Cinnamon Orange

The Holidays aren't really over yet.  I love the smells of orange and cinnamon combined and thought, why not try that in a smoothie!  Why not, indeed?

Cinnamon Orange Swirl 

1 large orange, peeled and sectioned
1 clementine, peeled and sectioned
1 100g container vanilla Greek yogourt
1 cup Almond milk
2 Tsp Cinnamon
Sweetener (to taste) - I added 1 packet of Sugar Twin
Ice

Absolutely decadent treat which inspired me to create another!!  Watch for it!

Hello Dahl

Soup's On!  Finished these babies last night so a quick trip to the vet this morning with Princess Xena, then I'm back in the kitchen!

Dahl Soup, 1 cup servings

Breakfast on the run this morning - all staples from the freezer/fridge/pantry so easy peasy!  If you want to see my list of house staples, you can check out this post here: Master List


Blueberry Filler

1 cup frozen blueberries
1/8 cup oatmeal
1 cup skim milk
1/4 tsp vanilla
Ice

Blend that baby!

Enjoy, be kind to yourself and others xoxo

Jumpstart!

So you think you can blend? Of course you can!  Jumpstart to the morning...a brand new smoothie recipe that'll kick your butt into gear and start your day off right :-)

Mango-Tango

1 cup of frozen or fresh mango (I used President's Choice frozen)
1/3 English cucumber (skin on for nutrients!)
1/4 cup of orange juice (non-sweetened)
3/4 cup of water or coconut water (again with my President's Choice)
1 handful pomegranate seeds (optional)
Ice (if needed)

This blend will make you dance throughout your day! Or, is that just me? ;-)

Chopped Out!

20 + kilos of fresh fruit, chopped and bagged into single servings and frozen, another 10+ kilos of frozen fruit purchased, pumpkin bagged in 1/2 cup servings and hamburger soup on the stove. The rest (Dahl soup, carrot and celery soup) shall wait until tomorrow, I am all chopped out!

OH MY.  The Holidays have been horrible to my body, lol.  I am back with a vengeance!  Watch for new recipes, new thoughts and much sharing.  HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
