amazing feeling to have the freedom to do something. It’s an action we take for granted sometimes and goes for those things we think are a big deal and for the things we think aren’t. Taking for granted that we may wake up a morning and someone else in the world doesn’t, we overlook that and jump on the complaint bus and go for a ride or two or three if we’re feeling particularly hot about the topic. We have the freedom to learn, talk, walk, drive, eat or breathe on our own and that’s a pretty big deal. Little or big we have the freedom to give the energy to what we choose and it shapes our future and shapes our wellness ether.

“Our stable future depends on the solutions we choose during our destined freedom roadblocks.” – Giovanni Gilmore

Our creator has the master plan, has never set us up or will for failure, and we must be wise to the future callings we could have upon our life journey. What is in our cards will always be in our cards and the things that come cross are paths along the way are all intertwined to perfect that moment in time. Your moments in the environment. You could be the light and spark to someone’s life who may need help being pulled out of a dark place and seeing their full worth or you could be the survivor support to someone who went thru a similar situation. Don’t ever count out how your freedom could positively enhance your future or someone you care about and the wellness goals you have set to unfold.

First day to reclaim your freedom for future days to make better days in your best way is now. Let’s do this and there’s nothing to fear because you have the freedom and support to grab anything you set your eyes on. Maybe you want to be more knowledgeable, you want to be more active, you want to live and break something negative that runs in your family, or you want to be more conscious. Whatever you are set on know that you are free to go get it.

You could walk in your purpose and donate a million dollars to your hometown neighborhood schools, you can start your own business to fill a need and help other people at the same time, you can be the first in your neighborhood to achieve something not yet achieved or you could have two consecutive #1 albums on the Billboard Charts. The possibilities are endless for your future and the freedom is yours! Take advantage and don’t take for granted your amazing future because you have light to shine!

Tag Yourself and Gigi Amanata Wellness using the hashtag #FreeFlyAndFavoredFuture for a feature on our Instagram or Twitter or Facebook page! Show me what steps your taking to set a firm foundation for your future wellness steps and how this Freedom Friday your future is worth it all. You could be the encouragement another beautiful soul on their wellness journey needs. 

I love having the freedom to set my wellness future up right with things I can incorporate into any of my favorite recipes, fruits, vegetables, and meal plans like some of my favorites Organic Moringa Leaf Powder, Organic Lemon Powder, Organic Apple Powder, and Organic Raw Cacao Powder! Having the power in natural powders to get creative as I want and still be wholesome and beneficially packed with what my body needs is the perfect balance. You can set up your future for great things too in the Gigi Amanata Wellness Shop and pick your own combinations that your taste buds and wellness will enjoy and benefit from! Explore my wellness shop today designed just for you and be inspired to take back your wellness freedom naturally!

You Are Blessed,

Mindful Make It Monday 3.6.2017 0

Mindful Make It Monday 3.6.2017

The mind must approach the scene in full concentration to observe the team.

Being mindful can be a great battlefield partner to your wellness journey and give you needed self-support. Don't count out the big role your mind and mindset plays. It’s a key part in you ascending to any goal you set. You must approach the situation with some conviction in your mind and heart that it’s yours.

"Your powerful mind has to be able to have the opportunity to equip it with the things that will help build you up to make it. Don't limit yourself." - Giovanni Gilmore

Do you believe in your dreams enough to make them happen? Do you have the strength to take the discipline approach to make your goals come true? I know you do and I can’t wait to see your result. Plan things for the betterment of yourself and people around you for the long-term. Be mindful of the goals you want to reach in your wellness journey and be open in your approaches to that.

To make things happen you must be watchful of things that could hinder your success on the way. It could be something so small or it could be something very big; just always stay vigilant. Remember everybody doesn’t want to see you win and reach the level you were born to reach so keep an observant eye and protect your atmospheric energies. I ask God to protect and guide your step and help you be mindful at all times as you walk the territory you’re used to and as you make it in new territory.

Mindful maneuvers make mighty moves happen!

Tag Yourself and Gigi Amanata Wellness for a feature on our Instagram, Twitter, or Facebook page using the hashtag #TodayIMakeItHappen and let me know being mindful in your wellness will help you Make It Happen for all of March! Make It Happen March Madness!

You can make a clear and mindful movement for your wellness journey this March easily in the Gigi Amanata Wellness Shop where you can introduce new things like Organic Apple Powder, Organic Noni Fruit Powder, Organic Clove Powder or stick to what you’re used to in Organic Ginger Root Powder, or Organic Onion Powder. Gigi Amanata Wellness is always here to help you stay positive in your mindset and support you in living the healthiest life possible!

You Are Blessed,
