Grind Green Toasted Purp Bowl Recipe 

A recipe formulated by Founder Giovanni Gilmore in the Gigi Amanata Wellness Kitchen

Ingredients

Organic Purple Cauliflower
Organic Broccoli Florets
Organic Green Beans
Pearl Red Onions
Pearl White Onions
Circle Bread
Organic Dried Basil Leaves
Organic Avocado Oil or Organic Grapeseed Oil

 

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 PowderOrganic 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.

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.

Flight Freedom Friday 2.24.2017

Fly with favor and flow into your future.

I hope all my beautiful souls growing in their wellness had a week of productivity & renewal!

 

Frazzled, frizzy in the mind, and flustered. What a total fumble that could feel like and we’ve all been there and had that type of moment. I love being able to stop, refocus, and re-plan to execute a new flight plan just when we thought the original plan may be taking a nosedive. This could be in a decision made in our wellness or even in our life journey, but we have the power of flight and we are never given more than we can bear. We can get a second wind even after a false start, slow start, or even no start at all. It is up to us to make that freedom step forward


“The flight plan of life is never always on course so keep your good positive light near for the dark turbulent times.” – Giovanni Gilmore

 

Have you ever fought the flight due to fear instead of just letting it flow? How about let fear fly out the window and smile as you release and let go of a big thing that can hold us back. We weren’t made to be fearful so don’t hold onto anything that isn’t lifting you and helping remove that fear. Don’t let anyone stop you from having the landing you deserve.

Stay the positive course to set the vibes of what you want in your atmosphere that will help you on your journey and seasons in life. The benefits you’ll reap of successful mission outlooks and ways to overcome the good and bad things you may experience will keep your gratitude. Your freedom flow is determined on your mindset and attitude to the flight plans.

 

Tag Yourself and Gigi Amanata Wellness using the hashtag #FreeFlyAndFavored for a feature on our Instagram or Twitter or Facebook page! Show me how you glided thru your week and how this Freedom Friday your flight will have a beautiful landing! You could be the encouragement another beautiful soul on their wellness journey needs.
The Gigi Amanata Wellness Shop has all you need for a top flight type of week. Make your favorite raw recipes, stir-fry rice recipes, and pasta recipes receive flying colors from your family with Organic Garlic Powder, Organic Black Pepper Powder, and Organic Ginger Root Powder or make a tasty dessert favorite take it up a notch by infusing it with a superfood powder like Organic Moringa Powder, Organic Raw Cacao Powder, Organic Pomegranate Juice Powder or something revitalizing and balancing for the body like Organic Lemon Powder or Organic Apple Powder. Watch your wellness begin to fly higher and truly appreciate the extra NON-GMO powder nutritional love you’re showing your temple in your recipes!

Transcribing my thanks for they are only mine to record and give.


When we transcribe we are putting our thoughts and ideas into written form. To transcribe the things we are thankful for we can control the direction of our mind perception and the way we approach things. I love writing my thanks and things out as it’s a way to solidify a thought or idea and a great helpful reminder to speak something into existence. Ready, set, go. Writing out our thanks and also things we will be thankful in the future will set the foundation for tangibility.


“Arrange your thanks like a piece of music, different instruments will be used to help transcribe all your emotions.” – Giovanni Gilmore


Try writing out your goals for your wellness and things you want for your longevity in your lifestyle? Release it out of your mind, set it from an idea to an obtainable reality on actual paper or digital paper. It could be one word, bullet points or it could even be paragraphs. It could be mantras that motivate you, recipes you think of and want to try, habits you want to change. You decide how to arrange your thankfulness for your journey’s foundation and what you are building. This will be the start to a plan you have for how you will reach what you have set out to do and when you will.


Transcribing my tasks, goals, birthright dreams, and anything I need or want to do for my journey and wellness is a driver for me. It’s a sealer in that it easily gets me motivated keeping me on my P’s & Q’s. You will be able to do this to for yourself knowing what destinations you want in your life. Find out your motivators that keep you thankful and lift those up in your daily wellness steps as one of your accountability partners. Your steps will get stronger on this healthy lifestyle journey as your motivators will have more positive sway in setting your atmospheric energies for transcribing thankfulness. I can’t wait to hear the greatness you will transcribe from goals, songs & mantras of thanks, creative ideas to reality, prayers and praises, whatever it is all up to you and your thanks expression!


Tag Yourself and Gigi Amanata Wellness for a feature on our Instagram page or Twitter page using the hashtag #ThankfulTranscriber and let me know how you will transcribe your thanks and forget about what distracts you from being thankful with life tools in your wellness this week!


This week I have been doing a lot of liquid love and Organic Wheatgrass Juice Powder has been my green love quencher for the week. It has me feeling rejuvenated and energized and I know I’m getting the nutrient intake my body needs to keep my body alkaline-rich. In the Gigi Amanata Wellness Shop you can easily incorporate many natural organic NON-GMO vegetable, fruit, sea vegetables, roots, and pepper powders to help with the recording of a new wellness regime or homemade creation recipe of your favorite dishes.
