Homemade Marshmallows with Collagen Cocoa
by Krystle Drake
on Dec 01 2025
Homemade marshmallows are one of my favorite treats, and this version gets a gut-supporting upgrade with my Collagen Peptides for an extra boost of protein and nourishment.
They’re surprisingly simple to make with just a handful of ingredients. After a few hours of setting, you’ll have soft, pillowy marshmallows that pair perfectly with my Collagen Cocoa.
This cozy treat not only supports the gut, but also delivers protein and nutrients that benefit hair, skin, nails, and joints. Here’s to nourishing your body while enjoying something sweet this winter season!
Ingredients:
1.5 - 2 cups honey1 cup water (warm)2 tsp. vanilla6 TBSP. grass-fed beef gelatin1 cup of water1 tsp. Dr. Kellyann Collagen PeptidesPair with Dr. Kellyann's Collagen Cocoa or Bone Broth Hot Chocolate
Directions:
Soften the gelatin by adding gelatin to 1 cup of warm water. Stir and allow to sit.
While gelatin is softening, heat honey and water in a medium saucepan on medium to high heat until it reaches 235°F, stirring occasionally. It should be very bubbly.
Remove from the heat and, in an electric mixer or stand mixer, add the heated honey mixture to the softened gelatin.
Complete these steps quickly; you don’t want the honey mixture to cool down too much!
Whisk on high for 10 minutes. After the first minute, add vanilla.
When the mixture is thick and puffy, resembling marshmallow fluff, add Dr. Kellyann Collagen Peptides and mix for 1-2 seconds.
Put the marshmallow paste in a 9×11 baking dish lined with parchment paper. You can also add a pinch of arrowroot flour to the paper to prevent extra sticking.
Allow to set for 3-4 hours. Cut and enjoy with a nice, hot cup of cocoa.

Sriracha Honey Brussels Sprouts with Toasted Pecans
by Krystle Drake
on Dec 09 2024
Not only does this dish deliver the perfect balance of heat, sweet, and crunch, but it’s also packed with sulforaphane, the anti-inflammatory antioxidant essential for supporting a healthy liver and the body’s natural detoxification process. A flavorful, nutrient-packed side that’s as good for your immunity this season as it is for your taste buds!
Prep time: 45 -50min • Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients:
Brussels Sprouts:
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed & halved
2 tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp. coconut aminos
¼ tsp. hand-harvested sea salt
¼ tsp. black pepper, ground
1 tsp. ground mustard seed
Sriracha Honey Sauce:
1 tbsp. Dr. Kellyann’s Sriracha Chicken Bone Broth Powder
1 tbsp. raw Manuka honey
2 garlic cloves, peeled & minced
½” ginger knob, peeled & minced
1 tbsp. sriracha
1 tbsp. coconut aminos
1 tsp. apple cider vinegar, with the mother
3 tbsp. filtered water
Garnish:
¼ cup raw pecans, toasted & roughly chopped
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 400°F, and line a large baking tray with parchment paper. Toss the Brussels sprouts with the evoo, coconut aminos, sea salt, and ground black pepper. Roast for 25-30 mins, flipping halfway, until crispy.
While the Brussels sprouts roast, whisk together the Sriracha Bone Broth Powder, raw Manuka honey, garlic, ginger, sriracha, coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, and water. Set aside.
When the sprouts are done, remove from oven and lower heat to 350°F. Evenly toss the Brussels sprouts with the ground mustard seed powder. This simple step will significantly increase the sulforaphane content of the dish by adding an active source of the myrosinase enzyme, which activates glucoraphanin, the precursor to this powerful antioxidant.
Spread pecans on the tray and toast for 7 minutes or until fragrant.
Toss roasted Brussels sprouts in sauce, then top with toasted pecans. Serve to enjoy this season for the perfect balance of heat, sweet, and crunch!
To store, refrigerate in an airtight glass container to last for up to 3 days.

What Can You Pair With This Tomato Soup?
There's something comforting about a classic bowl of warm tomato soup paired with a melty grilled cheese sandwich. Plus, it's easy to make a keto grilled cheese using homemade keto bread or your favorite low-carb store-bought bread. Fill it with slices of cheddar, Monterey jack, or Gruyere cheese for a unique twist on a classic flavor.
In addition to being delicious, this tomato soup provides the incredible benefits of bone broth with its high concentration of minerals and nutrients. This easy recipe for homemade tomato soup can be a tasty addition to your lunch or dinner meal plan.
What Kind of Tomatoes Should You Use?
There are a few options when making homemade soup with fresh tomatoes. Whole tomatoes, roasted tomatoes, crushed tomatoes, or even tomato paste can all work well as a base. To add more flavor to your tomato base, use garlic cloves, red pepper, and yellow onion to create a delicious and nutritious puree.
To make the tomato puree, sauté the garlic, bell pepper, and onion in olive oil until soft and fragrant. Add tomatoes and cook everything down until it's thick and jammy.
You can balance out the acidity of the tomatoes with some chicken broth or chicken stock. If you prefer, vegetable stock or vegetable broth are also great options.
The great thing about making tomato puree is that you can experiment with different veggies, spices, and bone broth flavors to create unique flavor profiles. And since you can make it in batches, you'll always have some on hand to use in various recipes, including this easy tomato soup recipe.

St. Paddy's Peppermint Patty Cookies
by Alex Wittenberg
on Mar 09 2023
Peppers, potatoes, cabbage and carrots tend to get all the attention at St. Paddy's Day celebrations, but have you ever tried minty cookies? With a touch of coconut oil, peppermint extract, and cacao, these cookies are a healthy way to indulge this holiday — made with real, whole-food sweetness. Plus, they're made with coconut flour, giving them a cake-like cookie texture.
Prep time: 45 min | Cook time: 10-12 min | Yield: About 30 cookies
Ingredients
½ cup & 1 tablespoon coconut oil, melted
¾ cup raw cacao or unsweetened cocoa
½ cup raw honey
4 large eggs, at room temperature
½ teaspoon pure peppermint extract
1 cup coconut flour
2 scoops of Dr. Kellyann's Collagen Peptides
Equipment
Stand mixer
Sheet pans
Parchment paper or silicone baking mat(s)
Instuctions
In the bowl of a stand mixer, add the melted coconut oil, cacao or cocoa, and honey. Mix for about 2-3 minutes until well blended.
Add eggs and peppermint extract.
Add coconut flour, the Collagen Peptides and mix, until the flour is completely blended into liquid ingredients. Stop to scrape bowl if necessary. Blend until the mixture becomes smooth and glossy (about 2-3 minutes).
Gather dough into a ball and put in a covered container. Refrigerate for at least one hour (or put in the freezer for 45 minutes) before rolling out.
Line baking sheet(s) with parchment or silicone mat(s).
Preheat oven to 350 degrees and place racks on the top and bottom thirds of the oven.
Remove about ¼ of the dough, leaving the rest in the refrigerator, and roll into ¼-inch sheets on parchment or wax paper. Using a cookie cutter, cut out cookies and place on baking sheet.
Continue rolling out dough in batches, always keeping remaining dough refrigerated.
Bake for 10-12 minutes. Do not remove cookies from cookie sheet until they are cool or they may break.
NOTE: These cut out cookies aren’t just for St. Patrick’s Day. They are great Paleo cookies for any occasion… just use a different cookie cutter. The possibilities are endless.
These cookies deserve to be frosted with a Chocolate Ganache Frosting. To make mint frosting, substitute the vanilla with ¼ teaspoon pure mint extract.
