Many Denver residents are increasingly concerned about what goes into the foods you make at home and feed yourself and the ones you love. While relatively new to the health food scene, many people are taking the possibilities presented by CBD as a health food to the heart. Even when it comes to making sweet treats that are fun to prepare and eat, CBD offers an element of healthfulness you can feel good about giving to those you love. Just make sure you choose the right kind of CBD ingredients and that everyone partaking can provide informed consent.
CBD Brownies and Muffins
Perhaps the most iconic CBD food in today’s fast-paced world is the CBD brownie. Not only is possible to purchase brownie mixes that have CBD oil as an ingredient in the mix, which is an excellent option for those who are less talented in the culinary arts department, but you can also use CBD infused oil or butter that you simply mix in with your favorite brownie mix off the supermarket shelf.
It’s not just brownies, but muffins you can make this way, too, opening the door to endless flavor possibilities for savory and sweet treats alike. Check out Weedmaps Denver dispensary information for residents seeking ingredients, pre-baked goods, and mixes alike.
If you’re ready to go it on your own and you trust your abilities in the kitchen, Taste of Home offers an outstanding CBD brownie recipe you can try at home. For those who know your way around the kitchen, this recipe is one you can whip up quickly allowing you to enjoy the delightful flavor and other benefits this delicious treat has to offer.
CBD Cookies
Continuing along the lines of baked goods with CBD, cookies are always a good choice to provide excellent flavor and can be quite fun to prepare. While there are always those who fancy nothing more than the perfect chocolate chip cookies (who doesn’t love these, right?), you’re not limited to one type of cookie when it comes to using CBD oil. You can simply whisk a little of the oil in along with the other wet ingredients (vanilla, butter, eggs, etc.). This means you can use CBD oil in your favorite type of cookies from oatmeal raisin cookies to peanut butter, and countless other variations in between.
In fact, you can find five amazing CBD cookie recipes at Scotch Valley Ranch, including no-bake cookies and healthy cookie dough bites.
Real Food with CBD
CBD is most famously associated with gummies and baked goods. But, did you know you can also use it in many of your favorite dishes? In fact, if you favor high-fat (healthy fats, of course) foods, you will find that CBD oil works particularly well with these types of dishes though you can add it to practically any dish. It is outstanding to use in salad dressings, marinades, pasta sauces, and even pizza sauce. You can also add it to soups, smoothies, and even to your scrambled eggs, omelets, or roast beef hash. In other words, it doesn’t have to be a sweet treat to work with CBD.
Some even proclaim that using CBD in high-fat foods like salad dressings, butter, and such makes it more quickly absorbed by the body so you can experience the soothing or healing effects even faster when using it this way. Especially when compared to the results people experience when using CBD on an empty stomach or after fasting.
CBD Smoothies and Healthy Drinks
Finally, a CBD smoothie is perhaps the world’s most perfect place to get a great dose of healthy fats, delicious fruit, and CBD for whatever ails you. No matter why you’re using CBD, whether it is to treat pain, inflammation, anxiety, or simply to help you find your own brand of inner calm and tranquility, a smoothie offers a portable potion to help you fuel your day when consumed in the morning or to help you relax at the end of a long day when consumed at night.
The great thing about cooking with CBD is that there is no right or wrong way to do it. Have fun and try mixing and matching textures and flavors to find your perfect balance. Whether you’re more into baking your food or you prefer to reduce calories in search of lighter fare there are plenty of options to consider for pairing your CBD consumption with the foods you eat in the course of your day.
The secret to success with all CBD cooking and baking is to use quality CBD ingredients. For this, it is wise to consider finding a local dispensary you trust and working with them to find the right CBD oils, mixes, and recipes for your flavor and your personal sense of adventure.
