I started using maca powder for the hormonal benefits being that I have PCOS. I've only been mixing it in my oatmeal or smoothies. Thanks for giving me new ideas!
Mmmm sounds delish!
EverydayWithRaye does it help with that???
Raven De'aira is it helping? I found out about it in the nail shop shared my desire for a child to a respecting woman and she told me Maca on Amazon helped her and we both have PCOS that’s was so cool and reading you small comment keeps me positive Thank you so does it work for you?
Raven De'aira what is the benefit of maca to your health?
Thank you so much for teaching me about the benefits of maca along with other superfoods. I have been having smoothies everyday for the last few weeks and after just a few days of adding maca, spirulina and a few other super food powders I have noticed a major difference in my energy and mood. I wish I would’ve started his sooner.
Thank you so much for this video! I really like how you give a brief explanation of each product! Can you do recipes with kale, lentils, and cumin?
Something I absolutely love is adding maca in my pancake batter! Maca crepes with maple syrup 🤤
That's an amazing idea!

What is maca i dont understand plz tell me
I Love
this ,never use it before but I think I would try it ,looking tasty and nutritious
First time in your channel, I am glad you are talking about maca and quinoa, both Peruvian superfoods.
Just a reminder that maca is known as the Incas' viagra. :) In Perú we don't cook the maca, mostly we take it with juices.
Found your channel last week, I'm obsessed. We eat very similar and your videos encourage me to keep going. I follow a few other healthy eaters and vegans but your channel and recipes seem to match my current diet restrictions perfectly. keep up the good work.
I'm so happy to hear that and love having you here! Keep up the awesome work and keep me posted on how you're doing :) xo
I love maca I just usually add it to smoothies, these recipes look amazing can't wait to try them all! thanks so much!
+Shelita Williams same!! Can't wait to hear what you think of these 😘
I like the maca cacao rezipe, thanks girl :) Using brown sugar instead of the syrup though.
I love your spotlight series! Your videos are super helpful
+plnpunch I'm so glad! Let me know if you have any specific ingredients you'd like to see featured 😘
I use maca in my breakfast porridge and I love it :)
I love the spotlight series Alyssa very helpful thank you
I'm so glad! Let me know if you have any specific ingredients you'd like to see in the spotlight :)
Smoothie with coconut and almond milk, banana, wild blueberries, maca and cacao powder. First thing in the morning.. frozen strawberries are good too.
I ve heard so much about maca powder recently, but I wasnt sure in what kind of recipes I could use it. I will definitely go buy some maca to make those three recipes😋
I was so happy and excited when I saw you upload another video of this series!! Love it💕
Hope you give some of the recipes a try! Keep me posted on how you're liking it :)
Simply Quinoa I ordered Maca Powder after watching this video and my package arrived today. I m drinking that superfood hot chocolate while writing this comment🤣😋 I made my mom one as well and she just asked me, how I made it😊 It s delicious!! Thanks Alyssa💕
Thank you!!! My powder was just sitting in my cupboard and totally forget to use it!
+Shannon Lei hope you enjoy the recipes! 💕
yay this helped. I put maca powder in something recently .. ( in tea maybe) and it tasted horrible! this is a creative way to use it
Alyssa, I would find it very helpful if you also devote a video to recipes that use ground flaxseed
I just found some Maca powder at Sprouts Market! I’m excited to use it! Thanks for sharing your tips!
I found it at home goods
Thank you for all your great recipes
I just ADORE maca and can't get enough of it.. always add heaps of it to my recipes!
same!! I put it in absolutely everything haha
What's your favorite way to use it?!
I mix mine in milk , water, oatmeal lol so creative. But hey I get the benefits. All my curves have started showing and ive been taking maca for 2 months :) Never felt better.
Please keep adding more videos to this series Alyssa! I find these particular videos very helpful. My suggestion is to make a video with ideas on how to use ground flaxseed. This superfood has plenty of nutritional benefits but I haven't really seen many recipes that use flaxseed as one of the main ingredients (other than recipes like flax eggs and dressings, which cannot be consumed on their own). I would love to explore different ways to incorporate flaxseed into my diet. I used to add it to dishes like soups and stews but it didn't taste that great. On the other hand, I noticed that whenever I needed physical healing, I healed faster when I consumed flaxseed.
That's why I am very interested in learning how to prepare food that uses a good amount of ground flaxseed (in order for us to experience its health benefits) but also tastes nice.
Add it to a smoothie🤤😋😋😋
You should have more subscribers the way you structure this video was amazing feels like you gave just the perfect kind of information...
I just made the protein balls and it is delitious👍
yuuummm! I just subscribed and so glad i found you :)
I’ve been seeing other videos saying the gelatinized version is better than the raw version, what’s yalls opinion?
Yasssss! Love these recipes!
Gah! I’ve been binge watching your recipes! Love! Now to actually try some. Looking forward to actually enjoying quinoa when I cook it instead of leaving it in the fridge till it goes bad.🥴🤭
Trader Joe's now has organic maca powder from peru! Just got it recently & it's really yummy over my oats in the morning 💚🙌

Can u help me ro get maca from peru. Im from india
Shoprite, and Walmart
Kathy Charcho can you please gone for me also some maca organic
awesome vid.superb thanks for sharing
Just found a maca powder at Walmart responsibly priced compared to any other high protein powder thank you for further recipes I make mine in a daily smoothie for breast fest drink
I add maca, cinnamon and cacao to protein shakes in the morning and rice pudding in the evening. Both are great. I also add wheat bran to the rice pudding. If you use tinned rice pudding, it's best to add a bit more liquid, depending on how much of the other ingredients you are adding, although some really cheap rice puddings have more liquid anyway and are generally fine. Alternatively, it's easy to just make your own rice pudding, which you can do with just rice and type of milk or milk substitute and something for sweetness in about half an hour, in which case you can control the amount of liquid. The other ingredients can just be stirred in once it has cooled.
I do LOVE adding them to my smoothies and shakes!
Hi love the recipes... however i've read that the raw maca powder you use is unhealthy and that you should use the gelatin version... do you have a say on this???
Awesome recipes
yay thanks for sharing!! Maca powder is soo good for you and I'm always looking for new ways to incorporate it into my meals!! Much love
So glad you found it helpful!
Macapowder meening in telugu pls
Great video!
I have maca powder added to hot coconut milk before going to bed, you can pour some coconut sugar if you like it sweet. Very simple and good.
Wow thanks so much
Thank you!
Thanks you ,I just buy it I gonna try it
I would love to see 3 different zucchini noodle recipes! You are so caring and really listen to your subscribers!
agreed!! I've been trying to steer away from normal pasta and am super intrigued by zucchini noodles as a healthy alternative. I love spaghetti squash as well!
Great idea! In the meantime check out the blog inspiralized.com!

Yummy 😋 thanks
it's also good with ginger + milk + a sweetener (and some cinnamon)
could you please do a spotlight video on coconut flour/chickpea flour? :) I love the series!
Adding it to the list!
Ex
Hi,awesome recipes, one question for you please; I heard that MACA can lose its nutritional values when use in hot drinks. So I’ve been trying to just have it in uncooked form.(like smoothies ) thank you
Can we boil it in milk
Hi, appreciate your videos and blog. I've had to move to plant based diet due to allergies and intolerance. I've got some lucuma powder as a natural sweetener with my quinoa order. I'd like to know more. Also does quinoa have to be cooked or can it be just soaked then used? Can't have oats and quinoa flakes are expensive here. Many thanks
+Dawn Heald you can blend up soaked quinoa to make a pizza, but you can't just eat it soaked. Lucuma is on my list to talk about, so thanks for reminding me!!
that was very interesting thank you. it would be awesome if you did one on either tofu, protein powder, or a protein based meal/snack..idk. I really liked this.
Thanks for the suggestions!
So Great
Thanks Alyssa! Which maca powder do you like on Amazon? I didn't catch where you put that info.
It's in the description box up above :)
Can i substitute the cashew butter for almond butter? For the limón balls ?
Can i replace the mayble syrup with something else for the superfood hot chocolate?
Can you do
wheat grass
And spirulina
does it have to be cycled or can u take everyday ? not sure if you mentioned it
I need help! Does maca powder help with hormonal acne? And does it help balance hormones even if you are on birth control?
Stacey Tomsett it balances hormones so it’ll help but I suggest using condoms over birth control . It’s literally depressing pills . Look up the truth about margret Sanger it wasn’t meant for good use and they use the same chemicals
I couldnt believe it when i found spirulina and maca powder for soooooo cheap at my local supermarket so lemme try these!!!!!!
+Sarah K yessss!! Can't wait to hear what you end up making 😍😋
Simply Quinoa i made the most delicious smoothie bowl/nicecream EVER!!! I put one frozen banana, a handful of frozen blueberries, handful of spinach, spirulina, maca, chia and hemp seeds and blended it with almond milk and it tasted sooo good because of the combination of blueberries and spirulina, they give it a very different berry flavor!! I didnt taste the banana at all!
Do you have a video for camu camu powder recepies? if not, can u make one? Thanks.
I’ll add it to the list!
Hi I’m looking at buying this is it worth it x
Can u use it with primrose oil in same time
In each of your recipes, what is considered as a serving to really gain the benefits from the added maca powder (i.e. 1 lemon protein ball vs. 4 lemon protein balls)?
A nutritionist told me to start with 1 tsp of maca powder a day and then move up to 1tbsp. Take it during weekdays and then skip it on the weekend. She emphasized getting gelatinized maca powder so that you reap all the benefits.
Probase Nutrition makes the best superfood powders I have ever tested.
Hello, i was wondering if i could take maca root, black seed oil and also multivitamins, all in one day? :D
Thank you very much in advance!
I bought the raw maca, do i need to cook it if i want to mix with protein?
In the third recipe, is full cream coconut milk the same as coconut cream?
Where do you buy the cocoanut and quinoa flakes?
Elaine Vega try a health food store
Can I take with warm water? Best time to take?
Can you use any other nut beside Brazil nuts?
I live in Nigeria, Delta State Asaba. Please where can I get Maca + Maple syrup. Thank you
does heating the maca powder (i.e. from the baking) get rid of its nutritional benefits?
I was wondering the same thing.
Meal prep option? Please explain.

Does this have any caffeine? For evening drink?
Maca delicious!!! 😋😋😋 en Perú hay la fruta misma , antes era facil de conseguir , ahora los chinos se han llevado todo!!!!!😢😢😢
Does heating the maca like in the granola recipe destroy any of its benefits?
it does, maca is in fact very sensitive to heat. but it still tastes amazing in granola :) there's also not a huge amount in the whole batch so I guess to experience all the benefits you would have to eat the whole batch ;)
Can hemp protein powder be used instead of vanilla protein powder as I've got some of that.?
+Dawn Heald I think so, yes!
Maca in milk shakes, any milk shakes yum!!
Yes zoodles recipes😊
I just got my powder today and tried to make a smoothie and I puked. Not cause it was gross I just can’t stomach certain textures of food. (Blenders up fruit and juice is a chunky texture) So I’m going to try it in my oatmeal hopefully that sits better
I love this kind of video about taking 1 ingredient star ! So interesting. Can you do it with: acai , camu camu , cacao , spirulina , chlorulina , baobab , barsley , chlorella , lucuma , goji berry powder , beetroot powder ?? Thank you so so much !
I am watching your video from France ;)
xx
Love those ideas! I have a lot of them on my list already so stay tuned :)
I've gotten different answers on whether it is better to take raw or gelatinized maca root. I've gotten different answers on which one is more potent
Gelatinized r better
Can Maca be used in pastas like ravioli and speghetti @SimplyQuinoa
Yes
Great tips! I just bouht maca, because it was on sale, but i only used it with water (it tastes horible :P), will definitely try some of these :D
Let me know which one you try first! xo
Saniasta Happy BFF to my sisters, my forever friends, my laugh and cry buddies, my forever LOVES! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Where did u get it?
Ayy' Macarena 😂
🤣🤣🤣
What is your opinion on raw vs gelatinized maca controversy
I personally like gelatinized better!
Maca always boosts your sex drive! Would be a great addition for someone looking to raise their libido.
Thanks for the tip! xo
Little Otter hell yeah
Since you mentioned acai powder, maybe that could be the next video in this series!
That's definitely on the list! But kimchi is up next ;)
I WILL PUT IT IN MY CREAM OF WHEAT
ZsaZsa Rodeo, mmmmmm ☺️!!!
Do you still taste the maca powder? I reaaally hate the taste of it but really want to have it as I already bought it and my hormones are pretty crazy right now...
What it taste like?
@@jojotoosmooth8913 I almost threw up when I tasted it, so gross!!
-1 tspMaca+fried eggs
-1tsp Maca+oats+honey
-The taste can be strong so putting it on toast and putting chocolate spread over cancels the taste.
How many times can we use maca per day?
is it use in increasing size?
Wow from egypt
Where can get this maca root to buy
I love this series! I am buying mama powder next ;)
Woo hoo!
Simply Quinoa I live in Nigeria there is no maca here and I need it so much plzz helped me
its able taking maca powder when you are doing keto diet..?thank you
4g carb a table spoon of maca
I tried making my smoothies with maca, and what is normally a delicious smoothie became gag worthy! Is there something wrong with my maca or is it something I need to work up to enjoying?
You’re so ❤️❤️
Hi. I did try yesterday. What my tummy got upset.
Does it loose some of its beneficial or kill its properties when heating up Maca?
Wondering the same
can I substitute the brazil nuts with other nuts? (:
Definitely!
