My kids scraped this bowl clean just minutes after I set it in front of them. It was good that I had set aside a portion for Sean to try later, because there was nothing left at all by the time he made it to the kitchen.

When April and May hit is just means lemon desserts like iced lemon cake, lemon meringue pie, lemon cheesecake cookies and these lemon bars! There’s nothing better than a sweet and tart lemon recipe to finish of a party or dinner as we head into the summer months.

Lemon bars are one of those classic recipes that you probably think of when you think lemon treats. For good reason! They’re delicious.

The trick to a good lemon bar? Lots of fresh lemon juice and lemon zest.

You’ll also want a soft and buttery crust for your lemon bar recipe. All that gooey filling has to top something!

Ingredients for the Best Lemon Bars

You will need a few basic baking ingredients to make these bars along with a few fresh lemons. Here is what you will need to make this delicious recipe:

Crust:

• Sugar: just regular granulated white sugar
• Unsalted Butter: needs to be softened to room temperature
• Flour: all purpose flour is all you need
• Salt: cuts through the sweetness and tartness and enhances all the flavors
• Lemon Juice: the juice of about 1 lemon

Filling:

• Eggs: creates the richness and creaminess of the filling
• Sugar: adds sweetness and balances the tartness of the lemons
• Flour: helps thicken the filling and gives it structure
• Salt: enhances all the flavors
• Lemon Juice: fresh lemon juice is preferred and you’ll need 3-4 large lemons
• Lemon Zest: you’ll need the zest from about 1 lemon
• Powdered Sugar: used for garnish to balance out the tartness and to make the bars look extra pretty

The dough will likely be a little crumbly at this point so add in a bit of lemon juice unti

Sharing my thoughts on Shilajit and how I use it in my routine.

Hi friends! How are you? I hope that your week is off to a great start. I’m looking forward to barre this morning, and client calls this afternoon.

For today’s post, I wanted to chat about a hot topic in the supplement world: shilajit! If you’ve been curious about trying it, I’m excited to chat about what shilajit is, its incredible benefits, how it’s sourced, and take a closer look at Organifi’s shilajit gummies, weighing their pros and cons. (Just a lil note that you can use FITNESSISTA for 20% off at Organifi!)

Friendly reminder that I’m not a doctor and this post is not medical advice. I’m simply sharing my thoughts and experience.

What is the best Shilajit?

Shilajit, often referred to as “the destroyer of weakness,” is a potent substance that has been used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic medicine. Derived from the rocks of the Himalayas and other mountain ranges, shilajit is known for its numerous health benefits and unique composition.

What is Shilajit?

Shilajit is a sticky, tar-like substance that oozes from rocks in mountainous regions, particularly in the Himalayas. It is formed over centuries by the decomposition of plant matter and minerals, resulting in a rich, bioactive compound.

Benefits of Shilajit

Shilajit is revered for its wide range of health benefits, which have been documented in both traditional medicine and modern research.

Some of the key benefits of shilajit include:

Increased Energy and Stamina: Shilajit is known for its ability to enhance energy levels and combat fatigue, making it a popular choice among athletes and individuals with demanding lifestyles.

Improved Cognitive Function: Studies suggest that shilajit may support cognitive function, including memory, focus, and mental clarity.

Enhanced Physical Performance: Shilajit has been shown to improve physical performance and endurance, making it a valuable supplement for athletes and fitness enthusiasts.

Anti-inflammatory Properties: Shilajit exhibits potent anti-inflammatory effects, which may help alleviate symptoms of inflammatory conditions such as arthritis and joint pain.

Antioxidant Support: Shilajit is rich in antioxidants, which help protect cells from oxidative damage and reduce the risk of chronic diseases. By reducing oxidative stress on the scalp, shilajit may help prevent hair loss and maintain overall hair health.
