by Dr. Kellyann
on Jul 19 2021
Hello, Summer!
Long days, warm breezes, and a bit of relaxation. (You are taking time to relax, right?!) Summer is the season where any excuse to lounge with a cool, refreshing drink is a good excuse.
Are you with me on this?
Over the years, I’ve put together some delicious summer drink recipes and I figured it would be helpful to group them all in one place for you. You can use this recipe roundup to host a Porch Party Summer Soiree with your friends and neighbors, or simply take time for yourself and a good book. (Or podcast!)
Dr. Kellyann’s Summer Drink Recipe Roundup
This roundup is a mix of cocktails and mocktails, with each recipe featuring at least one of my favorite health-boosting secret weapons. This way, you get a shot of detoxification and energy support along with your hydration… and chillaxation.
What’s more, these summer drinks are not only delicious, they’re easy on the eyes. (The Sunrise Smoothie is so pretty!) I have no doubt they'll dazzle your whole crew... even if your crew is just a party of one.
So… are you ready to drink up? Here are your recipes.
Non-Alcoholic Summer Drinks (aka Mocktails)
Sunrise Smoothie — This fruity two-layer smoothie combines my Orange Cream Collagen Cooler, fresh mango, and strawberries for a tropical flavor you’ll love.
Raspberry Sorbet — This one isn’t technically a drink, but who can pass up a bowl of delicious sorbet on a hot summer afternoon? Especially when it's made with my Orange Cream Collagen Cooler. No one, that’s who!
Raspberry Sorbet Smoothie — Same zingy taste as the Raspberry Sorbet, but in smoothie form.
Lemon Mojito Mocktail — Nothing says summer better than a cooling, citrus sip. And my twist on this minty favorite also refreshes and rejuvenates your skin with my beloved Lemon Sips.
Alcoholic Summer Drinks (aka Cocktails)
Bloody Mary — If you’re a fan of savory drinks, this spin on the classic Bloody Mary is for you. The secret ingredient? My signature Bone Broth, of course!
Sangria Lemonade — We both know it wouldn’t be summer without lemonade… or wine! This recipe features my Lemon Sips and your favorite white wine for the best of both worlds.
Don’t all these summer drink recipes sound delicious? I hope you discover at least one that calls your name and that you enjoy every last drop. Don’t forget to take time to enjoy every last drop of summer, too. Before you know it, we’ll be talking about pumpkin spice!

Vegetarian Potassium-Rich Broth
by Dr. Kellyann
on Apr 15 2021
Vegetarian Potassium-Rich BrothIf you are vegetarian you can lose weight on the Bone Broth Diet, but bone broth is replaced with a potassium-rich vegetable broth. Leafy greens, sweet potatoes, spinach, and zucchini are all potassium-rich vegetables that you can use to create a nourishing broth. Prep time: 20 minutes • Cook Time: 2 hours • Yield: 12 cups
Ingredients:
2 medium or 1 large sweet potato/yam, scrubbed and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 bunch Swiss chard, cut into 2-inch pieces including the stems, about 6 leaves
2 to 3 big handfuls spinach, about ½ to ¾ of one 5-ounce box/bag
3 medium zucchini, cubed into 2-inch pieces
2 stalks celery, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 to 3 plum tomatoes, quartered (optional)
1 medium onion or 1 leek, cut the onion into wedges; slice the white part of the leek in 2-inch pieces
½ bunch parsley
2 cloves garlic, smashed
2 to 3 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper or 8 whole peppercorns
2 bay leaves
1 or more tablespoons of coconut aminos (optional)
Directions: Wash all the vegetables well and put all ingredients except for the coconut aminos into a large kettle. Cover with 1 gallon of filtered or bottled water. Put on high heat and bring to a boil, immediately reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 2 hours. When done, let cool, strain, and optionally add coconut aminos, one tablespoon at a time to taste. Store broth in the refrigerator in glass jars or covered containers. It will stay fresh in the refrigerator for about 4 to 5 days. If you are not using immediately, freeze for up to 1 month.
Note: You can also cook in a slower cooker for about 8 hours on low. You can make half a recipe if you want a smaller amount.

Ingredients
1 tablespoon + 1 teaspoon coconut oil, melted
2 scallions, white and green parts, chopped
2 handfuls of fresh baby spinach, chopped (about 2 cups)
8 eggs
1/2 teaspoon Celtic or pink Himalayan salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg (optional)
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Brush 8 cups in a muffin pan with the melted coconut oil.
Divide the scallions and spinach among the cups. The spinach will likely pop up over the top of the cups until you add the eggs. Crack 1 egg into each cup. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and a dash of nutmeg, if using. Alternatively, if you want scrambled eggs, whisk the eggs together in a bowl along with the salt, pepper, and nutmeg, if using, before pouring into the cups.
Bake for about 20 minutes for scrambled eggs or for 23 to 25 minutes for eggs with soft yolks. Remove from the pan and serve.
Notes:
Nutmeg is a great accent for eggs and spinach.
Serve with hot sauce or any of the Bone Broth Diet salsas.
These cups can be made ahead and refrigerated.
Variations:
Add a handful of sliced mushrooms.
Brown 1/2 pound lean ground beef, drain well, and divide among the egg cups before baking.
Sprinkle a dash of smoked paprika in each cup for a smoky flavor.
Add a pinch of your favorite herbs or garlic powder.
Stir in a dash of hot sauce or ground red pepper to add heat.

Prep Time: 25 min • Cook Time: 1 hour • Yield: 6 servings
Ingredients:
1/3 cup ghee
1-3/4 cups almond flour
1/4 cup arrowroot flour
1/4 tsp salt
3 large eggs, at room temperature
1/2 cup maple syrup or honey
2 packets Dr. Kellyann's Collagen Creamer
2 tsp pure vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp baking soda
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Coat a 6-inch round cake pan with palm shortening or ghee and line it with parchment paper.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the ghee and set aside to cool slightly. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk together the almond flour, Collagen Creamer, arrowroot flour, and salt until blended.
Separate the eggs and place the whites in a medium bowl and place the yolks in another bowl along with the melted ghee, maple syrup, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Whisk to combine.
Add the egg yolk mixture to the large bowl with the flour mixture and whisk till the batter is smooth.
Using a hand mixer or the whisk attachment of your stand mixer, beat the egg whites until they look like softly whipped cream and hold soft peaks when you pull out the beaters, about 2 minutes. Set the egg whites aside for a moment.
Stir the baking soda into the batter and then, using a rubber spatula, immediately beat 1/3 of the whipped egg whites into the batter, mixing just until barely combined and some streaks remain. Gently fold in the rest of the egg whites into the batter, mixing until only a few streaks are left. Carefully pour the batter into the prepared cake pan.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted in the center of the cake comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan on a wire rack for about 5 minutes. Run a sharp knife around the edge of the cake and turn it onto the rack. Let cool completely.
Enjoy!

Berries and Whipped Coconut Cream
by Dr. Kellyann
on Sep 02 2020
Prep Time: 15 min • Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
1 can (14.5 ounces) coconut milk
2 cups fresh berries
1 tsp pure almond or vanilla extract
1 pack Dr. Kellyann's Collagen Creamer
2 tbs sliced almonds
2 tbs Caramelized Coconut Chips
Directions:
This requires a bit of forethought: place a can of coconut milk in the refrigerator, ideally overnight, but 3-4 hours will do.
When you're ready to eat, put the can of coconut milk, a metal mixing bowl, and beaters from the mixer in the freezer for 15 minutes. While the coconut milk is chilling, gently wash the fruit and pat dry with paper towels.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sliced almonds and stir continuously with a wooden spoon until the almonds turn golden brown, about 3-5 minutes.
When the coconut milk is cold, pour it into the chilled mixing bowl and add the almond extract and the Collagen Creamer. Whip on a mixer's highest setting until the milk is fluffy and has taken on the texture of whipped cream, about 5-7 minutes.
Divide the berries among four bowls, then top with a dollop of whipped cream. Sprinkle each bowl with some of the toasted almonds and caramelized coconut chips.
Enjoy!

Roasted Broccoli with Lemon-Chile Sauce and Anchovy Crumbles
by Dr. Kellyann
on Mar 16 2020
Humble broccoli gets a chance to shine in this quick-prep recipe. The anchovies add crunch and a rich, salty flavor.
Prep Time: 5 min | Cook Time: 20 min | Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
2 large heads of broccoli, cut into bite-size florets
Coconut oil spray
3 tbs Ghee
1/2 tsp Celtic or pink Himalayan salt
1/2 jar (3.5-4.5 ounces) anchovies in olive oil
2 tbs coconut flour
4 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 cup Chicken Bone Broth
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
Directions:
Preheat oven to 425F.
Arrange the broccoli florets on a baking sheet sprayed with coconut oil spray. Lightly spray the florets with more coconut oil and sprinkle with salt. Roast, undisturbed, until dark golden in most places, 20 to 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a small skillet, combine the anchovies with their oil and flour. Cook over medium heat, breaking up the mixture with a wooden spoon, until small, crunchy brown crumbs form, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
Place the skillet over medium-low heat and melt ghee. Add the garlic and cook until golden and very fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the broth, lemon juice, and pepper flakes and reduce to 1/3 cup, to 2 to 3 minutes.
Serve the broccoli drizzled with the sauce and top with the anchovy crumbles.
Tip: don't toss the broccoli stems! They have just as many nutrients as the florets.
Enjoy!
