It's time to start getting ready for summer, which means clean eating (but summer shouldn't be my excuse). We've been drinking lots of healthy smoothies. The one in this picture was our breakfast green smoothie. I don't measure because we'll end up drinking the entire thing at some point so nothing gets waisted.
Green Smoothie Recipe:
Almond milk, or you can use soy milk
plain greek yogurt
banana
1/2 mango
pineapple
flaxseed
cinnamon
pears
spinach, tons of it
- all my fruit, except for the banana was frozen so I didn't have to add ice. If you're fruit is fresh add ice. The yogurt makes it creamy and gives you more protein. Whenever we have fruit that is going bad we cut it up and freeze it, which is great to have for smoothies. Some other things I'll add to the smoothy is carrots, blueberries, strawberries, grapes, cantaloupe or any other berries. I will occasionally replace the spinach with kale. It does give a different texture but kale is very healthy.
Veggie Stir Fry Recipe:
garlic
onions
bell peppers
asparagus
jalapeno's
cilantro
kale
purple cabbage
a little teriyaki sauce
garlic salt and pepper
a little siracha on the top for a spicy kick
Saute' it all together and enjoy! So yummy and healthy.
