Green Smoothie

Healthy, cleansing, and good, green smoothies are just AWESOME! My family has them every day, they are a great way to start your morning.


In a blender, blend...



  • 2-3 handfulls of spinach (it depends on how big your blender is)
  • 1 apple, cut in twelveish pieces
  • lots of water
  • 1/2 a bananna
Those are just the basics. Optional...

  • chia seeds
  • papaya
  • blackberries and mint
  • kale instead of spinach
  • coconut water
The frothy part may rise to the top- just stir it.


Comment and tell me if you like it :)

World Peace Cookies

My mom showed me Smitten Kitchen, which is an awesome food site/blog. World Peace Cookies is one of those (egg free) chocolate cookies that disappear as quickly as they appear.

Flatbread

I love Flatbread pizza. They have the most unique flavors- the squash and cranberry is awesome.
Their drinks are pretty good too. Who had the idea that maple syrup would taste good in lemonade?
Genius! You can always go there for good pizza!

  • blueberries, yogurt, lemon juice
  • pineapple, pomegranate
