CLEAN BITE LIFE Healthy Cooking with Lindsay Rasure
I love all the vibrant colors that Christmas brings! I do not love all the artificial food colorings that are added during this time. Did you know they make dye free sprinkles? The brand Supernatural makes fun dye free sprinkles using quality clean ingredients. I bought the blend “Ugly Xmas Sweater” sprinkles for this bake! They use turmeric, spirulina, paprika, and vegetable juice to get the vibrant colors. Wouldn’t you rather consume that than Red 40, Blue 2, or Yellow 6? Enjoy making this super easy dessert for your Christmas celebration!
