Easy Homemade Coconut Milk Using Shredded Coconut
Kevin has turned into a dairy-free milk monster. He adds it to his ginormous bowls of protein oats, whips up 1-2 protein smoothies per day, and even drinks the stuff! Coming from a guy who used to live on frozen meals and Cherrios (with 2% milk)… we’ve come a far ways.
Mango Cream Smoothie
Check out the Banana Split Smoothie Recipe that I created yesterday using Silk Almond Milk! It’s a dairy-free, vegan smoothie with all the goodness of a banana split. Made healthy with fresh strawberries, pineapple, almond milk and dairy-free chocolate chunks. As soon as I understood the concept of marriage and being a bride, my life…
Banana Split Smoothie
Check out the Mango Cream Smoothie Recipe that I created yesterday using Silk Soy Milk! It is a creamy vegan smoothie made sweet with fresh grapes and frozen mango. The grapes sweeten the smoothie so there is no added sugar! The days are growing shorter, the wind gusts are getting stronger and 6am is a…
Red Rooster Smoothie
I am in love with light smoothies right now. Just a touch of fruit, a little water, a bunch of veggies and; if my body needs it, a scoop of protein powder, seeds or healthy oils, and I’ve got a big, summertime smile painted right across my face.
Triple Threat Green Smoothie
I always thought that a green smoothie had to be made with juice or milk. That it had to be sweet, thick and filling. And, because of the loads of healthy fats and protein, that a green smoothie just couldn’t be less than 300 calories.
Watermelon Smoothie Cooler
Do you find yourself drudging through your work day? Maybe the 2pm energy crash is a bit too familiar? My favorite way to boost my spirits in the mid-afternoon is to sit out in the sun, for 10 minutes or so, and sip on a healthy, refreshing drink. AND I have just the refreshingly light…
Healthy Lemonade
I got home from Calgary late Sunday night and all I could think about was lemonade. Not just any lemonade, the (good) homemade stuff. The 10 lemon crushing, finger stinging, water and sugar boiling, lemonade. And not just a glass of it, I wanted a big ‘ol pitcher of it.
Vanilla Nut Hemp Milk
Oh jeez, Calgary is rocking my world right now. I’m happy. I’m smiling. I’m all lit up. I attended my sister’s convocation (the scientific cookie of the family!), spent Papa’s day with my Dad, girls night with Mom… it’s been nourishing.
My new Omega 8006 Juicer
I am overly impressed with my new Omega 8006 Juicer. The feed chute on the 8006 is fairly small, so produce needs to be cut up into tiny small pieces. The prep work required to make a juice is longer than with my previous Breville juicer, but the juice that comes out of this beast…
Sweet Potato Chocolate Milk
Have you ever had one of those months that’s so packed with activities that you’re not sure if you’re going to mentally, physically or emotionally live to tell the tale? June is shaping up to be one of those months. While everything that’s going on is a bit overwhelming, it’s also very exciting, momentous, and…
