BONUS: Join the FREE 15 day gluten free superfoods CHALLENGE to incorporate more gluten free superfoods from this meal plan into your diet. Do you have what it takes to be a superfoods super star??
Imagine Molly Shannon, from Saturday night Live, bouncing into your kitchen announcing you’re the next “SUPERSTAR!” Make that SUPERFOODS “SUPERSTAR!” You’re totally imagining it right now, aren’t you? I am.
Well friends, that’s what I am proposing for this month’s gluten free meal plan.
We’ve rounded up our favorite gluten free superfoods recipes (from the blog), as well as some pretty amazing Nourishing Superfoods Bowls recipes (from fellow bloggers). Yes, those are FREE COOKBOOK RECIPES all nicely bundled here for you. Why? Because that’s how we roll. Actually, we just really want you to feel super and loved and nourished. Sound good?
This meal plan and challenge can help you do just that! Plus you’ll get a chance to learn more about superfoods, which superfoods make you feel best, and so on and so on. Not to mention a handy dandy meal plan tracker, grocery list, and prizes. OMG I am so feeling like Dr. Andrew Weil and Oprah in one! That’s a good thing.
Okay okay, let me me explain the details here. And FEEL FREE TO LEAVE QUESTIONS in the COMMENT SECTION.
How to Be A Gluten Free Superfoods SUPER STAR
Here’s a brief outline of the way the gluten free superfoods challenge works. It’s super simple! Read on for detailed info.
- ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE
- Use our downloadable tracker/planner to TRACK YOUR WORK
- Eat, enjoy, and SHARE YOUR SUCCESS!
Gluten Free Superfoods Challenge – The Challenge Details
- For a period of 15 days (May 1st – 15th, 2018), add more of our KEY superfoods (graphic below) into your diet!
- The winner will be whoever is the most consistent overall in using a different variety of superfoods each day. You don’t have to eat them all in one day, that might be weird. But adding just 2-3 different ones (from below) can help A TON! Most of these superfoods will be highlighted in the meal links below.
How Tracking the Superfoods Challenge Works:
- Download our tracker/bullet journal or create your own planner/tracker.
- Each day, track the superfoods you ate, including information on how you incorporated them into your gluten free diet.
- At the end of each week, send in your progress/tracking to [email protected]. If you download and use the tracker, you can email us your progress every 2-3 days and give us your suggestions! We will also be creating a seperate FACEBOOK GROUP for accountability, so stay tuned for that.
- TRACKING BONUS!! Share photos on Instagram, using hashtag #superfoodschallenge, tagging @cottercrunch. If you sign up for the email list (or are already a subscriber), you will get BONUS recipes from the cookbook and a PDF with all the health benefits of each superfood list. Yep, my nerdy nutrition tips for you all you join the list.
Extra Credit! Send in your journey “highlight reel” for a chance to be featured on Cotter Crunch’s Instagram stories! We want to see videos of you making recipes, what’s helping you with the challenge, what your struggles are, how you’re feeling, etc. Snap a 15 second video of you or a friend making the recipes, chatting about how you feel, shopping, etc. Then email it it to [email protected].
Gluten Free Superfoods Challenge PRIZE PACKAGE
As mentioned above, the winner will be whoever is the most consistent overall in using a different variety of superfoods each day. That healthy superfoods eater will receive:
- TWO (2) copies of “Nourishing Superfood Bowls Cookbook,” one for you, and one for a friend!
- Amazon gift card
- A featured shout out on our social media pages and here on the blog.
Great news, right?!

Holy smokes, those dirty chai breakfast bowls! I love this new challenge in incorporating more superfoods into your diet! I’m going to incorporate a lot more red cabbage, beans, tofu, onions, nutritional yeast, and LOTS of dark chocolate (duh) into my meal plan this week. I haven’t gotten the chance to buy sweet potatoes or fruit this week, but those will be part of the meal plan next time!
