Root Veg Juice
Juice & Smoothie Week Post #3: What? Root vegetable juice? Yes. This is the weirdest one I’ve tried. After having my juicer for almost a year now, I’m finally starting to branch out from the very typical all-fruit or fruit-and-greens juices. It does take some working up to, cause some vegetables can be…

Doughy Morning Coffee Smoothie
Juice & Smoothie Week Post #2! Here’s the definition of a portable breakfast: your morning coffee and your morning oatmeal in one glass. Drinkable. Sounds weird, right? Well, it doesn’t taste weird! It tastes like a rich, doughy, blended coffee-flavored milkshake. So good.

Secret-Ingredient Orange Julius Smoothie
Welcome to my first (maybe annual) Juice & Smoothie Week! This week, nothing but fresh juices and delicious smoothie concoctions. Why are we celebrating such a festive occasion? Well, for several reasons. First, I have an excess of fruit in my freezer 🙂 Second, I have sooo many ideas for juices and smoothies and…

Watermelon Superfood Slushie
Remember ICEEs??? They were one of my all-time favorite childhood summer treats. Alright . . . I shouldn’t speak of them in the past-tense. I definitely have at least one every summer still.

Iskiate
What the heck is “iskiate?” This is a super-simple chia seed drink that I read about and had to test. I am reading this book called Born to Run, in which the author seeks out a Mexican tribe called the Tarahumara who are amazing world-renown runners (we’re talking major endurance runs and inhuman speed here),…

Coconut Almond Chai Smoothie
This is the breakfast to eat when you really want dessert for breakfast. And when you don’t have the time to make something like oatmeal cookie pancakes. It tastes like a milkshake, but is way more nutritious than any milkshake I’ve ever had! I absolutely love the flavor of chai – all those delicious…

Ginger-Lime Papineapple Agua Fresca
Reunited with my juicer at last! Oh juicer, how I have missed you. Such a welcoming beacon in a groggy dark morning. We must celebrate with something extra-special! So special I made up a word for it. Papineapple? Yeah. Ginger-Lime Papaya Pineapple Agua Fresca was an excessively long title (so I made it…

Guava Pina Colada Smoothie
Quickie post today! I’m trying to keep the posts coming even in the midst of my currently chaotic life. I was not a fan of the 10-day lack of posts! So I’ve scrounged up a quick post for you. Remember my lava flow sorbet? Coconut milk, pineapple juice, and vanilla bean…

Mango & Greens Smoothie
I see smooth bright beautiful green smoothies on other food blogs and am overwhelmed by jealousy over one thing: Vitamix! I don’t even have a proper blender. I’ve got my trusty immersion blender who does so much work for such a tiny guy! And there’s my boyfriend’s Magic Bullet. It hates me. Clearly it favors…

Fuchsia Beet Juice
I usually call all of my veggie juices “green juice,” no matter what their color is. But just look at this! It had to be re-named. And there’s nothing to it!
