  • Guava Berry Smoothie

    I can’t even believe how long it’s been since I’ve posted a smoothie recipe.  I blame the changing seasons that made me crave homemade bread and other baked goods and warming soups and curries.  I’m apparently not the only one who’s been craving less-than-healthy goodies.  Preston realized this weekend that his unhealthy cravings have been…

  • Blueberry Muffin Protein Smoothie

    A few days ago, I posted a picture of this smoothie on Instagram – if you follow me, you probably noticed how damn excited I was. This was an accidental creation that I am super proud of.  It was one of those mornings when I was running really late and wanted to make a fast smoothie…

  • Chocolate Chai Protein Shake

    Got a quick fantastic drink for you today!  I have been working on my own healthier vegan version of a Wendy’s frosty — this is not that recipe, it still needs to be perfected — but I’ve been going through some chocolate almond milk ice cubes in those recipe trials.  I’m also adding them to…

  • 100 Calorie Matcha Coconut Slushie

    Happy July 1st, folks!  I planned to do my final recap of my June Salad-a-Day Challenge today and post a salad recipe.  But I got home hot and thirsty and in need of a pre-dinner snack, so I whipped up this smoothie (the third day in a row I’ve made it) and decided the hot…

  • Endless Energy Strawberry Rhubarb Smoothie

      I made a light summer-ready smoothie this weekend with two new experimental ingredients. First up is maca.  Want some serious energy from a natural source?  Done.  Maca is a root.  You can buy it raw sometimes, but it’s difficult to find.  You can also buy maca powder, which has been dried and ground.  Maca…

  • Carrot Pineapple OJ + Green Smoothie

    Quickie post today!   Just a wonderful juice recipe that is fantastically sweet and refreshing.  Perfect for a summer morning.   Then I blended it into a smoothie with some greens.  Hope you enjoy one of these summer treats to cool you down 🙂

  • Papaya Lime Banana Smoothie

    Time for the spring and summer smoothies to start coming back!  This weekend was an amazing moment of summer – I fit in a bike ride, kayak trip, outdoor dive bar, and a couple little walks.  And a splotchy ridiculous sunburn (stupid spray-on sunscreen!), dehydration, and overall forgetting how to prepare for such fun activities.

  • Carob-Covered Strawberry Smoothie

  • Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Smoothie

    Got a smoothie for you today with some weird ingredients.  Oatmeal (but you’ve seen me do that again and again! and again! ) and an apple.  Blended with some more common smoothie ingredients.  It’s cinnamony deliciousness first thing in the morning.  That tastes like oatmeal cookie batter.  Soooo happy.

  • Blueberry Cashew Matcha Smoothie

    Got a quickie recipe for you today – a smoothie with green tea in it!  Yep!   Matcha tea powder blended in a yummy blueberry smoothie will definitely perk you up in the morning.  Plus I’m adding one of my new favorite ingredients, raw cashew butter.  It’s a great way to add some protein in your…
