Summer is here. And whether you're pregnant, postpartum, or simply listening to your body, this season sometimes rhymes with heavy legs , loss of appetite , or lack of hydration . So at Monjour, we wanted to explore new delicious and beneficial ideas, designed to accompany all women, at every stage of their lives.

We were curious to discover the Jolly Mama recipe book , created by pregnancy and postpartum specialists. And we can tell you: we were won over . The Monjour team leafed through it, tested it… and savored it!

This book is a concentrate of colors, well-being, attention, and nutrients. It contains simple, seasonal recipes designed to nourish the body and soothe everyday aches and pains. Today, we're sharing our two favorite recipes , perfect for hot days, mild cravings, or moments of comfort.

Carpaccio “light legs” – freshness that gets you going

This ultra-fresh dish won us over with its simplicity... and its superpowers! Ideal for expectant mothers in their third trimester, or anyone prone to the sensation of heavy legs.

The ingredients:

• 1 beetroot

• raw or cooked

• 1 grapefruit (supreme + juice)

• 1 handful of pomegranate seeds

• ½ red onion

• 1 tablespoon of olive oil

Why we love it:

• Grapefruit and pomegranate are rich in flavonoids, which strengthen blood vessels.

• Beetroot , full of natural nitrates, supports circulation and oxygenation of tissues.

• It's a raw, vitamin-packed dish that's quick to prepare: a concentrate of energy and freshness.

A perfect recipe for a light, easy treat and to give tired legs a boost !

Anti-nausea ice cream – the sweetness that soothes

The name alone makes you want to try it, right? These homemade ice creams are a frozen comfort designed for the early stages of pregnancy, which are often accompanied by nausea. But they'll also delight any palate looking for something sweet and refreshing.

The ingredients:

• 1/2 lime

• 200 g pineapple

Why we love it:

• Ginger is known to naturally relieve nausea.

A real frosty hug for the body , to be enjoyed in the morning or as a snack.

A kitchen designed for women

What we love about this book is its caring and intuitive approach . The recipes are categorized by trimester , with ingredients selected for their targeted benefits: digestion, energy, hydration, morale, skin elasticity , etc.

And above all, always this desire to do things simply, well, and nourishingly.
Because eating well is already taking care of yourself . And at Monjour, we strongly believe in that.
