    sweet pea mango & ginger smoothie

    No Comments

    If you’ve been following along for awhile you know how much I love smoothies, especially ones with vegetables in them! There’s seriously no reason to make a smoothie without them! They are so easy to throw in and still have a delicious smoothie! Today’s smoothie is in celebration of spring so I decided to throw some sweet peas in it. If you are not used to adding vegetables to your smoothies, I’d say start with a quarter cup of peas and work your way up. As usual, it’s packed with lots of vitamins and antioxidants from the mango, peas and ginger! Add some healthy fats like a scoop of cashew butter or a small handful of pumpkin seeds to add to the absorption of antioxidants! Let me know if you make it and how you like it!

    sunshine smoothie

    I generally prefer warm weather but I do love the seasons for the wonderful variety of produce. However, towards the end of every winter there comes a time when I am sick of soup and root vegetables and just want sunshine! Citrus always saves the day bringing loads of vitamin C and beautiful shades of yellows, reds, and orange to go with it! This smoothie is a dose of much needed “sunshine”. And it feels appropriate since temperatures on the east coast will reach the 70s this week!

    spiced sweet potato smoothie

    No Comments

    If you’ve been following me on Instagram for a while this recipe might look familiar. I’ve shared it before as a pumpkin pie smoothie but today I am using sweet potato instead. Sweet potatoes are an excellent source of vitamin A. This smoothie alone will supply you with over 100% of your daily value! The bright colors of sweet potatoes come from antioxidants which are anti-inflammatory and possibly even lower the potential risk of heavy metal exposure.
